The Two Month Mark!

Before the babies were born I heard that the first two months with twins was the hardest. Well, we made it! We've had so much help though I don't think that has been the case for us. Today we had the babies' two month doctor appointment. Brandon was running a little late so I had to take the babies in by myself and then he met us there. I felt like super woman -carrying two car seats! Everyone was nice, opening doors for me etc., all while looking at me like "glad it's you and not me!" The babies are doing great...Aiden weighed 8-13 and Avery 9-1. They're actually on the charts now! They got immunizations too, and haven't been too fussy...YET. They have started smiling somewhat consistently lately but we haven't caught them with the camera yet...I'll keep trying. Those first baby smiles are precious. Brandon and I find ourselves doing anything (including making complete fools of ourselves) to make them smile.

We've had a fun couple of days. My parents brought August and Addison home on Saturday and stayed for the day to visit. (We banished the girls to Utah for the week when we had a chicken pox scare with August. We're pretty sure she had a mild case of them and didn't want the babies to get them.) Brandon's Aunt Debi and Uncle Donnie came and saw the babies on Saturday too with Brandon's parents. We had a fun visit.

Brandon's sister Penny and our nephew Tanner came and visited on Sunday and Monday. Tanner did crafts with the girls on Monday and Penny taught me how to make hair bows. (Thanks Pen, it's so much fun...and thanks for leaving the supplies for me to use! Also, you've made the girls favorite pastime of doing daddy's hair so much more enjoyable! Refer to photos!) The girls adored Tanner. He was a good sport and played whatever they wanted.
