A New Normal..

We are finding our new normal, life with two babies :) Its a blast!! I Think everyone should experience a set of twins in their family...going away has a whole new meaning.. I find any excuse I can to stay at home, cause staying at home keeps everyone on schedule and the boys do very well on schedule...
something I am still trying to get used to is no matter how on top of it I am my day can turn upside down in just one hour, example...
Its a Saturday afternoon cleaning is done and I am cleaning up outside the boys are sleeping the rest of the kiddos are having a blast in the woods its going great and I'm getting things done, its 3:00 and so the boys are now awake both hungry, the kiddos realize its time for there 3:00 snack and come in trailing mud and what ever else they were playing with, all of a sudden I have 5 little ones that all want my attention, my clean house is not so clean any more, everyone needs a bath, dinner needs to be made and then its off to church.. sometimes the thought of our Saturday night schedule makes me tired:)

 Last week I did it, I wondered how it the world it could happen but it did, someone asked me one time, 'do you ever forget to feed one of the babies at feeding time'?  of course not I thought... but it did.. I fed Joshua and got distracted with making dinner and a hr. later I cant figure out why Joseph is not happy tried everything and still he screamed..soon I realized wait I did not feed him...Gah.. such a weird feeling...

Joseph is rolling front to back and even getting up on his all fours... he weighs 15lbs 3oz....also started putting them in there walkers.. sleeps all night 9-5 or even sometimes 9-6..although one night this week he kept us up from 1:30 till 3:00 ..I do believe he is started to teethe..

Joshua is a party:) he is always smiling and fussing...hes not rolling at all yet, weighs 15 lbs 14oz
