Due Date/Binky-aholics Anonymous

Today was the official due date for the girls, so they are officially now supposed to be born. They are still probably on the small side for a regular newborn, but are growing fast. As of yesterday, Maya was 7lb8.5oz and Kate was 6lb14.5oz.

They are much more awake than they used to be and are noticing their environment a bit more. This morning, Maya noticed the Whoozit (a small toy) I was holding in front of her face and actually followed it with her eyes when I moved it around! Oh, and the girls are turning into total binky addicts - which is useful in some ways because it's an easy way to get them to stop crying if they are upset. It's quite a change from when they were first born and they'd get exhausted from trying to suck down a few cc's from a bottle - now they can suck on a binky for hours and still eat a good meal.
