Pedersen Twins (plus one!): Easter, Bumbo, Moby, Teething

19 weeks, wow! It's getting to the point where I refer to them much more often as 4 months old rather than their age in weeks. Milestone!

My week was busy busy with work. The only way the dishes got done was thanks to Jack doing them TWICE. All the dishes. Twice. And he cleaned the cat box area, and he doesn't even really like cats. What a father in law, I tell you.

We had a lovely Easter. Thanks to my Aunt Kris for the cute outfits seen in the pictures below. We got to visit with Rebecca and her little gestating one, visited my family in Watertown, and then hung out with Nick and met his awesome girlfriend Brianna. Call me biased, but anyone who is immediately enamored of my lovely ladies is alright in my book :-)

Baby news: Signe is definitely teething. Kris gave me the great tip of soaking a corner of a diaper in cool water or putting it wet in the fridge/freezer and then letting her chow down on it. Really seems to help. Freya is on her way - no pain yet I don't think but droolier as Signe was/is.

In fun news, we got the Bumbo out yesterday! For those who don't know, it's a baby seat. And SO super cute. See below for illustrations. We could have gotten it out a long time ago probably, I realize now. Actually it was on my enormously huge mental list of "things to do" for at least a month. But Rebecca reminded me yesterday of it and I'm so happy she did. They just look like such big girls sitting in it and seem to have lots of fun. Also, the seat is already almost snug due to cloth-diaper butt.

And in another breakthrough baby-positioning discovery, I put Signe in the Moby facing forward last night and it was WONDERFUL. Again, was on my mental list for ages "figure out how to work Moby facing out." The thing is the manual/website doesn't tell you. There's some people online who seem to think it's bad. But with the amount of warnings and disclaimers on baby stuff, mostly I figure if it doesn't tell me not to it's probably fine. And I know my little ladies well enough now that I know if something isn't right. Anyway. Forward-facing. Yes. Moms online said "it overwhelmed my baby to face out, she wanted to face in and have the security of mom". HA. Overwhelmed, these babies, no. Underwhelmed when facing ol' mom is the problem.

So overall good if crazy week. Situation normal.

Photos! (BTW I've stopped trying to edit myself really...just too many cute ones)

Thanks Marie for the super cute dress!

Where ever did Signe get her bottom lip sad face from?

Happy baby pose!

Shoulder ride/eat some sweet mama hair time

Aw look at Kurt being all handsome

When the stars align I get to start my (late) morning with this. Ah love it!

Bumbo is the best

Truly a pirate baby

Rebecca and Freya! (so in awe that she can comfortably sit on the floor at 32 weeks pregnant)

Rebecca was nice enough to take a family Easter picture. She tried to get the girls to look at the camera. She took this picture and said "well Alli's excited anyway"
