<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">hmm. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So it's still the end of July and I haven't skipped blogging about the happenings of the Fant household?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Cool.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I guess that means the girls just turned 5 months old, haven't learned to crawl yet, still aren't sleeping through the night, Bryson is in a phase of horrible tantrums, we're still in our old house without a thought to pack up and move and I am running SO low on patience and sleep I can't even think straight.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">OR, all of those things are completely in the past and I have an outrageous amount of life to catch up on. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">yep. most definitely the last option. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I don't even know where to start, but I'm going to try to at least try to hit some highlights of our lives in the last 5 months. :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Stay tuned, I'm going to <em>try</em> to update this little blog over the next few days :) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Michael had been planning a "boys campout" in the cottage and Bryson was beyond thrilled about it!! The cottage is usually where my cousins sleep when they come, or Trey, or sometimes Michael and Brandon sleep when we need extra space. To Bryson it's associated with "the big boys" and he seriously couldn't contain his excitement!! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This has been the BEST month yet!! {well, at least the last week and a half ;) }</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">First things first. The girls started taking prevacid after their appointment. I felt like it really helped control their reflux during the day and during the night. BUT they still weren't sleeping well. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Michael and I were both up with them almost all night, every night. We started working in shifts; I went to sleep soon after Bryson went to sleep and the girls were down and he would be "on baby duty" from 10-2 and then we switched. I was up with the girls after 2 and he would sleep. If both of them work up crying, then we both had to be up. And guys, when I say they were crying, I'm talking full on body flailing, tears flowing, screaming crying. I could <em>never ever</em> have survived without Michael. He <strike>was </strike>is my rock. I spent so many days in a complete daze from only getting 2-3 hours of sleep most days. That's just not going to cut it when I have to take care of 3 kids during the day. It was so bad that Michael was seriously looking into a night nanny for a few weeks just to give us a bit of sanity...and sleep. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I was on board with the nanny, but I knew that even if we had someone here with the girls, it wasn't going to fix the original problem....whatever it may be. It would just buy us time and allow us to catch up on sleep. Even though I coveted sleep, I needed to fix their problem. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Since I felt like their reflux was under control, <em>something</em> else had to be the problem. After really thinking about it, I truly felt like they just needed sleep. Desperately. They just didn't know HOW to sleep. They had been "sick" basically their entire short little lives {RSV, thrush, terrible reflux} that I (we) always rocked/patted/shushed/<em>helped</em> them go to sleep. They didn't know how to sleep and it was my fault :( Yes, I know all "the rules" about babies and sleep. I've read it a million times. I just couldn't bear to see my girls screaming when the nasty bubbly acid could have been making its way up and down their tiny bodies causing awful discomfort. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After researching several different methods of sleep training, I picked the one I thought would work best for us, watched a ton of videos, got Michael on board with "the rules" and started it the next night. It was ROUGH at first. Really rough! But amazingly enough, it was amazing! They each only woke up THREE times that night. BLISS!! The next night got even better and now, they maybe cry for a couple mins and then fall asleep. We have to go put in a paci every once in a while, but that's nothin'! They both only eat once in the middle of the night, which I don't mind one bit. I'm usually only up for a little over an hour and then we're all back asleep again. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Since we started sleep training, they go to sleep at 6:30 and sleep about 10 hours, eat, then go back to sleep until 7:30. Their naps still stink, but I'm still holding out hope they will nap longer than 40 minutes one day ;)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I really feel like I'm not making enough milk for both of them throughout the day. I wish I could just know for sure. Gah! Thankfully, They do love solids! We got the official "ok" for oatmeal and veggies at the 4 months appointment and they love their food! Madelynn took to it really quickly and Emily had to figure out her tongue, but now, they're all business. They eat oatmeal and a veggie twice a day and love carrots, sweet potatoes, acorn & butternut squash. But, they are SO darn messy when they eat that they have to be completely stripped down and then hosed down in the sink afterwards! haha They scarf the food down, but when I turn to feed the other one, they shove their hands in their mouths and then wipe their hands aaaaall over their bodies!