A few words to describe my life lately.

Very tired. Lots of bottle washing. Laundry galore. Feeding charts. Grunty noises. Burps. Hand sanitizer. Dr. appointments. Adorable faces. Poop analyzing. A few tears (mommy and babies). Very tired. Lots of smiles. Pumping. Nursing. Swings. Baths. cuddles. Cat naps. Millions of kisses. Did I say very tired?

It's been crazy at times, but also wonderfully wonderful. Enjoy the after-bath hairstyles.

P.S. If you look at the close-ups of the boys, you'll notice a chin zit that Bennett is sporting. It's been there for weeks. It used to bug me, but now I am very glad it's there because it's sometimes the only way to tell them apart (and Alex's painted toenail-sorry buddy) now that they are so close in weight and Alex's chub doesn't immediately give him away.

I was just looking at those pictures thinking they could be the same baby, just dressed in different clothes! How funny that you painted Alex's toenail!

Hang in there! The sleepless nights do not last forever! (It's important to remember that.)

I can't imagine how tired you are!
Cute pictures.

Man, if Bennett is the only one with the slightest bit of baby acne then you are good to go. My poor kids go through it terribly. usually as soon as they start to smile. So sad.

So so cute! good luck with the tiredness - I can't even imagine! (I guess take how I felt when Lou was newborn x3).

Precious little faces. It is fun to see the changes!

they do look exactly alike... wow. they're super cute. and they're getting big! i'm glad all is going well. i don't know how you do it!!!

amen to that! One baby is hard enough, I don't know how you handle three. And two that look the same- I forgot about that. Keep those toenails painted :) Good luck- you can do it- and being a mommy like that is only for a short season. It gets way easier very soon - well maybe a little bit- you have three;)

Cora had a little baby zit that lasted almost a year, so maybe Bennett has provided you with a more reliable source than a painted toenail..

they are still cute as ever! love them! Yes just remember the short amount of sleep through the night wont last forever! hopefully you will be lucky like me and have them sleeping 8 hours through the night in the next couple of months! hang in there sounds like you are doing great and Im sure you are!

Unknown said...

Pretty busy, to be sure, but how cute are they! And you, too!

Have you gotten totally creative with the double pumping, double bottle feeding all at the same time? MAN did I have some crazy set ups. But whatever works...good luck!

They are absolutely beautiful! Hang in there with the whole tired thing. It will only get better. You are awesome and I love reading all the updates of your beautiful family.

Those babies are getting cuter and cuter! I know it is exhausting during the beginning when they aren't sleeping well-I wish we could be there to help! But I agree that even when you crust out of bed, grumbling the whole way, their sweet little faces make it all worth it!
