Update

The babies are doing wonderful! It amazes me how much they have changed in the 3 months that they have been home. Their little personalities are so funny and beyond adorable. We are so excited to watch them grow and develop but part of me already misses the time when they won't be babies anymore. Time is flying by.
I must say, I don't think it will never be "easy" with two but it has gotten "easier" as the months have passed. A few weeks ago Randy was in the Philippines for 10 days and my family stayed with me the whole time. It was great having the help and also having them see what a typical 24 hours looks like for me.
The babies just had their 4 month check up on Feb. 2 and it went well! Dr. says they are doing great! Kaden now weighs a hefty 11 pounds 12 ounces and Kaleiah who feels light as a feather actually weighs 10 pounds 8 ounces! They also are the same exact length, 24 and 1/4 inches! They had to get two shots each and it breaks my heart every time. What mother wouldn't cringe seeing her baby in pain? I absolutely hate it! They both came down with fevers last night due to the shots and were very fussy bc of the pain so we had to give them infant tylenol for the first time! They didn;t seem to mind the taste. They also have to get another RSV shot on Thursday. It's the worst flu season in a while, their Dr. has 4 patients in the hospital w/ RSV and we personally know someone who's baby was just hospitalized with it. So we are still pretty protective about taking them out and keeping them covered if we do. So far, so good! We are so blessed that they are so healthy.


One of the most exciting things for me right now is after 3 looong months of struggling to breast feed, I am now doing it exclusively. No more pumping, no more bottles. It's a wonderful thing and a time where I get to marvel at them and bond with them. It feels really good to have not given up and persevered. It was a very bumpy road but like with everything else, we made it.
Here are some recent pictures of the sweet peas! Enjoy!
