Rolly Polly

Hannah rolled for the 1st time this afternoon. By bedtime it was up to 20 or so times, from back to belly. She gets so mad when she gets on her belly though, hopefully soon she will learn to roll back to her back. It was so fun to watch!

zoo egg hunt

Sunday we went to our annual Zoo egg hunt. It was CRAZY. I don't remember it being this bad, but Lydia did the Egg Hunt twice and never got a single egg, she did get some candy though and was happy with that. She even was excited to see the Easter Bunny himself. Hannah was asleep when we got to the bunny so she missed him.

4 Months

Hannah had her 4 months check up Monday and she passed with flying colors!
14lbs 3oz! The shots sucked but we made it through. I am thinking there might be a tooth coming in but that we will find out soon enough.

I have finally come to terms with her being on formula and have decided to give all my frozen milk to a Milk Bank out of a hospital in Denver. It is used by babies who are in life threatening situaions and premies. I feel very warm inside knowing that I might save a babies life! I read many of the thank you's the mothers who use the milk bank wrote and I cried and cried, as I have never been in that situation but it made me look at my kids and thank God for them. Even though Hannah has had and continues to have struggles none are as bad as what these babies have gone through or the parents. I couldn't even imagine and to be honest nor do I want to imagine.

With that note, here are the two cutie pies!


Hannah always is checking to see where Sister is!


pure love, I find Lydia doing this all the time, she just LOVES her baby sissy!

Photos

Here are a few new photos of the girls. WE have been working out in the yard getting our garden ready. Lydia has planted some seeds of her own this year and we are in a race to see who's sprouted first, well she won and is so proud of herself.
Hannah continues to grow and develop. She has now been seen reaching for her toys, giggling, talking or cooing a lot and trying to sit herself up from a laying down position (she must have some strong tummy muscles) we increased her medicine last week and it seemed to help so we are doing well again. I got her crib ready yesterday to sleep in ( raised it to a 45 degree angle, made a nest so she can thrash around when she gets the reflux) for the 1st time in 2 months but we wimped out and put her back in her inclined rocker. I guess why fix what isn't broke but she is starting to wake up more often and I think it is because she wants to strech out and can't do so in the rocker.
Here are the photos.
