June 2011

A friend recently asked me if I was tired and I said of course! I was prepared for complete chaos so I am happy to report it's not complete just minor chaos.  My house is a disaster, but I manage to cook dinner, feed the boys, cloth them and myself every day so I feel like I'm doing pretty good. 

A big Thank You to all the family that came to visit and to help with the babies.  Thanks to all the co-workers and friends with your offering of gifts, meals, and help watching the babies to ease us into this new adventure with TWINS.

I apologize in advance I went a little crazy on the pictures with this post. 

Grandparents here for a visit

We like to coordinate

Love me some baby feet

First fun trip out of the house. If you are wondering yes it was cold, and yes this was June.

Our first time out was a quick walk at the park next to Warren's work.

Our newborn clothes are still pretty big

Drayce will try to eat anything in his path even if it's his brother

Who doesn't love peaceful sleeping babies

Awesome candid of Grandpa entertaining his grandsons.

First ferry ride

Chance trying to avoid tummy time

Grandma's pretty comfy

Drayce is a tummy time champ

Chance says, "don't bother me people"

Fun weekend with the grandparents

Goofy family photo

I'm getting good at picking up both boys on my own

stay tuned we're growing fast we have more pictures to share

Getting transferred, going home, and first bath.....

After two weeks at the Seattle hospital Drayce and Chance were doing so good they were transferred to a hospital closer to home.  We were excited to have them one step closer to coming home and happy to not drive all the way to Seattle to see them. The above picture was taken as they were getting prepped for their ride north. This was the first time the two boys were side by side since birth.

Chance with Dad after getting settled at the new hospital.



Before they could come home they had to pass their car seat test....they passed with flying colors.



Spending some time with brother

Can you tell us apart?

My first bath at home



All clean and rocking the fuzzy hair

Not liking my first bath so much

Thank goodness that torture is over....but I like being clean.
