The New Burritt Twins

On Wednesday afternoon, we welcomed two more daughters into our family. Lillian Janice and Gwyneth Austin were born at 1:51 and 1:52 weighing 5 lbs 12 oz and 5 lbs 9 oz. Both girls and Mom are doing great! I can't tell you how happy and proud I am of all my girls! Charlie met her sisters later on Wednesday and while she may not really "get it", it was awesome to see her being a big sis. We'll be going home on Sunday to begin the journey of raising twins. Yes, it is a little bit of an intimidating thought but we're looking forward to it. Like I always say, what fun is it if it's not an adventure!

February Update

As you may have already heard, Donna and I are a new Aunt and Uncle again. Kyle and Teri welcomed their new addition to the family, Tessa Beverly, into the world last Friday. She is absolutely adorable and is home now and everyone is doing great!

The new family of 4!

Charlie was so happy to meet Tessa!

A few updates on our side....Donna is doing well and the doctors have been giving her the thumbs up. We have been getting everything ready for the twins to arrive. Last week I finished painting their room and Charlotte's crib is put together again for them. We also found out that 2 infant car seats and 1 toddler car seat actually can fit in a Kia Sorrento but is a VERY tight fit. Even the police officer who checked the car seats recommended a new car with a third row. (Thanks Sherlock Holmes) Donna's Kia will suffice for now but come spring or summer, it will be time to go car shopping. Oh goody!

Charlotte is doing great and always points to Donna's belly and says "babies". I'm sure she'll be in for a shock when they come but it's really cute to see her hug and kiss Mom's belly.

More to come...............
