We had our first "outing" today to the pediatrician for the babies to weigh in. Abigail is up to 5 lbs. 1 oz. and George is 7 lb. 6 oz. They are eating well and growing quickly!! George's bilirubin test for jaundice came back negative--praise for that! He is still a bit yellow but it will reduce with exposure to sunshine.
We are sleeping better, all four of us. Judie and Jerry are here helping out with the adjustment home. Between plumbing projects, lawn mowing, grocery shopping, and building a ramp for our shed, let alone taking care of the babies, we are trying to find the normalcy of life with multiples.
The babies are beautiful and full of personality already. George is laid back most of the time and Abigail is positively fiesty and full of spunk. Both love to cuddle! They are alert after feedings and make so many different facial expressions. Abigail is already trying to hold her head up on her own. I am certain they are advanced!!

Ahhh we can't wait to meet them! We'll be making a trip in October and hope to see the kiddos then. Glad to hear they are doing well.
Be forewarned, after October 6th, they might not be Texas fans anymore! It's gonna hurt...

So glad to see the pictures and read your birth story! Carrie, I'm so happy you were able to deliver naturally! Matt, I'm glad you were there to force the issue with the hospital staff and be part of the birth.
Love,
Sara & Billy & Simon
