5 Months ago today

That was us five months ago today! Can you believe it? I can't believe how much has changed since then. Look at that new family. Well, I don't look quite so haggard as I did immediately after their birth, but Michael and I both look pretty tired these days. And look at those two tiny little bundles. They're more than twice that size now, and well on their way to being three times that size. It's hard to believe that these are the same babies today! How lucky are we?! Well, technically we're part of the 3.4% of the population who got lucky enough to get two or more (according to the March of Dimes). But we still feel like we hit the lottery!

We woke the babies up this morning singing the "Happy 5 Month Birthday to you..." song. Sterling really got a kick out of the "you look like a monkey, and belong in a zoo" line. Why doesn't that surprise us? The boy is going to go to his first day of kindergarten and introduce himself as "the monkey." It's been thundering and lightening all day, so we had to stay inside for their 5 month special day. Mommy took pictures of them dressed cutely, but then realized she forgot to put the CF card in the camera. So she tried it again, but this time all she got was pictures of their tonsils. Better luck at 6 months, right?

Oh, just so you folks know, that's Ella on the left, and Sterling on the right.
