Family Time & 4 Month Stats

As some of you may already know, corporate America has thrown our family a bit of a curve ball. I have a little of extra time on my hands so we decided to take advantage of it and go as a family to the zoo. It was a beautiful day to be outside and just enjoy. Charlie was more fun this year really wanting to see all of the animals and she really liked the monkeys, giraffes and zebras. Unfortunately the bears weren't swimming like they have been in the past...she really wanted to see the polar bear. Gwyneth and Lillian were surprisingly awake for most of the day and took everything in. We took along a picnic so we didn't miss a second of the beautiful weather.

Overall, a great day and it took my mind of the job hunt that hangs over my head now. So the silver lining of all this is that while corporate America has taken a turn that I didn't expect, at least I get to spend some extra time with ALL my girls. Nothing wrong with that! I truly believe everything happens for a reason so hopefully I'll look back on this in a few months and the reason will be apparent. Just wish, I knew this path beforehand so it wouldn't be so worrisome. But what fun would that be right?! Here are reasons why I continue to smile even in this bit of a stressful period.

Lillian did not want to take a picture, Charlie wanted her to be quiet and Gwyneth just ate so she was pretty calm

4 Month Stats

Hard to believe but Gwyneth and Lillian are already four months old. While some days seem to last forever the time really is flying by. We took them for their four month doctor's appointment and the doctor was happy with the girls' height, weight and overall health.

Gwyneth is 25 inches and 14lbs. 7oz. Just a little smaller, Lillian is 24.5 inches and 13 lbs 9.5 oz.
