Folding Laundry

So it’s funny how something I absolutely hate doing could be so insightful. The mindless task of folding three baskets of laundry this morning gave me time to reflect on how absolutely perfect my life is. I’m married to my best friend and the love of my life. We have a comfortable home in a new city that we love. We’ve been doubly blessed with our beautiful twin daughters. Our families are healthy and happy and we’re surrounded with new and old friends that are always there for us no matter how many miles might separate us. I couldn’t ask for anything more. (Who would of thought I could get all of that while folding towels?)

Well the hubby is really enjoying his father’s day gift and is getting into his new photography hobby. I love that he is so into it, because I am so not a picture taker. If it were left to me, we’d probably only end up with a handful of out-of-focus pictures of the girls over the course of their lives. I’ve attached a few bath time pictures that he took during this past weekend.







So what’s new with us this week……..

The girls had a doctor apt yesterday and are weighing in at 7lbs 6 ozs and 7lbs 4 ozs. They are averaging a gain of 1.6oz per day (far above the recommended gain of 0.75oz per day)!!!

This morning “N” woke up just as daddy was leaving for work, and as he kissed her goodbye she flashed a quick smile at him. I know she probably doesn’t realize she’s smiling – but I like to think that she does. (I attached a picture below of a previous smile- sorry about the rotation)



Grandpa “A” will be here today to meet his new granddaughters - they can't wait to meet him!

Well that's all for this post - "K" is yelling at me because she's hungry. (And when "K" yells - I jump because she's got the most ear piercing cry I have ever heard!)
