Austin is now 8lbs and Lincoln is 6lbs 2oz.
Austin no longer fits into preemie clothes, and Lincoln is filling them out nicely - although he is getting too long for the sleepers. But don't they just look so old in their little outfits?
My mom came over yesterday to help with the gardening. It was such a nice day, we brought the boys out with us. I think they enjoyed the fresh air.
The boys are practically mummified when we wrap them.
Papa and his boys taking a nap. I love all my boys.
A friend from work knit these hats for them. They're growing out of them already! Here's a pic to document the indoctrination of football...
We had a family gathering on Sunday. Below is a 5 generation photo of my Great Grandma Doris, Grams, my Mom, me and the boys.
Here we added my brother, Kurt and is daughter Isabella
and son Donovan to the generational photo.
Grams' husband Wayne has been added to the generational photo.
Lincoln's ready to eat any time, and will start gnawing on just about anything!
The boys interacting.
They're now the size a full term baby would be, and I can't believe people have babies that big! I'm glad they're growing, but sad at the same time because I like them so small. I'm glad they'll still be 'newborn' size for a little while longer :)
They're eating well - every 3 hours during the day and 4 hours during the night. They're still asleep for the most of the day but are wakeful some mornings and mostly in the evenings. Austin's holding his head up more, although I wouldn't call it stable yet and Lincoln is still practicing.
People ask me how I'm doing, and I couldn't be better. They're so well behaved, eat and sleep so well that they make my job easy for me. We go out and run errands regularily and like to get out of the house.
Stay tuned for more adventures!
Shani & Miles, it is so great to see those cuties doing so well. Miles, what is it like being a Dad? Usually it is not two at a time but neat none the less. Glad you are getting out and about Shani. Glad you are enjoying them so much. You are right they do grow up really fast. Thanks for the update.
