I haven't posted pics in a while here so thought I'd put them up. My twins are almost 5 months and are rolling, drooling, talking up a storm and trying to put knees under to crawl but do creep Isabella weighed 12lbs 8oz and Garrett weighed 15lbs 9oz at 4 month appt.
HopesAndDreams, Suey, Danelle76, Amy1234, hope you're all doing well and look forward to your pics when you get time to post. Karen

hey ladies, just seen this but then again i dont have a whole lot of play time anymore.
Alot has happened since the birth of MJ. I started school, doing wonderful but it takes alot of extra time that i did not have to begin with, My dh and i are taking some time apart, the stress of little ones and diffrence in beliefs of raising kids has done a number on us, we are working on things from a distance, no I'm Sorry's just yet. Little MJ is not little he is so fat. took him in for his shots (4) months and he is almost 18 pounds..... wow hun Since my dh left my tr baby #1 is potty training now, she is doing wonderful, she decided that night that she was a big girl and started sleeping in her bed in her room. so we are doing great, for the most part.
I am so glad to hear from everyone. i have not been on here in forever so i am glad to see the updates.
I did see where Amy1234 was saying good bye to everyone several weeks ago, she said she had been blessed and was finished so Amy if you are checking in we miss you girl. Hope everything is going great for your family!

Awe nice to hear updates on some summer girls!
Suey …poor little Jordon! It really is so hard to not be able to make everything OK for them, seeing our little ones in pain is so hard! Glad they were able to at least give him some instant relief and hopefully you will have a solution soon that works for him! Keep us updated!
Dawn – I can relate we have had the flu running through our house too! Ali had a stuffy nose for a week and had a low fever of 99 for 2 days last week . I took her in and they said everything looked fine and to just monitor her. She was fine after that and back to her happy self. I am glad she was able to fight off whatever was coming on! My poor older son though was down for 4 days with fever.
Time sure is flying!! Ali is 3 months 2 weeks and growing like a WEED! At Urgent care last week she weighed in at 14lbs!! Breast Milk is surely doing her good! Working full time and pumping has posed to be my biggest challenge but we are sticking with it as long as we can!
I sit and think man while Ali was born almost 2 years exactly after TR surgery it sure felt like it took forever to get her and now that she is here she is just growing so fast. She lights up our world and truly has completed our family. Seeing DH interact with his daughter (first biological child) is just priceless. I am very much enjoying being a new mommy again. While we did not have an easy road, I wouldn’t change anything for where it led me to!
Great to hear updates…all these little ones are truly little miracle babies!

Suey~ I'm so sorry to hear all that you and little Jordan have been going through. It is so hard to know they are in pain and to not be able to help them feel better right away. Zachary is still on Breast Milk. He had a cold at 3 weeks and has acid reflux. That has all gotten better for him, Thank Goodness. I've had my 12yo son home from school since last Thursday because Dr's think he has H1N1. Last night my throat started to hurt and nose running, well I woke up to body aches, head ache, sore throat and stuffy nose I am doing everything in my power to try and keep Zach from getting this.. But he sounded stuffy when he got up this am. I should have enough BM stored that if I'm feeling worse in the morning, I'm going to see if my PCP will give me Tamiflu. My DS was already too far along with the flu to get it. This is all just scarry to have a newborn and have to worry about all of this too. One nice thing is that Zach is sleeping through the night, so we can get some rest now. Zach weighed 12lbs 7.9oz and 23"long on Monday's appointment. I can't believe he will be 2 1/2 months on Saturday.. Time is flying! I hope everyone is doing well.. I will put up new pics on Monday. That way I can put pics of his Halloween costume on here.. lol Take care everyone! Dawn H.

Hello all sorry I havent had much time to update but it has been really hectic. I was BFing Jordon but got really sick when he was about 4 weeks old so I stopped and went to formula well come to find out he has a milk allergy so they switched him t Now we have him on similac alimentum and he is not having normal bowel movements he has been all backed up we did take him in for a xray and it did show his intestines were all filled so they helped him get relief. But now we are just trying to hold up and figure out what we need to do to keep him happy and pain free. I will upload updated pics soon I hope everyone is doing great and those babies are growing and growing
Oh Jordon is up to 13lbs 6oz as of Monday He is wearing 3-6 months for his clothes for length

He is adorable Dawn! I have that same sleep position thing..lol
Ali sure gained her weight quick. She came home at 6lbs 5 ounces and at her 2 month check up was 12lbs 11 ounces....she LOVES to eat..I am grateful she is thriving and healthy and growing so well. Looks like Zachary is thriving too. Pumping and then feeding can be a lot of work, but anything is worth it to give these little ones what they need!
It is such a miracle to have these little ones, I really look at her every single day and feel so blessed to have her.
We will all have to try and update a bit more so we can see these little miracles grow!

Hi Danelle, Ali is so cute! She sure is growing. That is great that you are still able to BF. And it is great that you have a wonderful sitter too! I'm sure that makes it a bit easier on you knowing she is in good hands.. This is my first BF baby too and I have to pump and mix it with cereal because he has reflux and was choking on the BM because it was so thin. A little more time consuming but worth it. Zachary will be 7 weeks tomorrow and was 10 lb 11oz his last dr appointment at 5 weeks.. I think he is going to be a little chunky monkey like my other two guys were.. lol He goes back in 2 weeks so I'm sure he has gained much more. Here are a few of the recent pics of him...He has lots of chub..lol There are lots more in my photo album on here..

Been awhile since everyone updated. How is everyone doing? Ali is 11 weeks (will be 12 Monday). She is growing like a weed! She is already up to 12lbs 11 ounces. Her little chubby cheecks and rolls on her leg are just too dang cute! I am on my second week back to work and it has been hard to be away from her, but the sitter we have is fantastic with her. I am still bf'ing and pumping at work. I am so proud of myself to have made it this long with bf'ing as I never tried it with my other children.
Would love to hear updates from everyone! And some updated pics. I will upload some new ones of Ali.