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I LOVE watching the girls interact. Every single time I nurse them, they hold hands or have their hands all over each other's heads. They navigate towards each other on the floor and have kind of started "playing" with each other. They're both getting good at grabbing toys and have started putting a couple toys in their mouth. Therefore, they grab each other and put each others body parts in their mouths :) It's precious! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I know I've said it before, but it continues to amaze me how similar they are. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They are mirror images of each other when they're playing on the floor and eating. They poop within minutes of each other most of the time. But they also have precious individual personalities.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Emily: is the talker. Well, it sounds more like a bird squawk, but still. She's in a hurry to go nowhere, but doesn't like staying in the same spot very long. She's decided that she likes to move and be change positions often. She doesn't like to be left alone and she will definitely let you know that! She really likes to play in the jumparoo and walker and make the toys sing. She gives the most adorable smiles and wiggles and shakes and gets so happy in the morning when she sees me coming to get her up from her crib!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Madelynn: is the mover and groover. Since she figured out how to roll, she is quite content being on the ground rolling around. She has started interacting with toys and loves the little stuffed doggy that sings and plays music. When it goes off, she'll grunt and shake her body trying to get to it. She's been chewing on her hands and clothes for a month, but just recently started chewing on toys. She really enjoys jumping in the jumparoo to make it play music. She's a little more stingy with her smiles and coos, but they are so sweet when she gives them!</span></div>

Since the girls started sleeping SO much better and I'm finally starting to feel like a normal person again during the day, we decided it was time that he stayed home with us full time. I was craaaaazy nervous about how he would be, but he adjusted great! We all try to get out of the house in the mornings to keep us from getting stir crazy. ;)</span></div>

<span id="goog_1032730135"></span><span id="goog_1032730136" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We went to the lake again for the 4th. It's always such a special time because my mom's side of the family comes up from Houston. We don't get to see them nearly enough!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Everyone got there Thursday night/ Friday morning and hung out and talked and did a lot of catching up. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then it was time for fireworks as soon as the sun went down!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Bryson was really excited this year. He was perfectly fine watching from the sidelines again this year (which I am perfectly ok with) as everyone was shooting the fireworks from the dock. It's just a matter of time until he joins in the fun :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The water was so low. It was so low that we couldn't keep the ski boat in the boat slip, so we had to anchor it a ways away from the dock in the middle of the water. </span></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Bryson wanted to go out in the float <em>so</em> badly. It was his first time, so we wanted to make sure it wasn't going to scar him for life. My dad started out really slow. I asked B if he was having fun and he shrugged his shoulders and said "sure...we can just go back to the big boat I guess." I reminded him about the hand signals and he can tell Papa to speed up, and that's exactly what he did! He kept signaling to speed up. Over and over! Then to go in circles. We were catching air going over the waves and he was having the BEST time!! I was giggling watching him get so excited! Then, out of nowhere, the little dare devil <em>stood up</em> in the float! I have no idea how he even knew how to do that; he hadn't seen anyone do that before! I'm so glad he had such a fun time on the float. I have sooo many memories of being pulled in the float at my grandparents' lake house growing up. I'm so excited for him and the girls to be able to make the same memories :)</span></div>

We spent a nice Father's Day with both of our families.<br>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
We went to my parent's house for lunch with the usual suspects and most of my dad's side of the family. It was the first time they all had seen Em & M & Ellie, so that was fun.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
I had just gotten a new phone the day before and it didn't have a cover on it yet. Since my previous phone and phone before that both had shattered screens, I was crazy nervous about even <i>looking</i> at my phone, let alone pulling it out to take pictures. I know, I'm crazy! So no pictures from my phone, but plenty from my mom's :)</div>

We went over to Michael's family's house for dinner. The girls got to meet a bunch of new family over there, too! I didn't pull my phone out until close to the end because, well, paranoia. But I snapped a few pictures :)</div>

We are so thankful for such wonderful, Godly dads that taught us both the importance of family, that God always comes first, and to be silly and to always find the joy in life. We are so blessed!</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
