11 Weeks Old

Reid is starting to coo now, and they both show me their big smiles when I pick them up in the morning or after naps. Eva still has the full on big grin and Reid's is a bit more of a crooked, Elvis smile. Sometimes I even get a laugh!

Today was photo shoot day. Their "Aunt" Katie reminded me I better put them in their personalized onesies before you know who grows out of his. So, we had fun:



After that we decided, what the heck, let's do some more fun outfits:



Then, we had to do some naked baby pictures between wardrobe changes. These are my favorite:

10 Weeks Old Today

We had our 2 month pediatrician appointment on Monday. Eva weighed in at 9 lbs. 14 oz. 20 inches long and Reid was 13 lbs. 4 oz. 23 inches long. Eva is in the 25th percentile and Reid is in the 90th percentile, and this is for if they had been born on time at 40 weeks! The doctor expects chunky boy to be off the charts at the 4 month appointment in March. We'll see! Ross may have his linebacker after all...

Here we are with a recent visit by our friend Shelby who just happens to have the same outfit as Eva. Shelby was born 2 months before the twins (September 14) and Reid is almost the same size as her:


We didn't realize that the UM outfits were not cut the same. Eva's is almost tight on her and Reid's is still way too long, so we thought we better go ahead and take a picture while they still fit in them!:


They are both getting really good at tummy time. Look how good they can hold their heads up! Reid's even starting to try and roll over:



And last but not least, who can resist another side by side photo. Look at Eva's smile. She's even laughing some now. His smiles are still more spread out, but they are devilish when you see them!:

8 Weeks Old... tomorrow

So, tomorrow is officially their 8 week birthday, but I have to get online and post pictures when I can, so here they are! Since Ross' window to take his insurance license exam opened, he has been studying like crazy at the library. This means I am officially the full time solo baby caretaker all day. Let's just say I'm glad I at least had help the first 8 weeks! The babies are adjusting to 'waiting their turn' and I'm adjusting to being able to do absolutely nothing all day until someone comes over :o) Very interesting!

Here's Eva meeting her cousin Will. I think Will was more interested in eating her hand!:


And here's Reid meeting his cousin Will. They will be good buddies very soon:


Here we are getting ready to watch Michigan kick Florida's butt. They can't fit into their UM outfits yet, so this will have to do:


After 8 weeks, we are still not tired of each other:


And last but not least, Eva's favorite spot to sleep. Her Daddy's chest:


We hope everyone has a wonderful 2008! Happy belated New Year!
