SIX weeks!!

Still in love with these 2! It's still really hard, but every day is getting better!! I couldn't imagine only having one (even though some days it sounds pretty nice...)! They really are getting more fun! They smile, they coo, they sleep better (woohoo), and they are just the cutest things ever! I love spending my days with them!! I LOVE this stage!!


I love seeing their personalities come out! They are totally different!!

HA HA he was mad at me for taking his pic!! I could just eat him up!

Gavin loves tummy time!! He knows he can lift his head now and has to check everything out!

Uncle Derek comes over a lot! The boys are good sports when he is around ha ha! He put Beau on a thrown! dork!


Gavin needs a hair cut already! Ty won't let me cut it cause he wants our boys to have shaggy long hair! We are still lovin' his crazy hair!!

YUM!!

After they eat, before their naps they are so happy!! It's my favorite time of day!!


BEAU!

GAVIN!!

My cousin had twin girls (Lucy and Emmy) 3 months before us and last weekend was their first time meeting!! We think they like eachother! It's going to get crazy at Grandma Greats next year with these 4 running around! Aren't their girls cute!! They look identical! We were so excited to take pics of these 4!!

Grandma Great with her twins!! Isn't she beautiful!!




I got lucky to be their mom!! I love them soooo much and could not imagine my life without them.... even when things get really crazy and hard!!

FIVE weeks!!

These 2 are getting more and more fun every week! Life is finally starting to feel normal again! I LOVE being able to spend all day everyday with these 2 little guys. I won't lie though, its HARD and a lot of work!! My mom still comes over everyday (almost) to help and I would not be able to do it without her during the day! She loves to babysit so Ty and I are still able to go out lots! It's been so nice:)
The hardest is nights... We can't wait for the day they sleep through the night! For now we will take what we get:) We started doing formula right before they go to bed and we get a good 4-5 hour stretch.. It's AMAZING!!!

I don't think it gets cuter than these 2! I am so in love:)




We are trying out new binkis! They take them ok unless they are really upset! They look so cute with them:)

Gavin smiled at us for the first time!! It was the CUTEST thing ever:) I was so glad Ty was home to see it! Isn't that the CUTEST face ever:)



Ty turned 27!! Old man:) He had presidents day off of work so we hung out as a family! It was pretty low key with the little guys, but we still had a blast and celebrated all week! We also got engaged on his b-day 5 years ago!! Its so fun remembering that day:) Happy Birthday to the best dad and hubby around!

Ty LOVES his boys and loves having boys! Beau isn't so sure of this idea!

ONE month!

I have had these pictures uploaded and have been working on this stupid post for 3 days now! Babies take ALL my time:) But I would not change it for anything.. Even losing sleep and being sick because of it!! At ONE month (really??) my boys are getting SO much more fun! I am LOVING this stage a lot better than the first month. I am not so scared of them, and I am slowing getting adjusted to my new life!:)

My baby boys at ONE month!! I am head over heels for these 2!!
Gavin needs a little more attention than Beau! When he is hungry you don't mess around.. FEED HIM, he hates being naked, getting bathed (likes being in the water all the way a little more than sponge baths), and getting his bum changed! Eats every 2-3 hours, and likes to be held! We always joke that when he is asleep for no one to touch him. But he is a good baby just needs more love:)
Beau is my angel child! He is so chill! Only cries when he is hungry or naked! The kid can eat! We think he is going to be bigger than Gavin! He would eat all day if we let him. He has been super congested and hates when we get things out of his nose! He is more awake, and at night he is the last one to fall asleep (Even between Ty and I.. crazy kid!) We are in love with these 2

Finally Gavin decides to be awake for our weekly photo shoots!


My brother Derek got back from his mission in Chile a few weeks ago!!


FINALLY he is back!! ;)

First family picture.. We added 3 while he was away!!

Derek brought all the boys jerseys back!

Ty and his boys.. Twinners!

We made these Chile shirts for our boys.. They looked so cute!

The first time Derek finally held the twins. I think it was love at first sight... On both ends:) He is such HUGE help! But told me today that he doesn't want twins haha!


He feeds the boys, burps them, carries them everywhere we go! (We hang out a lot these days) He loves them, it's so cute!!

Cutest baby boys EVER!! Beau loves picture time.. He always looks right at me:)

They love to cuddle in the mornings

Gavin just taking it easy in his lounger!

Happiest baby ever- I got lucky with him:) Always happy! (unless he is starving, or naked)


Gavin looks TINY next to Derek! Seriously I think these boys like him:)



At Dereks homecoming! Gavin did not want a picture, He was probably sleeping and I woke him up.. oops!

THREE weeks!

Seriously time is FLYING!! I love these 2 boys! They are getting more personality every week, its so fun watching them grow.. But slow down.. geez!! Beau is awake tons more than Gavin!:) I wanted to bring the boys home from the hospital in these outfits, but they drowned them! Ty made fun of me for thinking they would fit (they are from the premie section at the gap! but those are still bigger than most our little clothes!). Now they fit and I was kind of sad about it! But they do look dang cute in them:)

They LOVE being together and holding arms or hands.. Sometimes Beau thinks Gavin's hand is food.. Its really funny:)


and their first superbowl party! My kind of boys... sleeping through it haha! jk! We did have fun:) I did take lots more cute pics but all on my phone.. One day I will download that! They have a busy week coming up! They get to meet their uncle Derek:) He gets home from Chile and we can't wait!!

TWO weeks!!!

Really??!! Where is the time going?? They are growing way too quick and they already look SO different! Slow down little babies..:) We had a few adventures this week.. Drs appt, trip to Target and the mall (felt good to get out), lots of eating and sleeping! We are getting ready for my little brother to get home from his mission in ONE week, so we had to practice going out with them. They were angels! But they always are during the day... Nights are a different story:)


They sat like this for 20 min and once I moved them they started to cry!! So happy they like each other:)


FIRST doctors appt! They were not a fan!! I was so sad seeing them so sad!

Beau is now.. 5 lbs, 11 oz (this kid can eat!) and 18.5 in long!
(BW was 5 lbs 4 oz- left the hospital at 5 lbs 1 oz)


and Gavin is 5 lbs 15.5 oz (so basically they said he is 6 lbs- birthweight!), 18.25 in (he left the hospital at 5 lbs, 11 oz)
Both my boys have grown taller, and Beau gained a lot more weight! We think he might outgrow his older brother! Both the boys are super healthy and we are SO SO grateful for that!
