Oh my goodness it doesn't seem possible that it's been two weeks since Jenga expanded our family. And what changes have taken place just even in the last week. Everyone has crossed the One Pound mark and we even have a couple of Two-Pounders - yes, I'm talking about you, Amelia and Orville. They're starting to get up on their legs and actually walking instead of scooting around. They don't walk very far before they fall down but they are walking. They also got their first nail trim this evening (at Jenga's request). Yaeger seems to be our Poster Child for illustrating big moments so once again he steps in to "model" how big boys get their nails done.
And the noises don't sound so much like seagulls anymore. There have been actual barks and howls coming from the pen now.
And the biggest milestone? Eyes are opening and there is someone looking back at us now. Lindy officially has two eyes open and Piper (our Popeye impersonator) has one open. When you look at the others, their eyes are slit where you can see light glinting off their eyes. It is simply AMAZING to see how quickly they are developing. Jenga, too, is more comfortable with leaving them now. About the only time she spends with them now is to feed and clean them. In fact, she's lying right beside me as I make this blog entry. She has been an amazing Mama. Here are a couple of pix we took this evening of some of the Milestone Moments. I'll try and get everyone's Week 2 photos posted tomorrow.
