I guess its been about 3 weeks since our last post. I told myself too ‘once the kids get here I’ll post more’, but at least I’ve been better and broke out the video camera to catch some of these moments with them.
problem with that is, with two kids, timewise its hard to keep up with everything. its past midnight now, and that seems about the time to get this done. everyone is fast asleep minus me, couldnt sleep. my schedule is all jacked up since being REALLY sick friday night. my sleep and eating is all outta whack. but anyways, back to my point.
Wait, did I have a point? I ramble toooooo much. ok, so, point is, kids are doing GREAT. they’re about 4 1/2 months now, and growing like mad. they’re both about 15# now, and healthy as can be. not even a sniffle yet outta them. if I could say there was 1 problem, they are fart MACHINES!
But in all seriousness, they’re great. We even saw today that Tyler has teeth starting to break through. his 2 front bottom teeth are starting to appear. Doesnt seem to be bothering him much just yet. Both kids have found out that they can make a *LOT* of noise now. Both are testing their lungs and screeching as loud as they can. They love to see it give us a raise, and we end up going ‘awwwwwww Hailey, Tyler, what are u doing?’ and then they give a huge smile.
The age they’re at right now is amazing. they can smile, grab their toys, give hugs (sorta), sit-up, rollover, bark… wait, scratch that, minus bark. They seem to recognize sights & sounds very well now, and react to them accordingly. Loud noises scare them, soothing voices make them smile, etc.
Other than that, all is the same with us. Just waiting for the weather to break so Hailey & Tyler can meet their new friends since two of our neighbors had kids in the past 3 months too. 1 boy and 1 girl so they’ll each have at least 1 new friend!
Jen and I are doing well too, just a handfull trying to keep up on looking after monkey 1 & 2. They wear us, and just think, they havent even started crawling yet, OUCH
