Here we come!

Daddy took the girls for a walk yesterday morning with these cute little sweaters his Aunt knit! Aren't they so cute! Obviously, I am a bit obsessed with taking pictures of the girls! I can't help it though

No Go

So...no trip to Florida for us. We decided it would be way to much to deal with logistically. So, we are going to tough it out...

We did receive an offer from Courtney and Jason to babysit on of the girls for a couple of weeks in December...so we are thinking about that! Aren't they the bomb???

And...My sister in law and brother in law (basically...officially Oct 09) got me a surprise massage today! It was freaking awesome!

Good day today, we will see how the night goes!

Awesome..

So proud of myself. I was able to get the girls to take a nap in their crib yesterday afternoon all by myself. Now, this is monumental. They NEVER let us do that, even when my mom is here helping. We usually spend the day holding them! I think I wore them out though =) I was taking care of them alone and they had to tolerate sharing, that didn't make them the happiest. So, we definitely had some crying time before the nap!

We are thinking about taking the girls to florida. Are we crazy, yes I think so. But, my parents are meeting Alli and Bryan and my niecephew (don't know if Alli is having a boy or a girls yet...it's killing me) at the beach and they feel bad for leaving us all alone. They also say they want to hang out, but I am not too sure =) We have to decide today, so I will keep you posted. It's so great to have them and that they even thought about letting us invade their vacation!

It's been a rough week. Lots of ups and downs. Keep hoping for more ups Please!!

Growing up!

The girls have been doing a lot of growing! They are now cooing and smiling back at us. It's so fun to see and I love having them talk to me! AND....They are starting to tolerate sitting in the swing! Not for a long time, but we are getting there. They still insist on being held most of the day, but hey, one step at a time. We went to visit my Nan this week...She is 92 and still doing pretty well. She loves the babies and always becomes the most popular resident when the girls are there. I usually try to hide them in her room. The other day we were stalked by some woman who wouldn't back off. She kept asking me to hold one of the girls and I would tell her "No, only family can hold them now because they are so little." Then she proceeded to tell me how healthy she was as she coughed into her hands. It was pretty awesome! So, in the picture is Great Nan and Nana!

Oh, and I called the doctor to confirm they are identical twins. I know, I think of more things to worry about. But, it just doesn't seem like they look the same. But, I received confirmation that they are identical twins (hopefully they really looked at the pathology report like I asked!).

Peace out.

For Reals..

So, I thought the other night was bad. Oh no, nothing has compared to last night. Rob and I both decided it was the worst night ever-ever. The girls were not happy with anything and once we thought we had them asleep, they were wide awake. Seriously, these girls are too smart for their own good. They know within two seconds when someone isn't holding them and they get ticked. So, we basically didn't get any sleep. I swear, I hope it gets better soon.

At least they are healthy and cute, right? Notice in second picture that Alex is holding Keegan's binky in!

Go Bears!

It's funny...It seems like just when it seems like the girls are doing better sleepwise and fussywise, we take another step back. Yesterday was horrendous (sp?). Thank goodness for Nana and Papa, they came over to let Mommy and Daddy sleep for a little bit. Both girls need to be held non-stop and they still don't like any of their toys. So cross your fingers that that will soon change.

A little shot out for slings...man, they have saved us! Rob is able to wear both of them at the same time, so I can pump or do other things around the house! It's been a blessing otherwise we would be in huge trouble! Thanks bunches for the gift Alli and to Courtney for letting us "borrow" hers...hehehe!

The girls are also enjoying the bears game in their new outfits!

We are three months old!

Here are my little pumpkins! They are getting so big. I have also attached a picture of my dad and me with the girls in the sling and another one of me doing the double decker old!
