We were a month old on Jan. 13! Pete is now 8 lbs. 8 oz (he gained 2 pounds in 2 weeks!) and Miss Avery is 7 lbs. 7 oz. They are both gaining really well. Both of the babies are really close to smiling. Avery makes you think she's about to do it, and then she closes her eyes and puffs her lips together. She's already a little diva!!
Miss Avery Grace - what a cutie!!
Pete in his bouncy seat! Thank God for the bouncy seats!!!
Now here is a close-up of Avery!
Mommy and Pete - it looks like he's about to smile!!
We're trying to start getting into a schedule and the babies are doing great. They are so good tempered and Pete and I have had so much fun taking pictures of them! I'm also having alot of fun dressing them up!! Avery and Pete in their TOO BIG shoes . . . but so adorable! Thank you Aunt Ashley!! This play mat is fantastic (thank you Emily!) and the babies love it. They are starting to reach for the toys and hold their heads up. Both have lifted their heads and turned them the opposite direction!
Avery and Pete were so happy! They were almost 3 weeks old in this picture. Mommy and Daddy had so much fun playing with them and trying to take their picture. We couldn't get over how much bigger Lil Pete looks than Avery! Even though she is the "older" one - you never would guess it!
Well, our long wait is over! We finally are able to meet our precious babies that we have been waiting so long for. I am so glad that we waited to find out if they were boys or girls until we delivered. It was amazing when we heard our doctor say those words "It's a girl . . . It's a boy!" (Even though there was a LONG time in between!)
Grandma and Nana finally getting to hold their babies after being at the hospital all day and all night!!
I've always known that I wanted to have kids and have one big happy family. Did I think that I was going to have 3 kids in the span of 15 months? Probably not - but I wouldn't have it any other way! My husband, Pete, and I are living, laughing, and loving our lives right now with our little babies: Avery,3, Pete, 3, and Hailey, 2. This blog is my journal for them and ME to chronicle this crazy, ever-changing life.
