8 weeks: Dog Tired

Hi all.

I hope my thoughts here are coherent. I find my mind is a little slower these days.

Tyler and Kristina are doing great. Tyler is now 22" at 10lbs 11oz and Kristina is 21 3/4 inches at 10lbs 4 oz. They are in the 50th percentile for normal 8 week old babies; which is way ahead of 5 week premature babies. It so comforting to hear from the Dr. that all is going so well.

They have been sleeping 4 hours between feedings during the night; or at least they were. They have started to become a bit more alert and consequently not sleeping as much. Just as one gets comfortable, the next one throws out a scream. Sometimes they cry out at the same time. Then you know it is time for the tandem feeding.

Amy and I got to get out last weekend to see Annie. Not exactly the play I was dying to see, but it was nice to get out. It was the longest that both of us have been away from the kids. Auntie Kim may be up for spring break. The perfect timing for our next play. We had to miss the play just before Annie since we were in the hospital.

For those waiting for a phone call... please just give us a call. We find it gets too late too fast to remember to make a call. Love ya all.

Catch you all later... time for BED!