And Michael. He is the greatest Daddy I could ever have dreamed of for our three kids. Watching him play with Bryson and the girls makes my heart smile. When my patience is lacking, his is still strong. He is constantly encouraging and uplifting. I am so so thankful he is by my side. </div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We've gotten many more smile and coos this month and it so much fun. They don't talk nearly as much as Bryson did at this age, so maybe they're going to be a little more reserved and laid back? Ha, who knows! :)</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They're <strong>personalities</strong> are continuing to develop. They really seem to have the same patterns as in my tummy. When I was pregnant, I had to do kick counts with Emily just to make sure she was still there some days while Madelynn was beeboppin' away 24/7. And now, Emily is usually pretty content just sitting in her bumbo or laying on the ground while Madelynn likes to always have something infront of her to keep her attention. I'll lay them both on the ground to go help Bryson or rotate laundry and come back 2 minutes later and Em is in the exact spot chewing on her hands and Madelynn has completely done a 180 spin and still moving. :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Both of them chew on their hands like mad. They try to hard to shove them in as hard and far back as they can and they get choked up on them, pull them out, catch their breath and then repeat the whole process over again.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Right after they turned 3 months, I decided I was going to do whatever it took to make them learn how to <strong>sleep on their backs</strong> in their own cribs. They were so used to being all cramped and cozy in my tummy and then swaddled tightly in their inclined bouncy chairs, that when they were laying flat in their open cribs, they just freaked out. I spent a loooong time trying to help them adjust, but most nights, out of pure exhaustion, I just ended up putting them in their chairs and they were sound asleep within seconds. I don't know if their reflux bothers them or it just that's what they know and love. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I've been sleeping in their room (thank goodness we decided to put a bed in there!) for the past couple weeks because they wake up so often in the middle of the night. I have tried eeeeverything to get them to stay asleep. I know their little bodies need continuous sleep and so do I! Some nights it's back to the newborn days where I'm <em>lucky</em> if I get 4 hours in. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Last week, Emily rolled over in her sleep and slept of her stomach. She slept so great!!! I was thrilled!! Sadly, she only did it a couple times and now has seemed to forget how to roll. I tried "helping" her a few times, but no way Jose. If she can't do it herself, she's not having it at all. You better believe we practice rolling over often during the day :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">These poor girls hardly <strong>sleep</strong> at all. They are awful sleepers at night and only cat nap during the day. 30 mins here, 45 mins there. I knoooow they are so sleepy, but they just cant sleep. They just cry and scream instead. Most days they cry so much that I can hardly put them down for a diaper change without streams of tears. :(</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Both of them still completely refuse <strong>bottles</strong>. As in, they scream like crazy as soon as it's in their mouth. I love love nursing them, but it would be so nice to be able to give them a bottle once in a while. Also so I know exactly how much they eat. I always worry that they're not getting enough.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">That being said, we started solids a week before they turned 4 months. I started out with oatmeal and they both loved it! I'm only doing it here and there until we have their 4 month checkup to make sure their dr is on board.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">They nurse great. I still tandem feed them during the day and separately at night. They usually eat every 2.5 hours during the day and usually have one long stretch of 7ish hours at night (between feedings, but not consistent sleep)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">SO, basically, in a nut shell: they are grumpy, sleepy, hungry girls. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My heart aches watching them so sad all day long. I tried everything trying to make them happy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So finally, a week before they turned 4 months, I decided to stop giving them <strong>Zantac</strong>, their reflux medicine. There is rarely ever a negative side effect with the medicine, but I was desperate. I didn't care if all their reflux came back, I just needed to rule it out. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Folks. Within a day of having them off of it, we saw a huge, humongous, amazing difference in them!! I couldn't believe it!! Not a single tear ALL day long!! Fortunately, it was on Father's Day, so we had a lovely, peaceful day!! I still can't believe how terribly they reacted to the medicine. I REALLY started to enjoy the girls and being silly with them. Since they were on Zantac for 2 months, I feel like they missed out on a full 2 months of strengthening their little bodies with floor time. So now, we're playing catch up big time!