WHEW....

I finally have some time to update the blog. Over the past few weeks, it's been hard to find time. We've been busy! Ellie and Lexi turned 4 Months (WOW!), we took Reese to ride her first amusement rides, celebrated Father's Day, visited Paul's family in Minnesota for a family wedding and with lots in between....

First, I'll begin with Ellie and Lexi turning FOUR months. I know, I say this all the time, but seriously TIME FLIES! If you met them today you would never know that they were preemies. They are growing like weeds and have hit all of the four month milestones. Each of them will just talk and talk to you, laugh and LOVE to smile. Nothing beats my morning smiles when I go in to get them out of their cribs. Oh, the biggest thing of all, they are sleeping through the night and have been for THREE weeks. This is the most exciting b/c Reese did not do this until 9 months. Both take their 4 bottles a day and then are down for the night between 7p and 8p. Lexi rolled over for the first time today and Ellie is right behind her. Dr. Benzick was impressed with their growth. Here are their stats:

Ellie - Lexi -
Weight: 13 lbs and 13oz (94 percentile) 12 lbs and 10 oz (78 percentile)
Height: 24 in (89 percentile) 24 in (89 percentile)

Now for picture overload :)
