A Mothers Paycheck

These are the moments that make it all worthwhile.

Happy Valentines Day

For Valentines Day this year I thought it would be fun to have a little party! Audrey kept asking me when Valentines Day was, I knew I had to do something for her. We had a few friends over decorated cookies, made Valentine's Day tins, played some games, and had a few good laughs.

Cookies that Jaime made! They were as yummy as the look.

Emily working hard on her Valentine's Day can.

The start of Gavin's Masterpiece. Just wait it gets better.

When Gavin was done with his cookie I think it was safe to say he needed some more cookie to go with his sprinkles!

Hard at work!

Everett had the cutest shirt. It said "Cupid is my homeboy"

3 Months

This is a random blog. I have been meaning to post for awhile but there is just no time. Both boys have gotten to the smile stage which I love, they both eat way too much but are finally happy! We had a hard time finding a formula that works so Soy it is. Our house is starting to get on a schedule which is nice. The boys do like to tag team their mom however, one day Taylor is happy and Brody wants all the attention, the next it day Brody is perfectly content but Taylor wants to be held all day... Having twins is hard, fun, rewarding, makes me want to run away (just for a little while), and something that is like no other challenge I have gone through. Enjoy the random pictures!

Taylor is still pretty laid back though he definitely has a certain way he likes to be held.

This is how the boys wake up from their naps. Its about time there is some sort of paycheck around here! I am not a morning person but I can't wait for the boys to wake up happy.

This is Brody's belly button. He has a hernia. I had no idea that the belly button popping out was a sign but you can see the dip right above the belly button where the hole is. This should start to go away around 6 months.

Brody loves to take a bath. It mellows him out and he gets mad when I have to take him out.

So both boys have put on some weight... just a little. Brody weighed less than Taylor but he has passed up his brother by a good pound. I am pretty sure his head is bigger too. Both boys have cradle cap so they are losing all of their hair. Brody's hair is coming back in blonder than blond. Taylor looks like his going to stay dark so this should make it easier to tell them apart.

The princess of the house is doing great! She is a big help with her brothers. Audrey loves snow white and is in this dress just about every day.

Audrey did not want to be left out of the picture taking so she posed for me... so funny.

Can't you see the amount of trouble I am in with these two. Before long they will be running around the house with a partner in crime. Its a good thing I have Audrey on my side (or at least for now)

Both boys have really funny shaped ears. When they were born they looked like little elf ears. I was told they look funny because they were not done forming. They are not so pointy anymore but they definitely have their own unique shape.
