We're here!

The last month has been TOUGH. I'm not sure if it was that dreaded "4 month wakeful", or the shots, or the colds, or the swaddle wars...or all of those things combined!...but we had a tough month!.

Luckily, I have good news to share:

1) Both boys are COMPLETELY swaddle free!!!! They now sleep comfortably in their sleep sacks!!! This is HUGE!

2) They are feeling better from their colds!

3) I started working again!. I'm home so I still get to see them...but I do miss hanging out with them all day. Today I missed a huge milestone...Lucas rolled from back to belly!!!. They are both masters at turning from belly to back (have been for a while since they dread tummy time!)...but neither had rolled the other way. So today, they do it...not while I'm there, but with the babysitter!. Oh well, I'll catch him again I'm sure :)

4) These guys are so much fun. I have never seen babies laugh as loud as they do, they are just hilarious!. They love hanging out with each other and are very much aware now of who's in the room. They do not like it when you leave the room either, so I have to hide from them if I need to run upstairs!.

I think that about sums it up as far as news!

Now we're on full on planning for their baptism in a couple of weeks...and excited because we have family coming to town!

Alex...you are such a fun little guy!!!!. You are so intense...you love to study people (as well as your hands). You absolutely love it when people talk to you...and you love to talk back. You have a hard time concentrating on eating if there is anything exciting going on (like daddy talking). You do great with naps and bedtime (mommy thanks you!!!).

Now you really enjoy tummy time and talk and laugh when you can see the world from a different perspective!. You love all the toys that squeak, they make you giggle!. You have become quite active and try to jump off the couch from your boppy when I' trying to feed you (not so good!)...I think you're just ready to get up and explore around!!

Lucas, you're as sweet as ever!. You have a new friend: Chepe!. You love it when he's near and you can touch his furry coat!. You also love to touch your brother, your mommy and your daddy!. If there is a face close to you, you are going to give it some lovin'!.

You don't like tummy time much, so you roll very quickly!!. you love to grab things in your hands (like your ball)...and when you love to suck on your hands!!!

You still love hanging out with your brother. Every morning I put you in his crib and you smile because you know where you're going!. It's the cutest thing :)
