10.19.09 ~ 4 months old!

the girls are 4 months old today! They are now sleeping in the same crib and love to snuggle with each other. We find them shoulder to shoulder in the morning and all happy as can be. Here are some cute pictures of them playing in the pack and play...it's getting harder to tell them apart, especially when they're wearing hats!

10.18.09 ~ happy girls

All the girls have officially rolled from their bellies to their backs at least once. Brelynn joined the rolling group on Wednesday this week but hasn't wanted to show off her talents again since then. They are so happy and smiley, especially in the mornings. They are sleeping amazingly well, often eating about 8:00 pm and then sleeping from 10:00 pm until 6:00 am! They wake up every 4 hours like clockwork during the day to eat and then either take a nap or play in the swing or bouncer while we try to get things done around the house. We're starting to get more sleep now and are feeling like the craziness may calm down a bit soon. At least we hope it will! I still need help during they daytime feedings because try as I might, they won't stagger their feedings. They all want to wake up and eat at the same time and get angry if I make them wait because I'm feeding someone else! On a good note, they can now eat a bottle in 20-30 minutes instead of taking an hour.

Brelynn, Avery, and Camille
We went to Jubilee Farms to visit our friend Farmer Ryan last weekend. Here's a picture of the girls in the pumpkins. They were getting sleepy but they were good sports with photo time. They're wearing their Halloween outfits, figured we'd better wear them as much as possible before they outgrow them.

10.4.09 Firsts

We have lots of firsts to report...all the girls started smiling and laughing last week which makes the 3:00 am feedings so much more enjoyable. It's very cute. We're trying to get pictures of the smiles, but so far just lots of funny faces. Avery decided to show off at the pediatrician appointment on Tuesday by rolling over for the first time! Then, not to be outdone Camille rolled over on Thursday. Brelynn needs to work on lifting her head a little more before she can roll over but it should be soon. They're all starting to coo and make fun noises, too. One of the greatest firsts of all...Brelynn and Avery slept through the night last night! They ate at 6:30 and were in bed by 8:30. They didn't wake up until 5:30 this morning for a total of 9 hours of sleep for both of them (and at the same time!). Of course Camille needed to eat, but she managed to sleep 6 hours until 2:30. I was able to sleep for about 5 hours, which doesn't sound like a lot, but for me is amazing! We had professional photos taken a few weeks ago by our dear friend Michelle(www.michellenewellphotography.com). Here's of my favorites of the family~
