Two Months

Yesterday we took the boys in for their two month appointment, which we were almost late to because we had two different women stop us in the parking lot to talk to us. I swear that with twins everyone feels like they can just stop us to talk, asking us if they are twins, if they are identical, tell us of someone they know that has twins or just make any kind of comment they feel like. It is really annoying to have to explain yourself to a complete stranger. Anyway, the boys are growing well. Easton was 10 pounds, 1 ounce and Mason was 9 pounds, 5 ounces and both boys were almost 22 inches. They also had to get three shots. When we got home we told Hailey to be really careful with the boys so that she wouldn't lean on their legs when she gives them kisses. A couple minutes later she started crying and when we asked her what was wrong she said she was crying cause the boys had to get shots. It was really sweet, so we told her that they had bandaids and tylenol to make them feel better. She loves her brothers so much!

This is Hailey holding Mason. She claims that both boys are her favorite, but she really does favor Mason right now.


The boys love to take baths. It completely relaxes them, so it would be great if I could bath them every night but things are so crazy that they get baths whenever I have an extra minute.


Like I said, things are a little busy and crazy right now. These are a few pictures of us trying to sneak in a little more sleep. These boys love to cuddle and will knock you out faster than any sleeping pill. My doctor told me that by four months they should be sleeping through the night (one can only hope). I don't know if it is the lack of sleep or if the twins took every ounce of my memory but I can't remember anything these days and sometimes I feel like I am losing my mind. So, I hope everyone will forgive us if we seem a little distant. I swear just making a phone call sometimes seems to take me days to get around to. Hopefully, things will start feeling a little more normal as the boys get on a schedule.
