Who Loves Ya? Everyone does!

We went on a 10 day trip to Chicago recently, and then closed on our new house right after that. It's been a whirlwind month for the Wei's, and a really good one. It became even more clear to me in Chicago that the girls and Jack and I are loved by so many people! We're incredibly lucky. Thank you to everyone who took time out of your busy lives to visit with us in Chicago! In celebration of all the people who have touched the girls' lives in their short 6 months on planet Earth, I've made a poster of "20 great hugs". Many many more people have been influential to them, but there's only so much space on a 16 x 20 page! And I don't have photos of everyone who has sent gifts and well wishes. This poster will get printed and put in the playroom, so the girls can see how many people loved them before they were even half a year old. :)


If I were cool like my buddy Dan Z, I would have made outlines of each person in the key rather than just write their names. But I have two babies, so I'd rather get the extra sleep.
Speaking of sleep, the girls have been sleeping very well ever since we moved to Indy, and so I'm now spoiled with over 7 hours sleep each night! It's still not uninterrupted, but from what I've seen of my nephews, we shouldn't expect uninterrupted sleep until the girls go off to college. I'll take what I can get! Their big milestone the last few weeks is that they are both pushing up to their knees when they are doing tummy time. And Dani is actually making forward progress (aka, CRAWLING!) rather than just rolling and doing push ups!! I'm excited and scared at the same time. I'm sure in my next post I'll tell y'all about my new "herding" skills. Maybe Plato will step up and become a baby-herding dog.
