Babies Are Growing FAST!

The babies had a doctor visit last Friday and their new weights are: Izaiah 8 pounds 4 ounces and Izabella 6 pounds 10 ounces. Izaiah gained 1 pound 10 ounces in 2 weeks and Izabella gained a pound and a half. They are growing so fast and eating so much more than they did when they came home that it's hard to keep up! They are doing fantastic though. Annalise is such a big help to us...she loves her brother and sister and the only thing she won't do is change a diaper. I ask her all the time if she wants to help and she says everytime, "Ewww gross! I don't want nasty poopi on my hands!" So she gives me an emphatic NO everytime. And also Anna can swim without her water wings now! She can swim underwater across the pool (width) in one breath. And she has no fear of jumping in and doing canonballs. It shocked me when I first saw this. She is such a big girl and we love her to death! So here are some more pictures and we will update yall soon!

Anna loves purses!!

Family update

The twins had their first bath, Annalise has been wanting to hold the babies everyday, and since she isn't sick anymore, she can finally hold them all the time. Erica is healing up great from her C-section, and I'm trudging through school and still finding time to help around the house and change some diapers. Erica's Mom is here for another week and she is an unbelievable help to us. The next check up for the babies is on Wednesday and we will find out how much they weigh. Izaiah has to be well over 7 pounds because he eats like a champion, and Izabella is probably about a week behind Izaiah in terms of growth but is doing great. We are loving our two new additions to the family and are very much enjoying them around the house. Feel free to post comments or email Erica and I at jpeltarter@yahoo.com for more information.
