Thought I'd do a little update on the twins....
Ayla and Cole continue to eat and sleep all day. At their appointment last Tuesday, Ayla weighed 6 lb 8 oz and Cole weighed 5 lb 3 oz, although Cole isn't even on the charts yet because he is so tiny. Ayla is definitely my eater and is bigger than little man by over a pound. Cole is just the tiniest little thing you ever did see, he is still so light compared to Ayla. They're both in newborn clothes still, although Cole fits into preemie stuff still also.
They also had their first photo shoot last Thursday, I was so worried they wouldn't behave for the photographer since they were past the two week mark of when they prefer to photograph newborns, but they both did great! It was a five hour photo shoot and the photographer was so patient and easy going with the twins. Today, is my original due date and they are already three weeks old! I remember when I found out we were having twins on St. Patty's day and my doctor told me my due date, I remember thinking-- October 24th?! That's soooooo far away! Now we're here! Time really does fly, I'm trying to soak in this newborn stage even though nights are rough. If these two littles are our last I want to enjoy this time now. Carson will already be six in January, SIX?!!! Where in the world did those six years go? Can I have them back?

"You're gonna miss this! Your gonna want this back, you're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast..." -Trace Adkins I agree, here I am with Camden at 6 months and I feel like I just had him a week or two ago. It's bittersweet that they grow up. Fun to see them grow and develop, but sad that their baby days are numbered. Ayla and Cole are so little and so cute. And Carson is sure growing up to be quite a handsome guy. We are hopeful to be able to have you guys visit in December (fingers crossed that the roads are good). Take lots and lots of pictures, video, journaling, and enjoying every day (even the hard ones) with them...
ReplyDeleteSOOOO sweet!
