Elsie just needed a dusting and to cut off her tail :) Danny needed some spots here and there to be cleaned up. Sammy....well Sammy needed a big boys haircut. That child had a lot of hair. Here are some pics and videos:

We had a great visit with Donna and Barbara our NICU nurses yesterday! We were so excited to visit with them that we didn't take any pics! AHHH! Next time we will take extra. We miss those ladies and it was wonderful to spend some time with them :)
Babies are loving swim lessons. Last week I couldn't go in the pool because of my gall bladder surgery, so I was able to take pictures and videos. Danny really loosened up and got into it. It was great to see. And thanks to Auntie Betty for being my replacement and coming out in the cold and getting in the pool!
Danny is soooo close to walking now. He walks with the the walking toys all over the place and gets super mad when he runs into something and has to stop. Elsie has joined in the fun and now parades around with the toys as well, but she is a little more cautious and not quite as fast. Sammy had been shying away, but in the last few days he has really taken a liking to it, and is growing more confident by the minute. Today I caught him purposely letting go of both hands and trying to free stand. He was laughing at himself when he started losing his balance. That kid cracks me up.
On the feeding front, some great news...Danny is finally feeding himself! In the past, he used to just scream at the food in hopes that it would jump in his mouth. No matter how many times I used his fingers to pick it up and put in his mouth, he wasn't making the connection. That didn't stop me from making him try every day, and then suddenly this week he just started grabbing 5 or 6 pieces of food at once and shoving them in. I thought 'great, now he's going to choke', but alas, he is figuring it out. And mealtimes are much quieter. Yaaa! Sammy has been feeding himself for almost 2 months, and Elsie still requires diva status hand feeding by her Momma.
Tried the sippy cup again. Epic fail. But at least I know now Elsie will be good at baseball as she threw hers clear across the room when I gave it to her. Sammy just held it and cried. Danny just screamed at the cup in hopes the milk would jump out and flow into his mouth. Good times. Maybe I'll try again next week. SIgh.
