The girls



Hi all

This is an attempt to provide everyone who is asking for photos and updates on the twins some information in the limited amount of time that we have left at the end of our somewhat chaotic day. Aila and Zanti are now nearly 4 months old, having grown from there impressive birth weight of 6lb 8 and 6lb 13 to a hefty 15lbs! As a result dads back is shot and mum is not in need of any weight training. Growing like weeds would be a good expression!

While identical in genes, they are different enough that we can tell them apart, most of the time and at least when we see them together and now that they generally sleep through the night mistaken identity at 4am is less of an issue!

For now Aila is the observer, and also the one who cries most when she is unhappy, while Zanti has a little world of her own and is often happy to sit in her bouncy chair and giggle at who knows what? But........ I am sure this will all change next week.

Well, as mum has just returned home (yes dad spent the morning on his own with the girls!) and the little monsters are now asleep, I am going to spend some adult time with Miwako.

So for now, I will leave you all with the Zanti position, what grandads are all about!
