5 months old

Madeline, Matthew and Jackson can roll from their tummies to their backs. Jackson is still working on rolling from his back to his tummy. Madeline found her feet on yesterday. She thinks they are amazing. Matthew is still observing everything and everyone before he commits. Feeding is much better. Jackson must have a bottle of milk prior to feeding him food. Matthew can be convinced to get through half his meal before he demands his bottle. Madeline is now eating but require trading 4 sucks of her pacifier for a spoon of food. Imagine how long that takes! Afterwards she will take her bottle.

We are still struggling with Jackson's skin. We have gone through 3 rounds of antibiotics. We've decided it's time to see a dermatologist.

We enjoyed Christmas with the children. It was just last December 20th when I found out I was pregnant. It was a lot of work to prepare the children to be gone away from home but it was worth it. The babies were able to spend a lot of time with my grandparents and parents. I feel blessed!


The West Family wish all of you a spectacular New Year!!

I was just thinking about your babies and how they just hit the big 6 months. I am happy to hear that things are progressing. It is still amazing to think how you two can raise three babies at the same time. Wooo. One is hard enough. I knew you were tough from working with you. Tell the kids that thier NICU buddy said hello.
