Two Months!

Here we are, mid April, and we have about 2"+ of snow on the ground and it's still snowing. Last Saturday it was 75 degrees out and this Saturday maybe we can make a snowman! Today the boys had their two month check up and are doing very well.
Jordan
9 lbs 8 ozs and in the 60% for weight
21" long and 50% for length

Blake
8 lbs 12 ozs and 40% for weight
20 1/2" and 30% for length

Blake is not gaining as fast as Jordan, but the Dr said it's nothing to worry about, he's consistent with his growth curve. They both got their two month old shots and now are pretty grumpy...I think it will be a long night. :(

It seems like things are calming down somewhat in our home and we are settling into our new normal. We still need and are getting a lot of help, which we are very grateful for. Jason is just now feeling better after being sick with the cold/flu for 10 days. Unfortunately he had no more time to take off work and had to go to work anyway. Maybe that's why it took so long to recover. We are all glad daddy's feeling better!

Brooke and Devin are enjoying their new brothers. Yesterday Brooke changed Blake's diaper and redressed him most of the way herself. She loves being able to help take care of them, it makes her feel grown up. Speaking of grown up, I can't believe she's almost five years old. We have her all set to start all day kindergarten in the fall. The other day I found scribbling on the toy box and one of Brooke's pencils. I reminded her she needs to keep her pencils up so Devin does not get them and write on things. I told her he scribbled on the toy box, she replied, "I know, so I drew a circle with a line through it so he would know he's not supposed to do that!"

We will try to update the blog with pictures soon, maybe we can put some April snow shower pictures on here!

Love and blessings!

oops, Yikes! Not another little Ripke....

We have news. Kim is pregnant AGAIN ALREADY! Not sure if it could happen any faster...
