Handy Dandy Standy and Tummy Time

Piper's newest favorite past time is something we like to call "handy dandy standy time." Just recently did both of our little bundles start to enjoy themselves throughout some part of the day. That has been a nice change over the last week or so. Piper lights up when she is standing, she is such a big girl now!


Maxwell, on the other hand, is a little too beefy for standing. We have tried, but he's more of a couch potato. He likes his tummy time and because of this, is developing quite a strong neck! He's our beefcake for sure.


This video is cute as it has both of them with their daddy doing what they love best!

Two Month Well Baby Check

Maxwell and Piper had their two month well baby check last week. Though they were actually nine weeks the day of the appointment. Maxwell is a whopping 13 lbs 10 oz and is in the 97th percentile for weight and the 75th for height!! We call him "Meatball" at times. He's so funny. Piper is still our teeny girl. She was only 10 lbs 8 oz and is in the 25th percentile for weight, and only the 7th percentile for height! She's our little Miss Priss.

We Have Smiling Babies!!!!!

The babies are definitely getting bigger. Maxwell has quite the belly as you can see in the pictures below. They are 8 weeks now which seems so crazy to me. Even with the lack of sleep, time is really flying by so fast! The babies both have started smiling in the last couple of weeks which makes me so happy! I've included a few pictures of them smiling below......

Some of Our Favorite Pics

Here are a few more pictures we got of the twins big photoshoot.

Piggy Update

I've had people ask me how Piggy is doing with all the excitement around here with the new babies so I thought I'd do a little post about it. She is doing great with them. She really ignores them for the most part except for the occasional sniff of the diaper or the face. She still gets attention from Ian and I. She still sleeps with us every night and is our baby, after all, she's been our baby now for almost 6 years. She loves getting in one of the bouncers and tries to get comfortable. Silly Piggy.....

Aunties Came to Town...

My sister, Kristy, came to visit this weekend from Nevada. Ian's sister, Jennie, also came for a few nights. We had so much fun. It was so nice to see my sister again and to get some much needed help with the babies. Both Kristy and Jennie were great help! Thanks girls. My sister took the whole night shift one night for me and she split the other night with Jennie. It was fabulous to get a couple of nights in a row to rest. I wish my sister lived a little closer. I can't wait until she comes back. We took some cute pictures from the weekend as well and put them in a little slide show.

The Twins are Meeting the Cousins

My cousin John, his wife Bria, and their two kids Josh and Hannah, came by to visit the twins. We had a good time. It's always fun introducing the twins to their family. Hannah and Josh are really cute with them. It's fun to see. Bria and the kids were a big help last week. They came over to watch the babies for me so that I could get out of the house to get some fresh air and a little time to myself. It was so nice. I went to Starbucks, got my car washed, and did a little shopping! It was great! Can't wait to do it again already. Thanks Bria, Hannah, and Josh!!!!
