May Review

Where did May go? Maybe it's because I had a newborn or maybe because it feels like it rained all month like it did in April? Either way I'm shocked it's already June. Charlotte is doing really well. She's eating a lot and still sleeping lots too. The only difference I've noticed between her and my other babies is that despite how much she eats, she is not getting chubby. This is due to her heart defect and the calories it requires to keep it pumping. The doctors are happy with her weight gain and development, so I'm satisfied.

Here's a favorite photo of the littles watching a "moo-gick" (as Mary Beth calls it). They are totally engrossed! They watch so few videos that I can put on the most boring educational video and they're glued.
We're doing a little "program" we're doing to help Charlotte's brain development. We do things that stimulate her five senses including music, scents, black & white pictures and textures.
Brie Ella had her piano recital and Jaime Lyn accompanied her on a worship song.
