A Bunch of Firsts!
Isn't she the cutest thing ever! Karlee has been smiling for a week now and I finally caught it on camera! She is an angel baby. You hardly know she is even there! Nicholas, on the other hand, is still kind of a handful. He never seems to be content anywhere, except on his tummy, which always makes me nervous because of SIDS. I check on him every 5 seconds to make sure he is still breathing. He is so funny! If he isn't sleeping, he wants to be eating, and if he's not eating, he's trying to fall back asleep! Typical...men!
Macy has always been drawn to Karlee since the day we brought the twins home. It's just been recently that Macy has shown an interest in Nicholas. The other day I caught Macy talking and playing with Nicholas on the floor in her bedroom! It was so precious!
The last big first, is that Macy has decided to potty train herself! She has been accident free for five days now. I have her in diapers at night, but the second she wakes up, she takes off her diaper and puts on her princess panties. I don't even have to ask her if she needs to go to the potty. She just goes! It's amazing! I tried for three months before the twins were born to potty train her but gave up! They say when kids are ready, they'll do it on their own. There is no use in forcing it! So true! Now I only have two bums to change, instead of three! Hurray!

Blessing Day!
Today we blessed Nicholas and Karlee in our home ward of Windsor Lake. It was wonderful having my mom (still) here and my older brother, Jon, and his wife, Tonya, who flew out from Utah just for the occasion. We've had such a great time with them. Mark gave both Nicholas and Karlee very sweet blessings and the babies were little angels. It made for a very special day!
It's hard to believe these twins are already one month old. Our life has changed dramatically, to say the least! It's been hard juggling two newborns and a 2 1/2 year old and I have been completely overwhelmed at times, but today, holding these little babies in my arms, has made it all worth it. My family is everything to me and I love so much being a mom!
