TWO Months of Love

Last night, the Four Tanks took dinner to the Three Jungs. We had a great time posing Luke and the Ladies for some pictures. What an incredible gift it is to raise babies together!

We are celebrating the two month mark with Luke and Lane. At their most recent doctor's appointment, Luke weighed in at 12lbs 5oz and Lane followed close behind at 10lbs 10oz. Luke's belly and thighs have become very impressive, and Lane continues to be all cheeks and lips. They are both a joy! In fact, last night everyone slept 8 hours!

Thank you to all who have helped us survive these first months with twins! We are eternally grateful for all the meals, visits, laundry, diaper changing, rocking, holding, soothing, errands, phone calls, emails, cards, gifts, coke zero, and general love. It takes a village! Thank you for buoying us with your support and prayers and practical generosity.

We are ALL about Self-Soothing!

So we officially passed the 6-Week mark.  We are now starting to help Luke and Lane learn about Self-Soothing.  As the photo attests Luke is digging on his pacifier.  Lane can only handle about 1/3 of a pacifier before she starts to gag, keep it going and she will throw up...bummer.  She does like some time in the swing and they both love to be held.  We are also allowing them some tummy time and napping on their stomachs.  We are not completely comfortable yet with having them sleep unobserved on their stomach's but that will happen soon enough. Please look at the photos we added to the Picasa website. We captured several important visitors.