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Once they were off the medicine, we finally decided it was ok to put them in the nursery at church. There was no way I was going to drop them off for a few hours and just let them scream them whole time. But we took them and they were great!! No grumps at all! I was thrilled! It was so good for me to be in church. It was so good for my soul :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We had their 4 month check up a week and a half after they turned 4 months. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So they were off Zantac for 2 weeks. During the daytime got a million times better, but nothing changed at night, We were still up with the girls for hours and hours with them screaming. It was awful. Their doctor was incredibly perplexed as to why they had such a terrible reaction to Zantac, but 100% sure they still they had reflux, which is why sleeping was so terrible for them. He prescribed Previcid and hesitantly, I gave it to them. It seemed to help a lot! (more on this in their 5 month post...)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyway, their <strong>checkup</strong> went great! He was very pleased at their growth and development. Always music to a worried momma's ears!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I had to take the girls to the appointment by myself this time, so it was no fun trying to juggle them for their shots :( But they did awesome. It was waaay past their nap time, so they passed completely out afterwards and ended up taking a 3 hour nap!! A Huuuuge change from the normal 30 min nap!!</span></div>

I can blog from my phone! (What rock have I been hiding under!??) There's hope for this little ol blog after all! Since most of my pictures are on my phone, I can blog when I'm up for hours on end In the middle of the night. Ha! Just ignore all the typos :)<div><br></div><div>Anyway, the girls had their first food today! I've been toying with the idea of starting them on oatmeal for a few weeks and went ahead and tried it out today. </div><div><br></div><div>The girls absolutely positively completely refuse a bottle. I get nervous that they're not getting enough to eat since I can't tell how much they're actually consuming. They always <i>seem</i> full and satisfied after a feeding, but I'm fantastic at second guessing myself, especially this time around. Plus, it will give them a little added time to work on the motor skills of spoon feeding before they're really ready for solids.</div><div><br></div><div>I wasn't really expecting they would <i>eat</i> very much, especially since they are on the younger side for oatmeal.

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We have had the most incredible fields of sunflowers at the beginning of Summer! They are all up and down the major highways. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Since our "Bluebonnet" pictures bombed, I wanted to try and get a few with the sunflowers. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Bryson was excited because we've been talking about the enormous flowers and how they are taller than him and bigger than his head. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It was really hot outside, but I <em>thought</em> it would be alright since we would only be out there for a few minutes. NOT. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Who am I kidding? I should just give up on getting pictures for a while! haha</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The girls were NOT having it. it was hot, the sun was in their eyes no matter where we went, and well, they're just cranky. ;) Fortunately, as soon as we picked them up, they calmed down.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Bryson was running around talking to all the other families taking pictures telling them his life story (clearly we need to talk more about stranger danger with him. The kid has never met a stranger.) He could not have cared less about our pictures, he just wanted to go talk to the other kids!</span></div>

The kid loves water!! He's so happy to be taking baths again. He only had a hand full of baths while I was pregnant because I could barely sit let alone bend over and bath him. He always took showers, which he also loves now!</div>

We kept telling B not to push out the lens on his glasses, but he chose to do it anyway. When it finally fell out, he had to act happy about it, even though he was pretty bummed they actually broke, so he put them on his face and said, "see, these are perfect now. I can touch my eye!!" haha! yes bud, thats exactly what sun glasses are for ;)</div>

Going anywhere with the girls is a big ordeal. I don't have the luxury of just running to the store real quick anymore. I usually go on the long trips at night after everyone is asleep. But when I do take them out, everyone stops me to look at them and ask about them. One of my friends that has twins says she feels like a D-list celebrity and its soo trure!! :)</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I feel like things finally started to "click" at the end of this month. I feel like I'm finally kind of starting to "learn" them a little more and know what they like and dislike, when they need to be wrapped up to fall asleep and when they just need their paci. It has been so hard not "knowing" them and their needs. I've told Michael so many times that I feel like I'm less than a first time mom this time around. I felt pretty confident when Bryson was a baby. This time around, not at all. It's so hard scrambling through the days... BUT it really is slowly getting better. