Stormy Weather


We had our first typhoon pass over us a few days ago. It certainly did not live up to all the hype. The winds howled a little, but we've heard louder. The rain poured down, but we've definitely had more rain before. We battened down our hatches preparing for what was billed to be a category 3 storm only to be disappointed by the storm itself. Honestly I was relieved that the storm wasn't fiercer. Gabriella and I were able to sleep through the whole thing. Well Gabriella was, I still had to get up to feed babies during the night. The baby girls have only been around 2 weeks and they've already survived a typhoon. August was quite an exciting month for us.
The babies 2 week appointment went great. They are both gaining weight. Genevieve is now over 7 pounds and Julia is almost 6 and a half. They are finally filling out the 0-3 month sized clothes. In fact I think Genevieve may be starting to grow out of the newborn size. The girls also accompanied Gabriella to a birthday party over the weekend. The big sister was thrilled to show off our newest family members to all her friends. We are gearing up for Gabriella's first day of kindergarten on Tuesday. The backpack is packed, the lunch is picked and she is ready. In the picture she is showing her sisters how she can write her name. If August was an exciting month I can only imagine what September is going to bring.
