An odd weekend...

...we were all together!

It was pretty awesome. For 48 hours Mary Jane and I were together. It was crazy. The craziness quickly went to our heads. On Saturday we suddenly felt brave enough to face the outside world. That's right....we left the house...with the girls. Sure we considered going out just the two of us, but while Emma Jane does seem to be pretty responsible she still can't quite dial 911 in case of an emergency. She gets stumped after the first 1. But can you blame her? Two 1's is pretty tricky.
So we took them with us.
First we drove through the Starbucks drive through...cause we need some liquid courage to make it through the rest of our errands. Next we went to the dry cleaner where Mary Jane waited in the car as I went in to get the dry cleaning. Things went pretty well for me, but it must have been tough in the car because all of Mary Jane's liquid courage was gone by the time I got back. With this harrowing experience over and all seemingly having gone well we went really nuts and went to Target. Now Target was a significantly more tricky expedition. In order to accomplish this feat we actually needed to take the girls out of the car and into the store with us. It was a surreal experience. The building was filled with people, and none of them stared at us, none of them cared we had twins, none of them seemed to even know who we were. It could be the first time in five months we have been in a place like that.
Fresh from our Saturday victories we decided to take life by the horns and threw all caution to the wind. We went to Church. It turns out that Church, while also a building full of people, really has nothing in common with Target. Target was filled with people who didn't know us, while the Church was filled with people who did. At Target no one cared that we were there, at Church every one was shocked to see us there. Shocked in a positive way. Here we were amongst a group of people who have been feverishly praying for us for five months. It was really great to see all the love people have for our two little beautifuls. This was just a first time to Church, so we kept things simple. We really didn't want to overwhelm the girls so we didn't pass them around. We were just happy they made it through the service without any breakdowns. But it was still great to worship as a family.

I would keep blathering on for a while, but it's time to feed the girls.
How's that going?
Not so great. For some reason Emma Jane has been giving us a lot of trouble when it comes to eating, and Parker has slowed down to. If you are looking for a way of praying specifically that would be a great place to start. Thank you for your love and concern.
