Christmas Pictures

I had Ashton and Addy's pictures taken this weekend. It was so fun to get them all dressed up and the pictures turned out great. Addy especially smiled a lot!!

Peas!!!

Since Ashton and Addy have been sick they have had a hard time drinking their bottles because their heads are so stuffed up so I thought I would try feeding them some baby food. So the other night I tried feeding them so peas. It was quite the experience! First I tried feedibg Ashton and lets just say he didn't not enjoy it at all. He started crying and spit them all over me!! It was nice. So then we switched and tried Addy. She was a little hesitant at first but then she decided she really liked it. She would get mad if I didn't give it to her fast enough! It was pretty funny. She loved it and Ashton hated it. I guess we'll have to keep working on him; although those peas didn't smell or look like they tasted very good:)

Two is Better Than One

I'm sure you've heard the saying that two is always better than one ex: two pairs of shoes is better than one, two pieces of pie etc. I believe that having two babies is better than one most of the time. It's twice the smiles, laughs and loves, which are great!! It is also twice the work, stress, headaches!! This past week both Ashton and Addy have been sick with colds and Ashton is getting a whole mouth full of teeth. Two have already broke through and he has at least two more coming in. Two teeth at a time must be better than one:) Needless to say they are both pretty miserable and the days and nights are pretty long without a lot of sleeping happening. Infant Tylenol and miracle Teething Tablets have been life savers! I can't believe my little baby is getting teeth. They are both getting so big. Anyway, usually I think that two babies are better than just one, I'm just grateful for naptime to catch up on sleep!

Well, other news Thanksgiving was great this year. It was the first time since we've been married that we just stayed in home for Thanksgiving and it was so nice to spend time with each of our families. We ate with the Hales' and then went and visited my family later in the day. Ashton and Addy weren't too impressed with Nan's dinner because all they got were bottles of icky formula.

They also just turned five months old on Monday. They are learning new things so quickly it's amazing. They are both so close to being able to sit up on their own, they are holding their own bottles (finally), Ashton has two teeth, they are fascinated by the Christmas tree, and they are both growing like weeds.
