THE BOYS!

THE BOYS' BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT

THE TEN POINT!

This past weekend, Chris killed a 10 point. Him and Brady had seen this deer on the deer camera, so both boys were very eager to kill this one. Chris went hunting Saturday afternoon and sat in the stand all afternoon. At 5:30, this big buck came out and Chris got the perfect shot. Of course, we had to call Brady to tell him and he wasn't too happy, but he got to take his picture with the deer and that made him happy.

PLAYDAY!

This past weekend we were in Marion visiting the Grandmothers. So while we were at my moms, I took a few pics of the boys together in their new PJs. I love these PJs, the cars on them are so cute. In this pic Kaden is on the left and Quinn is on the right.

Then this past Friday while the boys and I were at home with Daddy we took some pics of the boys on their little play mat. Instead of looking at the toys hanging, the boys normally just like to watch the TV.

Quinn watching the TV instead of his little toys.

Kaden actually took time away from the TV to look at his Mommy.

SKILLED AT 7 WEEKS

It is amazing how your children can change so much in only a few weeks. Yesterday and today Chris and I were able to capture some pics of the boys showing off their skills. At 7 weeks of age our boys are already so talented and are changing so much.

This evening when I got home from a day out by myself (Chris kept the boys), I was getting ready to feed Kaden and he decided to do this cute little pose for Mama. He was laying there like a little angel so Chris captured that sweet moment for me.

Today while I was out Chris captured this pic of Quinn. Apparently Quinn is stronger than we thought. He held his bottle all by himself. I'm sure it was for only a few seconds, but still very exciting. Oh and I know this pic looks funny because the bottle looks like it is as big as his head, but it really isn't.

Yesterday I let the boys have a few minutes on their tummies. They did better than I thought they would, although Quinn kept trying to eat the floor. Needless to say it was time for his bottle.

I did get this shot though of Quinn trying to lift his head a little bit. He is really stronger than this, but he was more worried about missing his bottle. He's my little porker!

Kaden on the other hand was ready to go. He loves lifting his head up!

Then for the "whistle" shot. This is Kaden trying to whistle for me. Quinn does it too, but I haven't been able to capture it yet. Aren't they just so cute??? Oh how I love my boys!

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF QUINN AND KADEN

So, Daddy has been out of town all week, so it's just been me and the boys. They've been really good, so since it was just us I decided to change up my routine a little and get some pics of them. I'm so busy these days I forget to take pics. So yesterday we captured a few.

Quinn getting ready for his nap in his swing. The boys are really beginning to enjoy their swings.

Kaden in his swing. He really loves his swing!

This is Quinn during his bottle. He always is such a messy eater and the cereal doesn't make it any better! He really loves the cereal in his bottle. It fills them up quick.

This is Kaden patiently waiting for his bottle while I burp Quinn. He cannot stand it when you take his bottle away from him.

And then here are the boys together while I was trying to get their bottles ready. Quinn was enjoying stretching, but Kaden was rather upset with me.

WEIGHT UPDATE

Today, the Home Health nurse came to give the boys their second RSV shot and before she could give them to them she had to weigh them. AND.......................Quinn weighed 6 pounds and 3 ounces and Kaden weighed 6 pounds even. The boys are getting so big!!! They have now graduated to Newborn Clothes. So we are moving on up!!! This Sunday will be my due date. It's still hard to believe that the boys are already here.

Also, today Chris and I took the boys to Fairytale Fotography to have their 6 week pictures taken. The boys did so good and even Daddy did good too. Daddy toughened up and took "the daddy" pics with his two boys. They are going to be so cute and I can't wait to see them. To all you close friends and family, I will be sure to send you the link when I get the proofs back.

THE BEGINNING OF THEIR 2ND MONTH

The boys are now in their 2nd month of life. I can't believe they are already a month old. All of you were SO right. Time does fly!!! This week has been the first week that I have been by myself with them and so far everything has gone well. Chris and I really are lucky parents because these two boys are really good babies. For the most part they just eat and sleep.

Due to the boys having reflux they are now sleeping in their carseats. So we put the pack-n-play at the end of our bed and have the carseats sitting in the pack-n-play so they aren't on the floor. They do well sleeping there and their spit up has gotten a little better for the most part. This pic is during their nap after their 10am feeding. Kaden (left) and Quinn (right)
This is Kaden during his 10am feeding today. As you can see he wanted to nap during his bottle. I had to change their clothes anyway, so I decided they could eat in just their diapers and bibs.

Here is Quinn in a daze after he got finished eating. I guess you can say he is full.

Trying to feed two at a time can be difficult at times. Please excuse the spit up coming out of Kaden's mouth. I'm sure you can imagine how hard it is to get that perfect pic.

Last night the boys took turns sitting in the boppy while I changed their diapers and freshened them up. Here is Quinn absolutely loving it! HA!

And here is Kaden chillin in the Boppy.
