Eek! Updates!

Okay.. a much overdue update on the ladies: Rebekah has lost some weight and we're currently exploring why, but the likely culprit seems to be GERD, or infant acid reflux. Kimberly has it a bit also, but no so much that she's losing weight (though she's not gaining much either). They're totally happy and healthy otherwise, meeting all of their milestones just fine. They've been giggling for a little while now, and Rebekah can even roll from her back to her belly.

I'm sorry about the delay in updates... I forget what I haven't posted yet. Hmm. They've been sleeping 10 hours at night for the last few weeks. With the reflux it's not the most solid of sleep, but they're doing really well. They still share a crib and fall asleep by themselves in it. Lots of times I'll go in to check on them and they're snuggled up together asleep. They eat about every 4 hours (sometimes 5) during the day. Enough of a routine that I'm getting ready to go back to work. *sniff, sniff*

We're still loving the cloth diapers, but went to disposable at night so we wouldn't have to change them or have them wake up to soaked clothes. They still love to hold hands lots, and to sit in their Bumbo seats. Lots of smiles, giggles, and "talking" to be had.. which makes it that much harder when they have a reflux attack. It's so sad! But they're troopers and once Rebekah starts gaining weight again, we'll all feel better!
