Expanding Family

For those of you unaware, I've been a human incubator for the past ~9 months to the newest set of twins in my family. Wednesday, January 11, we doubled the number of children 5 and under in our household. So far we are all adjusting to our new roles. We are working on the sleeping bit and doing okay. I think it is more us adjusting to lack of sleep than anything.

The birth went amazingly well, much to the entire hospital staff's dismay/disbelief. Both came vaginally, with the second one being breech. They tried to turn him, but he wouldn't budge.

Happy New Year

The middle of last week Chris and the kids went to OK for a wedding.  It was a good wedding and everyone enjoyed seeing them. I was sad to miss it, but had fun finishing the quilt tops. Hopefully I'll get a chance to finish the quilts in the next week or so.

A has decided that she likes school enough that she is done with being on break. Hopefully she'll do well over summer, but no bets on that. We have several carboys that I get from work so hopefully we can get some container gardening going for the kids and will help her do something.

Right after Christmas we got a display table from Hobby Lobby as a train table for GMan. He got some tracks and trains for Christmas and we wanted to have a place for him to lay tracks and not always pick them up. They got the table set up in the basement today and the kids were super excited. Excited enough to want me to see it before I even took my coat off after work today.

Here's hoping we get some cold weather soon and all is going well with you.
