Take Back The Blog


















Greetings Blog-Watchers. Elias here! Tonight we have a change of plans -- Rather than the mommy or daddy writing this update, Gabe and I have hijacked the blog and are posting this one on our own. You'd think this would be difficult, but Gabriel and I have worked hard to exhaust the two big people. At this point they would sleep through a hurricane, so as long as we don't cry, we pretty much have the run of the house at night. Every couple of hours we head back to the crib and fuss a bit until they get up and rock us for a while...we like to keep them on their toes!

Okay, Gabriel typing now. Let's get down to business!

E and I wanted to write personally to encourage all of you to support us as we walk in the March of Dimes March for Babies this month. You may think our mom and dad put us up to this, but really it is all our doing. We signed up one night and put it on the calendar. Mom is so addled, she thinks she put it there. (Do we have these two figured out, or what?!?!?) The thing is, we think the March of Dimes is awesome! They support lifesaving research, services, education and advocacy that help babies get a healthy start -- especially premature babies. You may have not realize this, but we were once premature babies ourselves! No really, it's true! Here's some photographic evidence!



See -- we used to be TINY! Thanks to interventions funded by the March of Dimes, we survived being born 2 months early and went from these little guys to this:

We have our walking shoes on!

They WERE tiny! (and yet adorable) and that picture with the puzzle mat for a hat is great.
