Buddies

Well time is still moving as quickly as the boys. Jamie is preparing to start her new posistion with the school district and the boys are preparing for fun with the babysitter. Bryce and Owen are growing so fast. They are now eating baby food, starting to sit, rolling everywhere, and making their first attempts to crawl. They have really started to notice each other and as you see in the video they must think each other is funny looking. Little do they know they look alike. They both now have their favorite toys, Owen loves the baby wipes and Bryce loves the desitin. Had I known this we could have saved alot of money on toys. I have never felt as much joy as when I come home from work and the boys get crazy excited to see me. It is by far the best feeling I have ever had. We will try to update the blog but with Jamie working it will probably be every two month instead of every month.

Already

Time flies by so quickly. Today Bryce and Owen are 6 months old. Joe and I have spent a lot of time lately looking back at pictures of the boys when they were born. We can't believe how much they have grown, changed, and learned in their short, quick little lives so far. Rolling, eating cereal and baby food, talking in their own language, playing, reading, singing, going to the zoo, swimming, and spending time with family and friends have all been enjoyed this summer.

At their 6 month appointment yesterday, Bryce weighed in at 12 lbs 11 oz, and Owen topped the scale at 14 lbs 9 oz. In six months they both have nearly quadrupled their birth weight!

5 months ago...

Was January 18th.

Two beautiful baby boys were born weighing only 2 and 3 pounds.

Two proud parents unsure of how well their babies would progress.

We could never have imagined the joy that Bryce and Owen would bring to our lives today.

It is amazing (as we always say) that these boys have come so far in their short little lives. They are healthy, strong, and growing everyday. I have been enjoying my time off this summer tremendously. I love to play with the boys and watch them discover new things. Both of them are now eating cereal and loving it. They both decided to roll from their bellies to their backs this week, so tummy time is a little more difficult since they have discovered this new trick. They love books, music, and stroller rides.

I am looking forward to the next couple of months that I have off to watch them discover many new things. They are truly amazing and we can not imagine our lives without them. Everyone always assumes that life must be so difficult and challenging with twins. Honestly, we can say that it is extremely enjoyable 99% of the time. Having twins is a very overwhelming thought, but the reality is that life has not been as difficult as we ever imagined it to be.

Mommy and Daddy's little superheros.

Wanting all the cute girls to look at us.... in about 18 years :)

Messy, messy cereal faces:) (Owen/ Bryce) The date on the photos is obviously incorrect. Oops.
