Almost 2 months!

Just thought I would give everyone a quick update on the White family! We are all making it! We are in the process of weaning the girls and starting them on formula! I can't wait to sleep a whole night! It is a long and painful process for both me and the girls.....I know you gals know what I am talking about! Since spring break we have been trying to get out and about with all three girls. Just testing our limits with the girls and seeing what we can handle. So far, it hasn't been all that bad. We even got to church for SS one Sunday....it only took like 2 1/2 hours to get everyone ready and all bags packed.....but we made it! I think it has been good to get out and get going again. This experience with twins has been so different (obviously) than with Hannah. I was so laid back with everything with Hannah. The sleep deprivation didn't bother me, nursing her wasn't any trouble, she didn't really cry that much, sleeping through the night was a cinch...blah, blah, blah......and then there was Madi and Kinley. I mean this in the nicest way girls, but ya'll have been anything but routine babies! They change everyday, how they like to be consoled, where they like to sleep, it is just crazy! All that being said, we just love them to pieces and we know this time will pass before we know it. I heard a song on the other morning (when I left Chad at home for a brief 20 minutes with all 3 girls after a hard night with the girls and a rough morning with Hannah) and it just talked about how these moments, though they seem rough at the time, won't last for long. Before we know it, they will be going to kindergarten, going to their first prom, going off to college, getting married.....etc, etc. Of course I started crying and sped back home and just held onto my girls. No matter how hard it is now or may be down the road, I still want to cherish these time with my girls. They want always need me like they do now. Anyway, you can tell I haven't had much sleep....I get pretty cheesy emotional these days. Sleep is coming on soon though! Here are some pics of the girls! We go for their 2 month check-ups on the 15th. I am so anxious to see how much they have grown!

My sweet girls!
