Tired...

I feel tired today, not that I have any reason to be. The babies have been sleeping well, they are both averaging 7-10 hrs in a row. Plus when they wake, usually between 6 and 7am they will go right back down for 3-4 hrs. I have nothing to complain about... just feel tired! I want my hair cut and a pedicure!! HA those are the last things that are going to happen with fathers day this weekend, James and Elijah are going camping, leaving me home with 4 kids ALONE!!! AHHHH
It will be good, though. I am excited for James to be able to relax, I have been going to Jazzercises for a couple weeks now, that is my out!!

Thats all... not very exciting, just tired!

Beautiful Babies

Picture taken May 29th Grandma Jolene's class made these blankets for the babies. I finally tried to do a mini-photo shoot and as you can see it did not go well!! I will be trying again!! :)
Daddy was holding both babies and was able to put them to sleep!




June 11, already 3 months old!



Olivia taking out her brother!!



Erik Update

Erik James is already 3 months old! It is so hard to believe time is passing so quickly. He is a very happy baby who loves to sleep!! A mothers dream ;)

Every three weeks we are having appts in Vancouver at an orthodontist for the mouth piece he wears. You can see it in his mouth here, the purpose of the plate is to bring the cleft closer together so when they do his palate surgery at 9 months the 'hole' won't be as big. In the picture you can also see the nose stint that is attatched to the plate. This is to stretch the nostril up, making it look more uniform with the other nostril. We are also taping his lip, the tape pulls the skin together, stretching it so there is more to work with. I am finding it very hard to believe that next month he will be having his lip surgery already! He will look so different, it is kind of bitter sweet, I will miss his wide smile, but look forward to seeing his smile together! :)
