We've taken the plunge-we have toddler beds! It has been a controversial issue, to say the least. Some family/friends have said we should have had them ages ago, others have said we are crazy for taking them out of the cribs. Anyway, we did this in our time. Well, the twins' time because I would have kept the cribs for sure. There room looks so bare, with just two toddler beds and a handful of toys. Sniff, sniff. I went to check them tonight after they were asleep and they look so grown up in their big boy/girl beds. Where did my babies go? I honestly wanted to cry, just because I'm amazed at how quickly two years have changed them. It's definitely a reminder to hold on to the moments, they are flying by so fast. The toddler beds came to be because both twins tore down their crib tents and were climbing in and out of their cribs, which wasn't safe. They are just growing up. Almost overnight.
Henry is doing great, he goes for a weigh-in tomorrow (Monday). He sleeps great (nighttime he goes from 12 or 12:30 to about 6 am) and is such a joy. I can't imagine not having him or what we did before he came, it seems like he's always been a part of our family. God definitely knew what he was doing better than us, when he sent us such a precious little surprise (really, a big surprise!). Carson is a very attentive big brother to Henry, helping feed, burp, and change him and giving him a million kisses a day. Emmy is possessive over him, but not as infatuated with the baby. We took him to dance Thursday night and all her friends were very excited to see him.
We all 5 went to church today too, for the first time. It was really nice to be back in church. We have such a great church family. It was interesting getting everyone ready and out the door but we made it!
Well, I'm off to feed Henry one last time and hop in bed. Actually I'm excited to watch the season premiere of Army Wives! Love that show! That's where we heard Emilynn's name and fell in love with it!
I will post more soon!!!
