Big Changes




The girls are growing so much. Hannah weighs 15 lbs. now and Alyssa is close behind weighing in at 13 lbs. They are awake much more during the day and they like to play with rattles and look at books. They are sleeping through the night now! They have been sleeping between 6-8 hours every night since they were 14 weeks. (Now they are 19 weeks) So we have been feeling much better and are finally getting some much needed rest. We discovered sleep sacks and they are really worth buying. They are really just a blanket that the babies sleep in. You put them in it and zip it up. That way they stay warm through the night, they don’t kick the covers off and wake up from being cold, and the worry about them choking on the blanket is gone. Since the first night we put them in these sacks, they have been sleeping great. We dress them and feed them a bottle and they drift off to sleep. We put them in their cribs and they sleep away until morning. It is heavenly. When they do wake up around 6 or 7, they eat another bottle and then go back to sleep for a little bit longer. That is when I can get things like blogging done. (Hannah in sack, Alyssa sleeping on Daddy's lap)
