Well it's been quite a while since I posted, so let me just mention the highlights.
In the middle of the night, technically Easter, Heather went to the ER in what ended up being a gall bladder attack. Apparently it's common for women to develop gall bladder problems during and immediately after pregnancy. Something about babies squishing all your organs out of the way just seems to mess some of them up. Because of the severity of the attack, they recommended surgery on an emergency schedule, and after the insurance company stuff was all worked out, Heather had her gall bladder removed on April Fools Day! No fooling.
Kenneth and Sarah continue to grow. Right now it looks like they'll both have dark hair, and Kenneth's eyes are already turning brown. Heather still holds out hope that they'll end up hazel like hers. Sarah's eyes are still blue, and Heather thinks it would be neat if she had the dark hair and blue eyes of John.
Johanna has started gymnastics. We wanted to make sure she has something just for her, and that will help her burn off some energy while encouraging us to get moving on Saturday mornings to get her to her class at nine. She loves it. She's also a natural at the things they are asking her to do, as the teacher was surprised when I told him it was only her first class after the trial session last week. He was a sub for the regular teacher and assumed she'd been there a lot the way she responded to instructions. John thinks it's because she's had lots of practice jumping on his stomach and leaping around on the beds. I hope she continues to enjoy it this much because it's so much fun watching her try these new things.
We had a photo shoot several weeks ago, and got some excellent pictures. Some of my favorites are in the entry above for you to enjoy. Johanna wasn't very interested in pictures, but we got some good ones once she found a very fascinating caterpillar!
