little messes

i can’t believe this thursday will mark four whole weeks since these little people came into our lives. four weeks of the biggest learning curve i’ve ever tackled and most likely the least amount of sleep i’ve garnered in my 34 years. the bubs are growing growing growing, nearly 7lbs now and their wee little butts finally starting to fit into their cloth diapers.

we’ve been lying low for the most part, especially with the rainy days that set upon us this week. luckily before the cold snap appeared we did venture out for a lovely fall hike at oregon ridge state park. we popped the little ones into some carriers and wandered in the woods for a while with the pup. it was just so nice to be out of the house for a spell and breathing the crisp fall air. i’d love to say they enjoyed it as well, but mostly they were sleeping, okay there’s no mostly in that statement they slept the entire time with the exception of the drive home when vera screamed for nearly 12 miles straight. as soon as i pulled over to try to calm her down she stopped and fell asleep. such is the life of a baby.

i haven’t quite yet gotten down a routine for my day. i seem to quickly run out of time between feedings and diaper changes. but darn they are adorable and if all i have time to do is snap a few photos of their little faces, well that’s a good day in my book.
