Yesterday we witnessed our first round of “pay back” between the girls… here is what happened….

Both girls were suppose to be napping in their cribs when we heard Ava start crying (screaming, really). When we went into the room we found Emilie turned perpendicular (put to sleep parallel) to her sister kicking her in her face. Now, I find this horribly ironic as the roles were reversed in utero when Ava was kicking Emilie in the face during our last ultrasound at 35 weeks… pay back is a bitch, I say.

The girls will be 7 weeks old tomorrow and I am amazed at how fast they are growing. Today Ava weighed 8lb 11oz and Emilie was 7lb 2oz. Their size differences are really pronounced now and holding each of them is such a difference experience. After holding Ava for an extended period of time and then picking up Emilie, I swear I almost throw her over my shoulder b-c she is so light.

Emilie is still able to wear her little preemie onesies although they are really stretched to their max. She is in between sizes but will probably graduate into newborn sizes soon.

We received our first shipment of online purchased diapers. We currently are looking at 3 boxes of 90+ diapers and lament that this is only a 2.5-3 week supply (a singleton would last for six weeks with that quantity). They are little pooping machines.
