Kate on Christmas Day. She weighed 7 lbs 14 oz at the doctor on 12/23

All the family after the Christmas Eve service. Wright and Kate were angels through the service, but not happy to get back in their car seats!

Taylor loved holding her little cousins!

We had a wonderful first Christmas with Wright and Kate! My parents, grandparents and sister's family (they came Christmas Day) came to Wild Dunes for the week. Will and I packed up our house (it felt that way) and stayed at the beach with everyone for the week. It was insane getting all their stuff, but worth it...I couldn't turn down so many helping hands! The weather was great and we had beautiful marsh views. Wright and Kate loved all the extra attention and mommy loved getting some rest at night. My mom either split shifts with Will and I or did them herself...I never knew how wonderful 6-7 hours of uninterrupted sleep could be! Taylor (my 3 1/2 year old niece) had a great time with baby Wright and baby Cake (so cute when she says it..) they were her very own "real" baby dolls! The holiday season is so special, but this year was even better. It was so wonderful to be with family all week and for my children to spend time with their grandparents AND great grandparents!

Wright and Kate attended their first church service on Christmas Eve! It was very special for us and Will's parents came down to join us. Wright and Kate slept soundly through the entire service only getting upset when they were put back in their car seats!

Wright's reflux is getting better and they are both starting to eat close to 4 oz at each feeding. We are still feeding them every 3 hours (sometimes a bit less), but as they grow they should be able to stretch that out. I am hopeful that will be soon!

My babies are 7 weeks old today!

One Month Old

Kate

Wright

Kate and Wright are one month old today! I can't believe how quickly time is passing!

We went to the doctor today and are very pleased with their weight gain.

Wright weighs 6 lbs. 13 oz. and Kate weighs 6 lbs. 7 oz.

They both have a bit of acid reflux so we are trying different ways to feed them and will start medicine as well. They are both more alert and have started following the mobile with their eyes on the swing! Here are a few pictures of them on their one month birthday!

Tired of the photo shoot already and we were just getting started

I need to cherish these moments where they can be so close...and enjoy it!
