4 months!

Our girls are now 4 months. Time has flown and a lot has happened in these 4 months. The unpacking is almost complete and for once in our life everything has a place, is organized (to my liking) and our garage is CLEAN. We still have some decorating to do and furniture to come in but we're on the downhill of all that. We have had a ton of help from our families getting settled and a lot of help with the girls as well. We've also hired a former student of mine, Ragen, to help us twice a week with the girls so that I can have outings, go to the grocery store, etc. She is absolutely wonderful with the girls and we feel so lucky to have found her. Our girls have had their 4 month check-up and are in the 16th and 18th percentiles, not adjusted for their prematurity. We're so pleased with their health and progress. Both Caroline and Claire have a flat spot on their heads from the womb and laying on one another so we're getting this evaluated for possible helmets. We're consulting with cranial technologies at the end of the month in Dallas and if it is something we need then we'll be traveling there weekly for the next 2-3 months. Initially, the idea of this all made me sad, but at the end of the day it is cosmetic and I know our girls will thank us for this sacrifice in the future. It's a good thing I am not working! Everything else is going as we had hoped for. Things are becoming more consistent at Dustin's firm and they are all getting settled. He has hired an associate and an office manager. Fortunately, they are very busy and we know feel this was absolutely the best choice to have made for our family. You can check out Dustin's website: http://www.brooks-firm.com/ They are still working on their profiles and it will be up soon! Below are some pictures of our girls over the last two months. : )
