Milking it for all it's worth

6/5/12

The lack of a schedule is better established now.  The kids don't seem to understand their parents need for order and a system.  However, mom and dad are adjusting well.  Determining a schedule for them would be much easier if they were bottle fed all the time, but they are getting much better with their eating.  Sometimes they will go three and half or four hours between feeds and other times they are screaming for more after an hour and half.  We are told this is normal for breastfed babies.

Jacqueline is doing amazingly well just making sure she can keep moving.  She sleeps when she can, eats when she can, and makes sure the two parasites (said with the beaming joy and excitement of a proud husband and father) get all the nourishments they are willing to take.  Soon enough they will be sleeping longer, mommy and daddy will not be so exhausted, and more happiness will accompany the joy of parenthood.

The other amazing thing I noticed, just today, is that Evan has developed some cheeks.  Small as they may be, they have arrived.  He is getting bigger and you now don't need a scale to notice.  Emily is noticeably longer too.  She is wearing a newborn size sleeper right now.  She is swimming in it, but the length is closer to a fit than the premie size she has been wearing.

Good night.
