Let's Fast Forward 6 Months!

I am welcoming March with much happiness. March brings spring and with spring brings weather that I can stroll the babies outside and get out of this boring house! The girls are growing like weeds... I have missed out on blogging about so many fun events, but to sum it up, we have experienced... rolling, sitting, reaching, teething, falling, bruising, and plenty of crying! Their sleep schedule was perfect around 4-5 months then one day they decided they were too good for their cribs. We have tried sleep training, and its just not doing the trick. I think the next step is to move one crib into our guest bedroom and letting them both cry it out at night. :( Sounds cruel, I know... but that did work for Anna temporarily until we tried it with Abby and that just went horribly wrong with Anna in there. Typically we end up with one of the girls in our bed by morning and that is definetly a habit we want to break!

Also with the arrival of March comes big lifestyle changes. Now that I am responsible for two darling little lives, I finally see that I need to change alot about me to insure I am around for a long, long time to bug them with my motherly advice. :) I gained a lovely 40 pounds with the pregnancy, lost about 35 of it, and now put on another 30. YIKES. Needless to say, our food choices and daily activites will be changing. We purchased a treadmill (yay) to start out on and like I said, once the weather allows, we can take many walks/jogs with the girls soon enough!

Lastly, we will be building our dream home with construction beginning in September 2010. 2010 may shape out to be a great year afterall. Now if I could only get these spoiled twins to sleep at night!