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It's so neat to watch their "identical-ness". When I feed them together, they eat the exact same way and then stop within seconds of each other. They hit developmental mile stones at almost exactly the same time (Emily rolled over a day before Maddy though), they cry/scream in the same pitch, etc. :) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">They still spit up quite a bit, but not nearly as much as before! Still, 100% of tummy time involve some kind of spit up from each of the girls. And I have to drape a blanket over myself when I burp them, because a good amount of the time, it's gunna come spewing. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">For the past couple weeks, my mom and Debbie, a family friend, have been coming over for a couple hours once a week. My mom watches Ellie during the day, so she gets to come hang out with Em & M :)</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">They are nursing about every 2-3 hours. I'm working hard to get them to stretch it out to 3 hours, but sometimes they just can NOT wait that long. During the day I tandem feed them, but in the middle of the night, it has to be individually or they would get choked up. I also feed them by themselves if I'm at my parents or inlaws house because, well, there is just <i>no</i> way to tandem feed discretely!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">We're working on getting them to take bottles right now. Neither will take a bottle from me, so I have to enlist help. Michael has given Madelynn one bottle and my mom and Debbie gave the girls a bottle last week. I think they are totally uncoordinated drinking from a bottle because both of them swallowed a TON of air and only took about 2 ounces. That left them ridiculously cranky and wouldn't sleep because they were starving. Not giving up though :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Also, I nursed in public for the first time ever a few weeks ago. eek! It was time for Emily to eat, and after a little persuasion from my family, I stayed at the table in the restaurant. eeek again!! :) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I got the courage to do it again last week. I took Bryson to McDonald's to run off some energy and while we were there the girls needed to eat. I found the far back corner table, blocked it off with the stroller, covered myself up and was good to go. Bryson usually doesn't think twice when I feed them, but for some reason he decided it was the perfect time to announce to the whole playland that "Mommy is feeding my sisters baby milk with her big boobies!" <i>I</i> <i>DIED</i>! aahhh!! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I get the biggest kick out of this picture of Madelynn! When they are hungry, they.are.hungry. They both scream like their arm has been cut off if they have to wait to eat. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">You know how when you're nursing one baby, you can get up and do something if you need to? Get a drink of water, go check on big brother playing Legos, etc. Well, when you're nursing <i>two</i> babies, you can't do a single thing except sit there until they're finished eating and have burped.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">One day last week, Michael was working late and I had stopped at Sonic and got Bryson dinner. I was sitting on the sofa in the living room nursing the girls and he was eating dinner in his little recliner chair. He was eating and doing his thing and then said, "um, uh oh Mommy. I have a problem over here" and calmly holds up his little styrofoam cup of lemonade. He had poked his straw straight through the side of the cup and it was spilling all over the floor. I couldn't do a single stinkin' thing except sit there and try to tell him to run and put it in the sink. I was trying to rush him, but by the time he carefully put his food on the end table and slowly inched his way out of his chair, every drop of lemonade was covering the floor. He finally looked in his cup, looked at me, shrugged, and said, "hmm. guess I was too slow this time. Next time I will be faster. Now you can clean this up." Haha!! UUUgh all the while I was glued to the sofa watching this whole thing happen in slow motion! All I could do was laugh at the whole thing :) </span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Sleep</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Thank goodness, they're getting better about sleeping!! Up until last week, the girls thought their "night time" was from 12-12. That was exhausting staying up until midnight, getting up to feed them both in the middle of the night and then getting up with Bryson at 6:30 or 7, whenever he woke up. If I got 4 hours of sleep, it was a "good" night. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Now (as of this week), they go down for the night around 8:30. Their first long stretch is 6-7 hours long (I still have to wake up to put pacis back a few times) feed them around 2 or 3 and then again around 6 or 7. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">They got used to sleeping in their bouncers when they had congested noses from RSV early on and then again with the reflux, they needed to sleep at an incline. So most nights they are still in their bouncers, but we're making the transition to the pack n play. Once I know they can sleep just as well in there, we'll move them to their own room. I just don't want to get up and down and go to their room 30 times a night right now. It's crazy because B was in his own crib at 2 months and they're still snoozing away in our room at 3 months. Oh well. