Big outting!

Well last night was the first big outting for the babies. We went to a wedding, where there were a lot of people! Most of them were people we knew, who hadn't yet met the babies. So there was lots of 'can we hold one?' I actually got to eat dinner and dessert because everyone was so eager to hold them!

It was weird though, because I'm not used to other people holding them. Really only my closest friends and just a few people from church have held them, and I was always right there the entire time someone else had them. At the wedding though, Olivia was being held by someone (who I trusted of course) at another table right next to us. And some of the people kind of walked around with them, and one of those people actually handed Sarah off to someone else (with out asking I might add--rude) who I didn't even know! At that point I promptly got up and took her back. It didn't occur to me that so many people from church would be there, and would want to hold them. I just hadn't prepared myself at all for that. I don't mind people holding them, I'm just still an over protective first time mom. So when they weren't right at my table or with someone who I am really close to I got really uneasy. I really didn't want it to become a pass the baby(ies) kind of thing.

It was a very fun wedding though. The babies didn't seem to mind the loud music, and I don't think they minded being held by other people either. They weren't really fussy at all until we started to leave. They were so adorable too! I had them wear these little dresses my Mom bought them. They were red velvet on the top with like a lacy skirt with flowers embroidered on it, and silk/polyester bloomers. It was adorable! We weren't able to get pictures just because it was pretty hectic but we'll get pics of them in those dresses next time. They are too cute not to capture in a photo. I also had little head bands on them. I love dressing them up! It's just too bad they spit up on EVERYTHING. So they stay cute for about 10 minutes if I'm lucky and then it gets spit up on. Sarah is especially spit up-py. I call her the spit up queen. She kind of has projectile spit up even. One time she spit up and it completely missed her and it ended up all over me! I was like...wow. That is impressive.
Anyway--it was a fun night. There was another baby there that was 4 weeks old and she was much bigger than Sarah and Olivia. I have to say though, I see some babies and I thank God I didn't have to deliver such big heads! I am very thankful to have had small babies. Yet another perk of having twins--lower birth weights. haha.

Well, I better get to sleep. Both babes are FINALLY asleep so I better follow suite.
Mommy-sham out.
