I had no idea...

I didn't know a year ago how different my life would be...  Crazy and busy and terrific.  I didn't know how much I'd love these two little precious gifts entrusted to us.  I didn't know how full my heart could be.  How a simple smile, sticky hands reaching to offer a bite, belly laughs, and open-mouth kisses could bring such joy.  I dreamt of you and prayed for you, but never, ever could I have imagined how truly wonderful you would be.  Thanks be to God, for His works are wonderful!  Happy 1st birthday, Griffin and Claire.  We are so thankful that you are a part of this world...

Come on springtime!!!!

The babies are 4 months old on Thursday... my goodness time flies!  They are both so much fun!  We are anxiously awaiting their first "roll" from back to front.  Claire will "roll" from her belly to her back and both babies will get turned on their sides, so close to rolling over that we hold our breath each time thinking it will happen.  They are holding their heads much more steady and both enjoy playing in their Bumbo seats.  Claire has had a few nights recently where she has slept the entire night through!  Now if we could just get Griffin on board, we'd be set!  We are really looking forward to spring and loved the little taste of the warm weather that we had a while ago.... took advantage of the beautiful sunshine and took our first stroller ride around the neighborhood!  Let's hope it gets warm again here soon!  XOXO

Well, it only took me 3 months...

Whew!  Does anyone know where the last three months have gone??!!  Our beautiful twins arrived on November 18, and life has been a whirlwind ever since!  I knew we'd be busy, but seriously?!  Claire and Griffin have filled our lives with so much love and joy.  What did we ever do without them?  They are growing so quickly and are really starting to turn into little people.  The smiles happen frequently and they are both starting to "talk" and giggle.  I can't think of anything better than seeing their dreamy faces everyday.  I go back to work next week, so we will have a new routine to establish.  Anyway, I will post some pictures from the past several weeks and vow to try to update the blog more frequently.  XOXO
