They Keep Growing and Growing and...

Today is your chance to be a part of history....get out and VOTE!!!
Sorry it has taken so long to update the blog, but Truth and Wisdom have a tendancy to keep our hands full. A lot of good things have happened in the last week or so.

Bryan and Louise have both gone back to work. Even though Louise only went back to work for one day. She just couldn't stay away from her grand babies. I am not sure what we would have done without her and Willie.

Truth and Wisdom had their 3-week follow up appointment. Truth is now 6 lb - 9 0z, and Wisdom is 7 lb - 3oz. So in the last two weeks, they have both gained a pound. Additionally, Truth had to have an ultrasound on his hips. This is a standard procedure for babies born breech. Thankfully, there were no dislocations and they both have rec'd a clean bill of health.

October 31st was their first Halloween. Shannon put her creativitity and 20 years experience as a wardrobe stylist to work and converted Truth and Wisdom into carrots (for all our healthy eaters, don't worry, they were organic :-)
Not only is today election day, it is also Mikayla 10th birthday, Happy Birthday Mikayla!!!
