It is hard to believe that this week the babies were a month old! During this week we had an ice storm. There are a few pics in the slide show that do not do it justice. I never left the house of course so I cant show the enormity of it. We lost power for half a day and then it went on and off for the next few days. I prayed like crazy that it would stay on, we were worried about the babies getting too cold. Luckily with out gas fireplace, even when the electricity was off, we all stayed warm. My family and some of our friends were without power for days, it was awful! The babies are amazing, they are growing so fast. At this point we were still bathing in the sink and it is not something they like at this point. They do not sleep at the same time. Calla will sleep half the night and then Carter the other half. No sleep for mommy! Small smiles started to appear on occasion but not purposeful yet. The babies both sleep in Calla's crib so if Carter grows up to love the color pink, it will be our fault. :-) The dogs, Tusk and Blu, are adjusting well. They really want to lick the babies all over so it is a challenge not to let them. When one of them cries the dogs are the first ones there and look at us as if to say "hurry up already and make it all better". It is really cute. Tusk will cry along sometimes, its hard not to laugh. The babies do love their pacifiers which is great now, I know it will be a challenge later. Aunt Shelley, Uncle Aaron, Cousin Cade and Austin visited this week to. It was brief for Austin and Aaron due to the ice storm but Shelley and Cade stayed for a while. It was fun.
