5 month update


The girls are doing great and growing by leaps and bounds. I don't have their official weights at this time so all I know is that they're constantly growing out of clothing. Ruby has taken a strong liking to her johnny jump up (that's what it was called when I was a little one), and Layla enjoys her exersaucer. Layla loves to practice standing on laps and anywhere else she's assisted. Ruby doesn't seem to care much about standing but is somewhat taking an interest in it since she started using the johnny jump up. The ladies tend to be a hard audience to get a laugh out of but when it happens it was well worth all the effort. Both girls are constantly babbling, sometimes they babble with a bottle in their mouth.
This week I began trying to teach the girls how to drink from a cup and last night they got their first taste of rice cereal. Both attempts went pretty well and the looks on their faces were priceless.
My husband recently found out that he's being laid off on the 18th of April so he's doing everything he can to network and prepare for the loss. He's currently studying to get his contractors license in OR and he already has one for WA. He has a few leads but nothing for sure at this time.

I know that the girls will have grown by leaps and bounds by the time I get there to see them. It sounds like they are doing well and I will keep you all in my prayers with the job situation as well. :)