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Madelynn is definitely the better sleeper. She is a superstar napper and sleeper at night time. Emily is an awful sleeper. She takes cat naps (20-30 mins) and wakes up several times at night. i really hope that changes! Maddy falls alseep within seconds of being swaddled with her paci and it takes Em about 15-20 mins to go to sleep. Usually her naps are in the swing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Fortunately, for now, once they're asleep, they're really good at tuning out each others cries and big brother's loud voice :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">They're both rock stars at tummy time. They get stronger by the day! They both rolled over for the first time a little before 2 months, but do it consistently now. Emily looks like she is trying so so hard to roll from her back to her tummy, but not yet.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Bryson still LOVES "his babies". He takes so much pride in announcing to everyone that he has twin sisters and that he's the big bother. When they start fussing, Bryson will jump up and tell us to sit back down while he gets their paci. He asks to hold them and burp them often. He always has to be fair about it and hold each of them, even if it's only for a few seconds. He makes my heart burst with love for him with how much he adores his sisters. :) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> I am so blessed to be these three wonderful kids' mommy!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The night before Mother's Day, I was putting Bryson down for bed. We had just read our Bible story (David and Goliath fo the 400th time. Obsessed!) and talked about our day and were just about to pray. Before we did, I got a little teary eyed thinking about how big he is now. I told him that I was so happy to be his Mommy and how much I loved him. I told him thank you for making me a mommy because I wasn't a mommy until he came out of my tummy. He looked at me a little silly and then said, "wow! I didn't know you used to be a daddy!!?" Haha!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Michael and the kids completely spoiled me! Michael had breakfast ready (that we didn't get to eat until we were on our way to church!) and had the sweetest cards. I also got a gift cards from the girls to go shopping, a gift card from Bryson to get a massage, and an entire day away to have some "me time" from Michael. I am so excited to cash in my gifts!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I have been determined to get bluebonnet pictures this year. We have tried several times, but one thing or another always came up. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Well, this week, I was going to make it happen. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I got the girls all packed and ready. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Convinced Bryson to change out of "running clothes". (a HUGE accomplishment)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Michael left work early to meet us.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Made it to the field we went to 2 years ago with beautiful bluebonnets...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">ooooh how adorable and tiny! </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">and there was not a single stinkin' bluebonnet!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The entire field was covered in weeds 3 feet tall and red wild flowers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">But after all of that work, by golly, I was going to get pictures. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It was quite chilly for the last week in April and Bryson definitely let us know he would much rather be wearing his running clothes. And he definitely didn't want to smile. Mr. Grumpy Gills was NOT feelin' the pictures that day. <i>Thankyouterriblethrees</i>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The weeds were out of control.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The sun was crazy bright.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The boy (with a giant scrape on his forehead) refused to smile. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><i>But</i>, somehow, we managed to get a few cute pictures. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">While Michael was in Boston, the kids and I stayed here, and with lots of help from his family, survived the 5 days without him. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Steph qualified for Boston last year, way before I got pregnant (but we had planned on having baby #2 by the time of the race). The plan was that I was going to go watch her run and just take the baby with me and Michael would stay home with B. Well, since I had twins, that plan came to a screeching halt. New plan was for Michael to go to support her. But I was going to be left with all 3 kids by myself. eeek!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">As soon as Melony heard that Michael was going to be gone, she took several days off work to come stay with us. She is so so wonderful!! There's no way I would have survived without her!