Quints 5th Birthday

It is so hard to believe but five years ago today the quints were born at 32 weeks. At 7:29 am Alyssa came into this world weighing 3 pounds 9 ounces, at 7:30 am Emily was born as the smallest one weighing 3 pounds even, at 7:31 am Lindsey came weighing 3 pounds 4 ounces and a few seconds later Hyrum was born weighing 3 pounds 1 ounce, then Austin came last at 7:32 am weight 3 pounds and 9 ounces. All breathing on their own and doing well. I remember thinking about this time how badly I wanted to see them but at the same time how sore I was. Looking back on the past five years I can not begin to describe how interesting and enjoyable my life has been. These five sweet babies came into this world a big hit and they continue to be one as they grow older. It amazes me how fast the time has really gone and even though I can still see them as my babies I still miss those first few days with them. The joy of them being here strong, healthy, and each with very unique personalities. Below is a picture of the kids this morning after breakfast.

I am glad you got to get away for a few days to California. It looks like a lot of fun. I can't wait to see the show.
