Anthony is feeling much better. He hardly sounds congested at all today. We had his follow-up appointment this morning and she confirmed that the rsv has run its coures and although he may cough once in a while for a week or two, he's over it. She was surprised at how "easy" he had it... It didn't seem very easyto me, but I guess it was a very mild case.
Seriously, I could just melt.
Anna is always laying down next to her brother. She just loves to be near him. She also LOVES to pet his hair. We're constantly saying "gentle" and she (so far) has been very gentle with him!
Oh how I love these babies!

Anna and Anthony sure have proud grandparents! And boy do they get spoiled by all of them!

I wish people weren't always telling me I have my hands full, like there's something wrong with that. I'd rather them full than empty. Frankly, having my hands full brings me great joy. Yes, my life has gone from busy to busier. And yes, chaos ensues often in my life. And yes, I change a whole lot of poo in a day. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. I wish people didn't have such a negative view of the children. I am very aware that I have two kids very close in age and I am thrilled that they are. I wish people would stop stating the obvious and instead say "Oh wow, you are very blessed!" Because that's how I feel. (I guess I should say that I do hear that once in a while too. Especially because these two babies are absolutely gorgeous! People stop to gawk at their beautifulnes)
Okay, enough ranting :-)
I am so thankful to the people who have brought us meals. That has made this week so much easier. And they've been super delicious too! It really has been a huge help.

They're so beautiful! Love the pictures! :)
Glad that Anthony is feeling better.
As far as #6 goes, I get that A LOT. But you know what...I totally feel like my hands are full. I am overwhelmed ALL THE TIME. Yes, I am thankful and blesses that my kids are close in age, but it is A LOT of extra work. The first few months were easy because Isaiah slept a lot, but now that he is awake most of the day, I can barely make it until Daddy comes home at 6:30 each night.
Don't get me wrong, I love my babies and I am so glad that Isabella is not an only child, but I some times wish that I had more time to just sit and snuggle and play with her.
I have four and I get that statement All.The.Time. I have to let it slide off my back.
I'm so glad the baby's better. That is a scary, scary bug. My little chromosomally-gifted girl caught it at 5 1/2 weeks and was on a vent for a week in the PICU(she had a heart condition that complicated it), so yes, however hard it must have seemed, it probably *was* "easy" from a doctor's perspective!
(Somehow I'm guessing that story isn't uplifting and supportive. I'm sorry. :/ )
I love all the pics you posted ... What a proud big sister!!! And proud grandparents!!!
What a gorgeous family!
