Growing and Growing

THE ABOVE PICS ARE I ORDER OF MOST RECENT TO OLDER PHOTOS

I look at the blog and realize that it's been WAAAYYY too long since last time I posted anything! Life with these two precious babies keeps me on my toes (or feet for that matter). What does a break look like? A quick cup of coffee in between washing bottles, changing diapers, changing 'drooly' clothing, entertaining Hannah and Eli, preparing dinner, cleaning, washing clothes, occational trips to Wal-mart, and the list goes on. With every week that passes the Hannah and Eli's personalities continue to emerge with more consistency and strength. Eli is our spunky out-going, loves people, hates to be alone baby. He loves attention and almost never passes up an opportunity to smile when someone gives him a little one-on-one time. He loves to interact and 'talk.' Hannah is our quiet and reserved one. Though quiet, she still likes to stick out her tongue and make noise at the same time, she is discovering her little voice! She is also a great sleeper! She takes multipule naps throughout the day, much to my delight! She is so observant, taking in all her surroundings. She seems to process images better and enjoys watching the Food network with mommy! She is my little sweetie.

They are now four and a half months old. Eli weighs in at 13lbs 6.5 oz. Hannah is 11lbs 1.5oz. Eli is 23.5 inches long and Hannah is 23 inches. They are both healthy and growing, which I am so thankful for, espeically as I recall only a few short months ago when getting them to gain weight was such a battle! Now Eli is eating rice cereal at night and seems to like it! OH how they change!

Being the mother of Eli and Hannah is such a joy and an honor. They are precious and I love them dearly. They definitely require lots of attention and demand nearly all of my day, but it's entirely worth it.

The kids love people so if you get the itch, come and visit us!
