Spending time in the Hammocks!

The boys love being outside and really enjoyed spending time in Aunt Wissa's and Uncle Boo's hammocks! Here are a few pictures of the fun!

Oh BTW, a friend let us borrow a baby scale and it says that the boys are both over ELEVEN pounds! I am going on Friday to get them weighed at the hospital for an accurate weight gain so I know if they have gained the right amount this week since I moved their schedule from every three hours to every three and a half hours. That cut their feedings from 6 to 5 a day. They seem to being doing real well with the new schedule - so it will be nice to make sure they have gained the right amount of weight.

Well, here are some pictures of the boys in their hammocks:

Our Mac is Back!!!

As you may remember, Jeremiah threw up all over our laptop the morning that we moved. They keyboard has not worked since then. Eric, who is a pro with macs, took it apart and cleaned everywhere and discovered that it was fried! So, we ordered a new keyboard from Apple and he installed it today and it is as good as new!!! It is so nice typing on a brand new keyboard :).

We are so pleased to have our mac back - we missed it!

On to baby news, I went and took the boys weighed today. We were concerned that Michael was a little behind, so I wanted to make sure they were both growing they way that they should be. Jeremiah now weighs 10lbs11oz and Michael is 10lbs8oz! We are so thrilled that they are doing so well. They have both gained EXACTLY two pounds in a month which is right where they should be! This is good news because if their weights were ok I was going to move them to a three and a half hour schedule (instead of feeding every 3 hours). That will take us down to 5 feedings a day - right now we are doing 6 and it will move our bedtime to 9 instead of 9:30. I am going back next week to get them weighed and if they are still right on target, then we will stick with it, if not, then we will go back to every 3 hours.

We'll see!

PS - I know it is Wednesday, but I didn't have a creative picture to show - maybe I will do a Wordless Thursday! Sorry!

Swimming

My brother and his wife are in town for the week and we have already had so much fun with them! We went swimming with the boys. Every time we take them they like it more each time. Yesterday, the spent most of their time in the pool with Grandma MiMi. Here are a few pictures:

The Boys Went Down To Georgia...

We took a trip to Valdosta to visit with Mike's family. We had a great time and the boys sure did get loved on! Nobody, other then his parents, had seen the boys yet, so it was great for them to see the boys.

The boys are growing like weeds! Michael went through a growth spurt over the week, so we are hoping that he is going to catch up to his brother soon. We are estimating that they are over ten pounds by now. We are going to take them to get weighed this week.

Here are a few pictures of our trip to Mike's parents house: Enjoy!!!
