6 week appointment

The babies went for their 6 week appointment on August 13th. Everett weighed 8lbs 4oz and was 20 1/2 inches, Emmett weighed 8lbs 6oz (he has surpassed Everett) and was 19 inches and Emerson weighed 7lbs 1oz and was 20 inches. They are officially newborn size now a day before their "due date". They continue to do well and now sometimes have a 4 hour stretch of sleep. The days are quite busy around here changing diapers, feeding babies, doing laundry and doing dishes. We have a hard time getting much else done around here and need to start finding volunteers to come help with things like yard work and cleaning. If anyone would like to volunteer their time to help us out it would be greatly appreciated. We could also use some frozen meals if anyone loves to cook!!!

I've been having a hard time keeping up with the babies milk supply and have now had to start supplementing with formula. All three are now eating around 4 oz and it is almost impossible for me to have the time to build up my supply to keep up. It's really hard for me to have to supplement the babies, but they have to eat and I have to keep some sort of sanity. So if anyone has Enfamil coupons or samples they would be greatly appreciated.
