It's been a really hard week as we have all been adjusting to the loss of Aslan. It is so strange to walk past our bedroom and not see him there or hear him "yelling" at us for attention. Anya, our female tortie, really seems to miss him, too as she spends the whole day on the part of the bed that she and Aslan used to hang out on. On a happier note, the girls are doing very well. Callia is 10 lbs 11 oz and is smiling up a storm. She loves to "talk" and just tonight was cooing for Daddy as he was singing a Grateful Dead song to her. Maia is 10 lbs 2 oz...a bit smaller than Callia because she wasn't eating as much for awhile there. Partly because she decided she didn't like her bottles anymore and then she caught a cold. But now she is eating well again and using Callia's bottles which have a faster flow nipple. She is definitely a person who knows what she wants and that includes wanting to be held all the time. Sometimes, while I am attending to Callia, Maia works herself up into a "tizzy" until I finally come over to her, put the sling over my shoulder and the minute she sees it, she sighs. She loves riding along in the sling as long as she is close to Mommy.
