Where did grandpa and grandma go?

How many diapers did we go through today?

Brother and sister "bonding"
Today Grandpa and Grandma Beckering left for Minnesota. It was a difficult send off since we have become pretty attached to them and don't quite no how we are going to do it without the extra hands. It was hard for them too and we are so thankful for the 2 weeks of bonding that Ella and Nathan had with their grandparents. I know I am really going to have to keep up this blog because my mom will be looking at it all the time!!!! As you see from the pictures above, our little babes are getting a lot bigger. Amazing how quickly they can change in 2 1/2 weeks and already we are starting to see their personalities come through. Ella is our "little miss piggy." She loves to grunt and grunt and grunt. Often times we walk into her room thinking she is awake, but she is grunting in her sleep. Nathan is our low key guy. If he is fed and diapered, life is good. He does occasional grunting, but I think he sounds more like a goat!

Congratulations!

You have such beautiful babies! Glad to hear everything went good and you were able to deliver close to your due date. Tricia kept me informed and called me as soon as the twins were born. We are so excited for you guys and are glad to see you join the "parental ranks" with the rest of us : ) Can't imagine how much work 2 at once must be--but it sounds like you are handling it well.

Congrats again!

Love your blog! Ella and Nathan are simply beautiful and I can't wait to actually see them, maybe once the weather warms a bit. Hey, I'm a good grandma babysitter in GR if you need that for a few hours to go shopping or such while in the "big" city!
