Hey Guys - I can't believe how big the girls are. They are just about the size Brooke and Madison were when they came home. They grow so fast. Enjoy every minute because you won't believe how the time flys. Miss you guys - if you need anything please give me a call!! Love ya - Janie

Hi Guys!
WOW! They are two little chubbers! They are making up for lost time! It just took getting them home to fatten them up that's all! I really enjoyed seeing everyone last weekend, like old home week! Give the girls a smooch for me, we'll have to get together somehow, some way to get their gifts to them from Lisa, with Christmas right around the corner she'll be home again soon! Love to all of you, Mamma Jules

Billie and John,
Ahhhh, no sleep stinks and it is definitely a hard adjustment for new moms and dads. I think it is the one thing no one can truly prepare you for. Just know that millions of parents both understand and feel for your sleepiness. Hang in there, IT WILL GET BETTER! Before you know it, they'll be sleeping 6 hours straight and so will you. Brady had us on a 2 hours sleep regiment...and he was just one little critter! Those little girls are looking so good, and they are starting to get chubby, chubby. We just love chubby cheekers! Hang in there, you're doing great.

Love, Kris

Oh my dear friends, sleep is a thing of your past I'm afraid, but as you said, there is no amount of sleep that would ever make up for watching your darlings grow and change as each new day dawns. Speaking of dawns, I bet you two can't remember seeing so many dawns in your life! I love you all and think of you so very often. Love, Jess

As the years pass you'll never forget being so tired in this stage of the babies' lives. Because you are true parents, you'll also remember the joy of these times with Holland and Eden. Babies are a gift and all parents should remember that. I don't think either of you will ever forget just what a wonderful gift these two are. Just know that many of us definitely have sympathy and compassion for you. You remain in my prayers. God bless you. Connie Wilhoite

Hi Billie, John, Eden, and Holland. You guys look great. Those girls are so beautiful, I miss them. Had many sleepless nights with you girls. I am so happy for all of you. Hope that you will be able to get more sleep soon. I can't believe how big they are getting. They truly are a blessing. I wish you all the very best and hope that I am here sometime when they come in for a visit. I hope that they enjoy their first Christmas.

Hey guys,
Beautiful picture! I know that lack of sleep thing is rough. Hang in there, it goes by so fast. We love you-all. Let us know when it is okay to visit. Can't wait to see you guys again. Love J,L,C,C,C, & J.S.

Billie & John,

Your updates and pictures are so wonderful. Your girls have made tremendous progress and it is so great to see you all so happy and to know that you're all together at home. Much as I love sleeping through the nights now, I do miss those precious moments in the middle of the night soothing and lulling my little Angel back to sleep. It's funny, when the gap started spreading between feedings, I remember laying in bed in the middle of the night waiting for her to wake up. . . and thinking that I should be sleeping! Any ways, it's been a while since I posted, so I just wanted to remind you that I too and thinking about you.

I stumbled across this blog through the (above mentioned) award site, and have to say something. I don't quite know what, since nothing could compare to reading your ENTIRE blog in one night, but there has to be something. I started off this evening feeling pretty sorry for myself, and a little overwhelmed with caring for my 10-month-old, but this has all thrown me totally back into perspective and shown me how lucky we have really been, and how easy life has been for us. I am so incredibly happy for you both that the ending to this tale is a happy one, and am still trying to swallow the lump in my throat when I think of all you have been through. Congratulations on the safe and happy homecoming of your daughters, and thank you so much for creating this blog. Lastly, I would like to apologize if I have intruded on something intended for family and friends.
