How Big Are We?...

....Soooooo BIG!

(picture above) This is a FOOTED onesie! It was huge on us. Mommy and daddy even had to roll up our sleeves. We wore this outfit the day we came home from the hospital...only 2 days old and weighing barely over 4 pounds!!

This onesie fit us for an entire month after we came home from the hospital. We got down to only 3 1/2 pounds roughly. Auntie Rachel found these and bought as many as she could find because not many places sell 'double preemie' clothing. Thank you Walmart!