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Rebecca came over on Saturday to hang out and play with the kids. Bryson loved having her here and show off soccer/baseball/basketball/hockey/football/bike skills :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It was beautiful outside, so We walked over to the park :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">She was originally just going to spend Monday and Tuesday with us, but since Michael was stuck in Chicago, she unpacked everything and stayed another day. I'm so thankful for her and that she came to our rescue!! We had a great few days spending time with Grandma. Especially Emily, who decided she needed to play for an hour at 5 AM one night. Grandma took her out to the living room and rocked her until she fiiiinally fell asleep. Have I told you she's amazing!?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The Lord has been proving his all-knowing, incredible power to me and my family over and over recently. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Knowing that "He is in control" has never been more true to me than it is right now. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I prayed so hard for our girls during my whole pregnancy. I knew all along it was a very high risk pregnancy and they would almost certainly be born early and with complications. The Lord held Emily and Madelynn tightly in the womb until the perfect time, letting them develop and grow fully before being welcomed into this world. We were all so thankful and knew it was a true miracle that they were absolutely perfect.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">It hit a little harder when a labor and delivery nurse stopped me in the grocery store while I was shopping with the girls. After I told her the details of their birth, she got tears in her eyes and gently held my arm and told me that "full term mono-di twins born with no complications are so so rare. {They} have only had 2 sets come through their nursery in the 8 years that she worked {at her hospital}." </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">~~~~<br />My dad and sister went on a mission trip to Honduras in late February. My dad had organized the trip for their church and were teaming up with Predisan, a Christian medical group. They set up camps, taught women how to care for their babies and did the dirty work of digging latrines. My dad and Stephanie's group was supposed to head out to the mountains one morning, but instead of going straight there, my dad decided to make a last minute stop to the Predisan office to get some medicine for a man he had seen the previous day. As they were pulling up to the office, my dad had a seizure. Stephanie is a nurse and ran to his aid until the other doctors from the group came to check him out. The Lord directed them to the office to get that medicine for a reason. Had he decided to forgo the medicine and just go straight to the mountains as planned, there is no telling what would have happened. The seizure was a complete freak thing having to do with a very rare side effect between the anti-Malaria medicine and another medication he was taking. It was a very emotional and stressful next few days, but they both made it home healthy and safely {except for a staph infection due to the IV at the hospital}. The Lord had my dad make the stop at the clinic instead of going into the mountains, put a wonderful Predisan doctor with them and took care of all the ambulance and MedJet details to get them home safely and put together so many other tiny details to get them home. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Originally, Stephanie wasn't even supposed to go, but a spot opened up last minute. We are all so thankful she ended up going to be with Dad as he went through this scary situation on his own. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">~~~~</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">This past weekend, Stephanie was running her first ever Boston Marathon. We were all so thrilled an excited for her and her amazing accomplishment. Her boyfriend Trey, Michael, Mom and Dad went to cheer her on during the race. There were so many tiny details that God put together. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Steph is an incredible runner {clearly- she qualified for Boston!!} She had asked Michael to run a couple miles with her in the middle of the race to keep her motivated. Michael jumped in at Heartbreak hill, mile 17, and noticed she was really struggling. Her stomach hurt and she felt like she sprained her ankle at mile 10. One of Michael's spiritual gifts is definitely encouragement and he spent those few miles encouraging her. He decided to go ahead and run the rest of the race with her and left the course around mile 25 to go find her at the finish line. My parents had been at mile 22ish to watch them run by and then were getting on the subway to head over to the finish line. Stephanie finished the race and did amazing!! I was SO proud when I got the text notification that she finished <i>the Boston Marathon!!!</i> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Shortly after, Michael called and said to call my parents and tell them he's safe at the hotel. He had been at the friends and family meeting area when the bombs went off. At that time he didn't know what had happened, but he knew it wasn't right, so he took off for the hotel. I got a hold of my dad and the first thing he said was he, mom, Steph and Trey were safe, but there were 2 bombings at the finish line. I could hear complete chaos on the other end and it was terrifying. Melony had been staying with me and the kids so we turned on the news and watched in complete shock and awe for the next few hours. