6 Months!

Wow! The time has flown. We are enjoying every bit of parenthood.  Every day is an exciting new day with different sounds, expressions, and joys.  The girls had their 6 month check up today.  Davin weighed in at 19.2 pounds and 26 inches long. 90th percentile for height and weight.  Emma weighed 17.10 and 25 1/2 inches long and in the 65th percentile.  They are eating like champs, with their main source of nutrition still being formula.  They wake up have a bottle, later in the morning have cereal with fruit, have a bottle every 3.5-4 hours, then eat dinner around 6-6:30.  Usually dinner consists of 2 ounces of a fruit and 2 of a vegetable.  Then we feed them a 7 ounce bottle ( big bottle ) right before bed.  They are on the exact same schedule and have always been, it makes it so much easier.  We have tried bananas, apples, pears, sweet potatoes, peas, squash and carrots.  Im guessing they don't have any food allergies because they wolfed down all of it.  We are big girls now. We sit up on our own, steal each others toys, and are even starting to to get down on the floor and assuming the crawling position. Weird.  They have changed so much over the past month even.

We love rice cereal.

Thank you Miranda!!!

4 months!

Well.....our sweet little girls are four months old. They are changing so much every. Single. Day. They're starting to notice each other more and more everyday too! It's so cute to watch them look over at each other and get the biggest smile or grin on their faces. We've all been sick of course and day care is going really well. Miss Brittany and Anna take excellent care of our sweeties and we are so thankful to have them every day. We had our four month check up and shots yesterday.. Boooooo. Davin however has blown her sister out of the water as far as weight goes. You would never think she was the one in the nicu. She weighs 15.2 pounds and is 23.5 inches long. Emma weighed in at 14.1 and 24 inches long. We started rice cereal this week. Emma has the spoon thing down, davin not so much. These babies are amazing. Each day I'm so thankful and blessed to have them in my life. Can't wait to watch them grow... Well.. Maybe I can, not so fast though.

3 Months

Our sweet little ladies turned 3 months old this week. Man, they are changing so much, so fast. We had to take them in the the doctor earlier this month because they were having trouble with spit up issues, turns out, it's reflux. She put them on Zantac and they're good to go. While we were there they did weigh them. Emma weighed in at 12.6 and Davin weighed in at 12.5. She said they were growing great! We have gotten into a true routine of bath time,bottle time, book time and bed. We noticed that the nights we gave them a bath they slept 7 to 8 hours. So we made it a night time thing and it stuck and they do fantastic with it.

I love these girls. Their smiles are so contagious. They are in constant motion and occasionally they look up at me and I get a little watery in the eye area. They know how to really get into your emotions:) I am loving every minute of being a momma. Tonight we heard Emma really chuckle for the first time and I'm so glad nana got to hear it as we were face timing. We FaceTime my mom and dad every day when we get in from daycare and the girls really like it;)

Here are a few of my favorite pictures over the past few months.

happy new year!
