About Us

About Us
Glenn and I have been married for ten spectacular years. We recently moved to Saudi Arabia, which is obviously very far away from both of our families. We keep this blog updated so we can stay close to our friends and fam and to keep a record of our family adventures. Glenn is enjoying his new job and I am loving being a stay-at-home mom. We have two sweet little boys, Tate and Finn and two darling twin baby girls, Taryn and Kenna. We love them to pieces. We also love date nights, good movies, good food, and being with each other.

Picture Tuesday, 3 weeks old

These little ladies turned 3 weeks old on Tate's 6th birthday. We had a very busy day with birthday festivities and we also had to venture to main camp to get the girls passport pictures taken.  It's a long process to get the girls their passports, iqamas, and multi-entry/exit visas, all of which we need to have by April so we can take them to London.  So Glenn is chipping away at all the paperwork and processes every day.  It's a mess and I'm so glad Glenn is taking care of it all!

The girls are growing.  This week is the first week that we've really been able to tell that they are getting bigger.  Their little feet now reach to the toes of the cute pajamas that Auntie Aubry gave them that we brought them home from the hospital in.  It's the worst seeing their teensy bodies stretch out and fill out.  They're still pretty little and don't quite fit into 0-3 month clothes yet, but they are growing and it happens so fast I just want them to stay teensy a little bit longer.  This week they are getting just a little too squished in the same bouncy chair.  The first two weeks of their lives we'd snug them up in the same bouncy chair for their naps but they're getting just a bit too big now and they need their own space.

They're still sleeping pretty well.  We usually get anywhere from 3.5 to 5 hours (if we're really lucky) at a stretch.  Usually Kenna is the one waking up hungry and we have to wake Taryn up to get her to eat at the same time so they stay on the same schedule.  They really don't cry very much at all.  They wake up and cry when they're hungry, but otherwise they're either awake and happy or asleep.  Every few days they have a little fussy period in the evening for an hour or so but it's not every night.

We're really lucky that they've been such good babies so far.  I overheard Glenn telling someone the other day that these two have been an easier adjustment than either of our first two babies.  I thought, "That might be an exaggeration."  Then I thought about it, and he's probably right.  Thus far, they've been incredibly easy babies and we are SO grateful!

And some brother snuggles for good measure.

OK, I'm going to need you to start putting bows in their hair or headbands. I still look at them and see Tate and Finn. Ha They are filling out so cute!
