"Don't make me go Cajun on you!"

Kendra aka Honey came to visit this weekend and she brought us each a little sussie. Bibs that say "Don't make me go Cajun on you" for the babies and a ring for me! They seem to love presents (they must get that from me!)

We put on our UL - Lafayette Ragin Cajuns attire to watch the New Orleans Bowl. We made nachos and had some beers and bottles of milk! Emily also had some apples ( as seen on her bib). It was a nail biter but they WON!

6 months

Today, Matthew and Emily went for their monthly RSV shots, flu shots and 6 month well check and Matthew has decided he will play a little game of catch up. He weighed 13 lbs 2.4 oz, 24.88 in and Emily weighs 13 lbs 4.8oz, 26 in. The pediatrician has given them the go ahead to make the trip to Louisiana so the Friday before Christmas we will be loading up and heading East!!

HO! HO! HO! Merry Christmas!

The day after Thanksgiving we headed over to Market Street to be one of the first to visit Santa (you know before the germs arrived)!!

More Rollin....

Matthew rolled over from tummy to back today during tummy time with Ann Marie (our neighbor and sitter) just before I was going to start my work. So we both cheered and he was startled and made a face as if he was saying "What's the big deal?"
Emily has also rolled from back to tummy once and continues to roll from tummy to back during tummy time.

5 month Update

5 months already and Matthew weighs 11 lbs 1.8 oz and Emily weighs 11 lbs 13.2 oz

We have been enjoying walks on the trail and can finally ride in our big stroller!

Bumbo chairs are fun too!!!

We are ready to go on our first trip to Houston... Mommy and Daddy went out to eat at Vietopia and we had our bottles. Emily cried nearly the whole way to Houston but Matthew did not make one single peep for the entire trip!

We love to play in our exersaucer but we have to share and use a blanket for some extra stuffing!

Rollin over

Emily rolled over for the first time today. She went from tummy to back and it startled her a bit then she laughed.

Halloween Costume Fun!

Growing....

This past Tuesday, the twins went for their synagis shots for RSV prevention. The shot is HUGE and I don't blame them for screaming and being cranky all afternoon. But more important is that they are getting BIG....
Matthew 9 lbs 6 oz
Emily 10 lbs 12 oz
Hard to imagine them at 2 lbs and 3 lbs. They have come a long way in 4 months!!

4 months old

The babies are 4 months old today. Where has the time gone?? We will be going to the doctor either Thursday or Friday for their RSV shots so we will have an update on their growth. I can tell you they have gotten bigger. I had to pack away the preemie and newborn clothes, they are both wearing 0-3 month clothes!
They both smile when you talk to them and follow a person as they walk around the room. Emily has started imitating sounds that we make (well specifically that David makes). She is showing signs of being a daddy's girl already. So I can only hope that Matthew is a momma's boy :)
I will give a update once we go to the doctor. We will be seeing the doctor quite a bit since RSV shots are given every 30 days throughout the RSV season which is from October until April, good thing we like our pediatrician!

Pumpkin Patch Kids

We had our first family holiday outing to the Halloween pumpkin patch wearing festive Halloween hats, bows and onesies. We got one HUGE pumpkin to carve the week of Halloween and 2 tiny ones for each of the twins.
