Update 5/19/15

Our apologies for the lack of updates over the past 3 months.  We've been busy with numerous things the most important of which has been adjusting to life with twins at home.  It has been going great so far.  Amelia and Nora are settled, doing well and yes, sleeping through the night!  About a month ago they began sleeping 6+ hours at night and the past 2-3 weeks they have been sleeping 8 or more hours at night!  It has been unbelievable.  We often compare this to Issac, who only slept through the night a handful of times until age 3. :-)  We give them their last bottle somewhere between 7:30-9pm and they basically tell us they are "done" for the day, so we put them to bed and they wake up somewhere between 5:30-7:00am, eat and usually go back to bed for a few more hours! Now if we could just get the older two children to sleep in, we'd be set! ;)

With the spring weather we have been fortunate to be able to go out on walks at night, along with taking the girls different places.  Last weekend, Ellie had a dance competition in the cities, so we tried our first night in a hotel with them.  It went really well and they were such good babies throughout the weekend.

They were baptized on May 3rd at River of Hope church in a nice ceremony conducted by our Pastor Laura Aase.  Their sponsors are Sara's cousins, Angie Willers and Alexis Walstad and my best bud Darin and his wife Megyn (who are expecting and due in July).

This week, Amelia has started to roll from her tummy to back. Nora is definitely are more "laid back" baby and Amelia appears to be a little more "high maintenance" or "curious" baby.
We also are enjoying lots of smiles from both girls and lots of "talking."
Ellie and Isaac are loving their sisters and being very helpful. Ellie is like a second mother, she is even changing diapers for us now (with the exception of some diapers ;)). We know the girls will adore her as they get older. Isaac loves his "little lambs" and has to sometimes be asked to stop kissing them and leave them alone.
Life with twins has its trying times but all in all, Amelia & Nora are VERY good babies, we are adjusting well and it really is going better than we expected.
