We can't believe we're coming up on the one month mark already!
The babies are doing great, eating well and gaining weight. We're attempting to get them to sleep in their crib at night. So far they seem to prefer sleeping with mommy and daddy. It's frustrating when you know they're sooo tired, but they just will not go to sleep in the crib!
Mason seems especially resistant to the whole crib idea. As you can see, he's all up in arms about it!
Although, it's really cute when we finally pick them up and bring them into our room, they instantly quiet down and are sacked out in seconds. They just love that bodily contact.
As for the two of us, we keep trucking along here. Last week was tough because I (Chris) had to be gone a couple of nights. I did a ride along with Metro West Ambulance on the graveyard shift Wednesday night. And Thursday night I had to do a shift at Hooper Detox Center. The week was all thrown off, but thank God for grandmas! My mom, Amanda's mom, and Amanda's step mom and sister all pitched in and helped Amanda with the babies. Thank you guys!
Well, that's about it for now from us. We hope all is well with everyone!
bye.

Hi Amanda and Chris (M&M too)
The babies are so beautiful! You guys are doing a fantastic job of letting us know the progress. I hope you are having a little time to yourselves....even if it is when you are sleeping! So great to hear that Chris is doing some practicals, that has to be really different too!
Amanda, my dear, you are in my thoughts daily!
Hugs

Wow oh wow, what an accomplishment for all of you these past weeks. We are stunned at the beautiful way in which the photographs have turned out. It is impossible to pick just one.
We left you an e-mail today already, but we wanted to comment here on your blog and thank you so much for your efforts of bringing your children's life into our home. It is so wonderful that you can share these moments. We are glad to see that Mason and Madison are enjoying their new bedroom, loved the tour of your condo the other day, Amanda. I wanted to curl up like your cat and take a nap too.
You all are troopers and we also commend the work that Melissa, Masha, Persilla and Nancy are contributing. It's got to be a circus at times, but the memories will never die. Glad to hear your sleeping at least 4 hours straight lately. What an incredable schedule. I would be going nuts! I wish I could retire and be there for you also.
Love and hugs, Kathy and Fred
I wish I could tell you they will start sleeoing in their own beds soon but Jayce is almost 3 and here he comes in the middle of the night to crawl into bed with mommy and daddy...Suggestion get a California king sized bed that way you acctually get some sleep :) Love Breianne
