Updated pics & St. Patrick's Day

Big sister giving some lovin to Grady
Big sister picking out her own outfit....in 78 degree weather!!! (yes, those are winter boots on her feet, that she put on all by herself...we took a walk down the street with her in this attire, but on the walk she was also sporting a red backpack)

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!!
We finally made it out of the house as a family of 5...it only took us 2 weeks. We headed to the annual O'Knutson party to have some melt-in-your-mouth corned beef. I hardly saw Aubry all night - she was too busy playing with Kyri and Charlie. Morgyn and Grady slept the entire time, waking up to eat once, and then fell back asleep.
This is probably the only time they will be in the exact same outfit... Can you tell who's who?? The answer will be at the bottom of the post...Good Luck!! 
 Our little leprechaun
The three amigos in their Irish green... We missed a photo opportunity of ALL the children.. Tessa, Gwyneth, Lillian, Morgyn, and Grady were just too busy doing other things and couldn't join the "big girls"
Mr. Grady, the showoff...already holding his own bottle!!! (only lasted a short while, but happens every once in a while)

We got a wonderful visit from Julie (and Jennifer) 
In the last update, I'm sure you all thought how together "super dad" had it, when I took a picture of him feeding Morgyn and Grady at the same time... Well, I figured out a way to be comfortable doing it; sitting back, on the couch, all snuggled close together...
Here is another chance to correctly guess who's who...answer below
My tutu girls!!! Aubry asked if Morgyn wanted to share her red skirt, then said "lay her on my tummy". You'll notice that in the next few pictures of Aubry, she is wearing her pink tutu...these pictures were taken in a span of 3 days...she's a little attached to it right now :)
Also, she is wearing a pink tutu, Morgyn is wearing a red skirt. Even though they are the same material, just different colors, if you don't say it right the almost-3-year-old will correct you!!
 
Let's go fly a kite!!! Aubry has been begging to go fly her new ladybug kite ever since Grandma Karen gave it to her last Monday. When we finally got a good wind, Aubry refused to hold the string, and insisted that it was flying too high... Here she is, trying to catch it...
 
Trying to enjoy this great weather as much as possible, Aubry went outside to help Grandma Karen clean the windows on her car. When she came in she proudly told me she had something for me, and handed me 4 dandelions...how sweet...
Answer to "Who's who?"
In both chances to guess, Morgyn is on the left and Grady is on the right.

In other news, the babies are doing really well. They are both noticeably bigger to me. We are getting some decent sleep at night. They will still go every 3 to 4 hours and will take 3 oz, sometimes 4. Grady has been getting really fussy after eating, getting very gassy and upset, so yesterday we switched him to a different formula that is for "fussiness and gas". We'll try it for a few days to see if we can tell a difference. 
Tomorrow will be the first time I am in charge of all 3 of my children for the entire day... keep your fingers crossed that we all survive and that there are future blog updates!! :)

Love the updates - so glad you keep them coming!! I can't wait to meet them...maybe mid April?? I know you'll do great with them on your own, it seems scary at first but you'll figure it out! :) They are so so cute! And Aubry's hair is getting so long!
