Ali snugglin with Grandma. This was her very favorite spot to nap (:
Avery bundled up and ready to go!
Avery kinda has Uncle Simon's haircut because she lost some of her hair but its really starting to make a comeback (:
Ali's has so much hair and it sticks straight up
Cuddle buddies
Owen checking on his sisters
Peekaboo!
Owen got blocks for Christmas and he absolutely loves them. All day long, "Mommy play blocks?"
Aves getting snuggles from Kenadee. Ken said she felt like she was wearing a diaper on her face (:
Em and Avery
Wow, ok I promise Ali gets held too but for some reason all the pics I usedare with Avery. This time she is getting loves from her cousin Brooklyn
Owen with his buddy Aiden. Tyler and Kaydee came to visit a few days after Christmas and it was so fun to see them!
Owen with his other buddy (and someday wife) Mia. Its not like Amber and I have plans for them or anything (: We love it when our friends are in town!
I think this is our first family picture all together.
I don't know why this turned sideways but this is the girls in their Christmas jammies!
Owen playing in the wreckage. He LOVES his McQueen jammies and it is not easy getting them off him in the mornings!
Look at that smile...I knew I hit the jackpot with this one
I just think this is funny.
Grandma with her little bear cubs
Christmas Eve dinner! I got to steal my parents and have them to myself for Christmas this year! My fam is pretty sure I planned the twins just for this reason (:
Owen making it hard for his daddy to sleep
Both my girls in the bouncer!
I had to put this on here because even though life is so crazy right now, times like this make it so worth it. Seriously, how many people get to do this.
Thanks so much Mom and Dad for everything!
My life is pretty much feeding babies, changing bums (3 of them!), and playing blocks. Getting a shower in can be tricky and sometimes I feel like I'm spread so thin. But when I get a smile or a sweet little coo or when Owen asks me if I went potty and then says, "Good job mommy, good job!" it makes all the tough moments seem not so tough. Love my little fam.

ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable family. Your girls are absolutely beautiful. I am so glad that your mom was able to stay so long and help out. That had to be wonderful. I hope you are doing well. My sister has twins also and I have to say I admire twin moms. You guys are pretty amazing. Owen is a cutie. Thanks for sharing pictures I loved it.

ReplyDeleteYour family is so adorable Gretch! We miss you guys so much. We wish we were closer. We love you guys. Keep up the good work, you are my hero! Oh.... Tell Owen he better watch out, because I heard that Mia actually likes the younger guys!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe they are already seven weeks. It goes by so fast. I don't know how you do it girl. I am exhausted and I only have one kid. YOu are amazing. Super cute girls. I am jealous. I have always wanted twins. Wish you were closer so I could see them and snuggle them and they could be best buddies with Zoey.

ReplyDeleteYou get the Mom of the year award for sure! Kinz and I were looking at your cute pictures and trying to guess which twin was which before we read the caption, we didn't do so hot. Oh my, I bet they are so fun though. I bet it was so fun having your mom there too. She's such a trooper. I've been thinking about you a lot and hope you're doing good. Keep up the good work! :)
ReplyDeleteOh Gretch- They are so beautiful. I bet things can get rough, but you have such a beautiful family!!! Oh what dolls the girls are and what a boy Owen is. Yeah for moms!!! Hope all is well!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable little family! So lucky to have such great parents! Owen seems like such a good little helper! Your girls are so sweet, but then again I am a little biased! I love girls! You are doing such a great job! Go mommy!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Kudos to you for keeping up, and kudos for you to going potty too. :) That was cute. Your little girls are adorable and Owen is getting big! Thanks for the update!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful little family! I keep asking Shelly how you are doing! What a great mom you are!
