2 month Dr visit
We had our 2 month check up today. Our appt was at 9 am and we got there on time, actually we were early by 5 mins, yay mom!!!! We got weighed and measured Preston weighs 11 lbs and is 21 in long and Lily weighs 9 lbs and is 20 3/4 in long. We got 3 shots today and it hurt like h%#&.
It was time for the babies to eat at 10 so I was feeding them when the nurse came in to do their shots. We let Preston go first since he is the brave boy. He did very well and only SCREAMED for a few mintues.
Lily on the other hand threw up when the nurse was giving her the oral rotovirus medicine. Thank god for a well stocked diaper bag with fresh clothes. Once we were all done we went o my old office to visit. We hadn't been there and they were dying to hold the babies. While we were there I changed Preston's diaper and he peed everywhere. Once again good thing for that stocked diaper bag. We went to lunch with everyone to Sweet Mesquite YUM!!! I sure miss those guys. We used to crack up at the silliest things. We are home now and the babies are sleeping very well in their carriers. I hate to move them I am afraid they will wake up.
Tonight we are going to walk with Tasha, Jenn and Kim. Maybe mommy can lose some of that baby weight.

Fun day
We had a very fun day with the family. Today was my niece Jordan's 2nd birthday party. We went to my sister's about 2. The whole family was their so the babies never got put down. They were a little fussy. I guess they are starting to get used to their routine and nap schedule that when it gets messed up they get fussy. Anyway. All the kids in the family had such a good time. Aunt Michelle rented a fun jump and the kids jumped for hours. I managed to not get one single pic. That's typical for me though. I complain about not having any recent pics then don't take any when all the kids are together. The babies had so much fun that it is now 9:20 and they have both eaten and are passed smooth out in their beds. If I have not said it before I will say it now. I love my family and love getting together. We have so many kids in the family now that it's so fun. It used to be just Ashley (13) and Micah (9) now we have Jakob (3), Jordan (2), Kate (1), the twins and another cousin on the way. Next Christmas will be so fun!!!
Take care and have a happy and healthy new year!!!

Preston's sad face
When Preston gets upset he makes the saddest face. Here he is making it while crying.
Our first trip to LA and baby update
LA was awesome. We got to visit with everyone and loved spending time with Aaron's family. It was time to come back home though. We got in yesterday. We stopped in Beaumont to eat and feed the babies. They do so well in the car. I hope it's always like that because there will be lots of trips to LA.
Last night after the babies 10 feeding they went to sleep and didn't wake up until 4:30!!! They must have been ready to get back in their bed. At 5 when when we put them to sleep they didn't wake up until 9:30am. It was nice I can only hope they do the same tonight.
We have been doing tummy time. I usually do it through out the day for a few minutes. Both babies enjoy it for about 5 mins until they start crying. Their heads are pretty strong though. Lily is about a week behind Preston also. He started following objects before she did and his head control is alot better than hers is.
Preston is eating 5 oz and Lily eats 3-4 oz every 3-4 hours. At night it's 4-5 hours. We are 100% formula now. I gave up breast feeding last week. It was so hard and I felt like I was nursing/pumping every hour. I haven't weighed them since before Christmas. I will weigh them before their bath tonight though. Lily is in newborn diapers and Preston in size 1. Both babies are in newborn clothes. They get so big so fast. I will be glad though when they start smiling, cooing and laughing consistently.
I hope everyone had a happy new year.
