We have been VERY busy around here so sorry I haven't gotten to blog! On Thanksgiving the babies met my family in Fort Worth. They LOVED meeting everyone but our trip was cut short by Bronculitis (sp?) The babies were pretty sick and gave it to mom and between the three of us had it for almost three weeks. Yuck! The babies had three visits to the pediatrician thanks to nervous mom :) Then two weekends ago, Brandon's family came in to meet the babies! They flew in Friday and we did LOTS of baby time, pictures and a yummy turkey dinner. Last weekend mom and dad got some away from baby time and got to attend my brother in law's graduation dinner party. We are so proud of him!

The babies are really doing great. We are at 11 pounds, 11 oz for Christian as of last Thursday and 14 pounds 3 oz for Brock. We have moved off our preemie formula onto good old regular baby formula and got to use our jogging stroller for the first time yesterday! Brock has been VERY smiley and is a morning baby for sure. He is all smiles and giggles in the morning and Christian is my night baby. He is all happy at about 6pm. Brock is still my more demanding child (he is on my lap while I type this) and Christian is still patient and extremely expressive in his face. We have been practicing rolling over this week and although mom has not seen them do it yet, I do think it is in our near future. Brock likes his jumper and Christian likes the swing. I think they are both going to be VERY active little boys.


We have moved up diaper sizes for Brock to size 2 and Christian is right behind him... I see a new size for him in the next week or two. We are starting to sleep pretty good and for the last two night have slept almost 8 hours! Very exciting times around here.

We had our four month apt recently and we were called NICU success stories! We are sooooo proud of our little men :) Brock was totally off the preemie chart and on the the "normal" four month chart and Christian was at the 95 percentile for preemie and expected to be off the preemie chart soon.


Here are just a couple of pics of the boys in the last few weeks... more to come! We had two photo shoots done in the last few weeks and LOVE the pictures!
