I was supposed to go back to work at the beginning of July, but circumstances changed and I am now scheduled to go back at the beginning of August. Good thing because I'm still trying to get life back on track.
Let's see, we really haven't been up to much excitement outside of dirty diapers and cleaning bottles, so there hasn't been much to post in the past few months anyway! With two newborns and temperatures above 100 degrees, we have been basically help captive in our home. I do try to get out of the house daily but how exciting can the grocery store be for the millionth time, seriously?
Boring for everyone else, but important for my own records, here are some stats on the babies' development:
The babies are now 10 weeks old! I just began to put away clothes they've outgrown already. It's so sad! Ollie started smiling about two weeks ago. He had his first official giggle at his Daddy on July 8th (at 9 weeks). Miley seems to be a few weeks behind him on everything. She just really started smiling last week. She's half giggled... does that count? We like to think it's because Ollie took up all the room in the womb. He's just such a boy! Loud & obnoxious! She's so much more petite, dainty and sweet. At their 8 week Dr. appt, Ollie's stats were: Weight 10# 12 oz (25%); Height 22 3/4" (40%); Head 15 1/2" (35%). Miley's stats: Weight 9# 9 oz (20%); Height 21 1/2" (15%); Head 14 1/2" (8%).
This week they finally started sleeping a little longer stretches. Right now they go down at about 8 pm and wake at around 1 am. After an hour of feeding, they go back down until 4/5 am-ish. It's not great, but better than it was! Here's to hoping for a whole night's sleep soon!
Below are just the random pics we have from the past two months. I haven't had the energy to pull the camera out much sadly :( I hope to get better in that department. Poor second kiddos... at this rate they will not have nearly the photos Q had!
Our Dr. gave us matching onesies for the babies and he loves it when patients send him pics of the babies in the outfit(s) :) Thanks Dr. Falk!

I just wanted to remember all the wrinkles!

Nope, nothing is going on here. Nothing to see. Keep walking. Well, it could just be a meeting about what to do about the latest round of competition... or how to get that steak off the counter.
