Wow, one month old! Actually, it's 32 days today. In my mind, the first three months with babies are the toughest, sleep-wise. So we're one-third through that period, sometimes called the "fourth trimester". And every now and then they start to sleep longer than three hours between feedings, in particular the stretch after 3.00 am is starting to get longer which is great.

The boys are doing great and are slowly becoming a little bit more aware of their surroundings. Tante Ettie gave us several baby books and when we put them in the crib the look at the bright colors with interest. A little while ago Nora insisted to go into the cribs "met de babies" and she read to them from those books, very cute.

I just had a great nap and am drinking my first coffee in two weeks so I feel great. Like I wrote before, the hardest time with the babies is around 3.00 am if they don't fall asleep well. But otherwise it's great and very special to spend time the five of us.