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">We all spent a lot of time thinking about the little details that happened to keep the family safe.Trey had been standing at the finish line waiting for Steph, leaning up against the building that was bombed right up until she crossed. He tried to get her to come stand over with him after she crossed, but she was so tired he ended up meeting her past the finish line. Thank you, Lord! Michael ended up running much further than expected, encouraging Stephanie to run faster, letting her finish when she did. If she had slowed up more, she could have been crossing when it happened. Thank you, Lord! And even if she had still been running, all the rest of the family would have still been at the finish line. My parents were making their way to the finish line, but their train had been slow and were actually just walking up to the finish line when the bombs went off. They felt the ground shake and saw the smoke and took off running the other way looking for the rest of the family. Thank you, Lord! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">They were all leaving the following day, on different flights. Mom and Dad left first. Shortly after, Michael called to say his flight was delayed due to computer problems. He finally made it out, but had a layover in Chicago, so we were still waiting to get him home. It turned out that all of American Airline's computers were completely shut down all over the country. Stephanie and Trey's flight was delayed several hours. Mom and Dads plane got to land at DFW, but had to sit on the runway for hours at a complete stand still. They started letting planes leave Chicago, but were so backed up, they ended up canceling Michael's flight :(</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />He was set to leave the next morning, but his flight was delayed yet again due to terrible storms. It cleared up a bit and they were off!! He made it home later that afternoon and we were SO happy to have Daddy back at home with us!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">He really has adapted extraordinarily well to the change in our family. He loves "teaching" his sisters how to use the toys and he gets such a kick out of acting like a baby himself. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I didn't get a picture of it, but he even tried to get into his old infant car seat!! It can accommodate up to 35 pounds, and since he is so stinkin' tiny, he can legally still ride in it for another 4pounds or so. How <i>crazy</i> is that!??</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">But no, he is most definitely not a baby anymore. I can't quite believe how big he is seeming to me these days. Especially in his recent school pictures. Holy Moly. I feel like he's going to be starting kindergarten before I know it. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">We spent a lot of time talking to Bryson about the real meaning of Easter this year. I read the Easter story from his toddler Bible almost every day for weeks leading up to Sunday. Bryson has such a sensitive heart; whenever I said Jesus loved us so much, he died on the cross for us, he would get so sad and tell me "NO! he didn't died! He's in heaven. Jesus is not dead!" </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">We were talking about Jesus' "cave" being empty and Michael kept repeating, "He is risen!!" and I answered "He is risen indeed!!" So as soon as we got to my parent's house, he ran in exclaiming, "He is risen!!" to every single person he saw, waiting for their response. :) I loved hearing his pure excitement!</span></div>

Since Em & M have been sick off and on pretty much since they were born, we haven't been able to go see Ellie because we didn't want to take any chances of getting her sick. They fiiiinally got to <strike>play</strike> sleep together this week! Ellie is only 5 weeks older then the girls. This is definitely the beginning of a long wonderful friendship!!</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The girls had their one month check up on Tuesday. With everything that has happened with the girls already, I was really praying for a clean bill of health!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Michael couldn't go with me because he was on his 2nd day of work at his new job and my mom had a doctor appointment so I took the girls by myself. I've taken them several places myself already, but this was the first big one :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">For the first time at any well visit, I had a huge list of (paranoid mom) questions. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Both girls were laying on their backs on the table while Dr. Burton was checking them out. They were really alert and wiggly. He was in the middle of answering one of my many questions and Emily darn near almost rolled from her back to her belly!! If only the carseat wasn't in the way, she probably would have. We were both pretty shocked and impressed :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">They both have rolled from belly to back multiple times during tummy time, but this was definitely a first for the other way. Granted, it was probably a complete fluke, but it was still fun. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">We actually had to make another stop at the doctor last Thursday because the girls had Thrush. If it's not one thing, it's another! Ha! They were put on oral medicine and cream for the awful diaper rash it caused. Thankfully, it had cleared by this check up. That makes 5 visits in 5 weeks, folks. What a track record! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">They both checked out great (finally!!) and he was impressed with their muscle tone and growth. Hooray! Sure hope it continues like this!</span></div>
