y'all have your work cut out for you, I can see <g> ...
One thing I know - - there is a reason God gives babies to young people ... and "energy" has got to be the highest reason on the list! LOL

Oh yes, energy is what I am running out of at the moment. Mom and Dad are sleeping. Little D just went back down. Changed his butt, gave him a nice warm bottle and hopefully he'll sleep about 3 hours. Olivia is in her carseat all tucked in and has been sleeping for about an hour. I hope she sleeps for another 2, then Mom and Dad can get up and take them. I now have Lauren's cold that she had when I got here. I'm trying not to breathe on babies so they don't get sick. I don't think they will. My hands are chapped from washing them so much and I have a special shirt I wear when I hold them.

Ok, here's a pic of grandma and her babies.

When my son was 6 weeks old, the doctor told me to STOP nursing and put him on nonfat milk. He started out big to begin with, 9 lb 1 oz. Guess he was hungry long before he emerged into this world. He's still hungry, LOL. He can BBQ meat better than anyone I know. And, when he stops by here, the first thing he heads for is the fridge.

jacquemoe........your son and mine must be separated twins born 8 years apart!
Mine is 47 and also was a big baby, 8.6, and also at the six week check-up, was put on skim milk.
Whether he is hungry or not, he usually checks whatever might be in the frig on any visit.
He was able to enjoy eating early also...every three months he broke through three teeth. That's right, at a year, he had a dozen...
I guess they're all the same...love mom's cooking !!!!!!

Oh Terri!! They are so beautiful!! Please take care of that cold, and those chapped hands. Don't want anything stopping you from getting back to sewing when you get back to the "pebble". Give those babies a big ((((((hug))))) from all of us on the QB.

ZICAM for your cold - - trust me! <g>
The babies are THRIVING! Look how alert and calm they are looking ... intelligent brains looking for INPUT! LOL
I am still interested about if they sleep together, do they sleep better?

Terri, cute, cute!!! Your arms must be pretty strong to hold them out like that because those babies look like they are growing pretty darn fast! Thats a great pic of the three of you....give them a hug from me!

Wow Terri, they've changed so much already!!!!!!!! What beautiful babies, and I was thinking the same as Gai... Olivia definitely has you in her...
