Fun updates for Kate and Wright

What a busy and wonderful few weeks we have had! Kate and Wright are doing great. They are both growing and developing so much each day. It is funny because it seems like when one of them does something we celebrate the other wants to do something new as well! Wright surprised us Tuesday night and rolled over for the first time! He was so proud of himself and loved all the attention he received. Kate looked thoughtful for a few minutes and then decided to pull on her pink elephant toy and start the music! She then loved the cheering and attention from mommy and daddy! I need to be better about adding videos to the blog and will try to put a few on.

Last Saturday Mrs. Dinkins hosted a sip and see in Sumter. It was so nice! Kate and Wright were on their best behavior and looked precious in their gowns. They turned on the charm for all that visited with us! I have attached a few pictures of them that day.

Look at Kate's precious little shoes

Love how they hold hands

We celebrated 4 months earlier this week! We really like their pediatrician, Dr. Graham, and he was very pleased with their development.

Wright is 13 lbs 8 oz and 24 inches long

Kate is 12 lbs 6 oz and 24 1/2 inches long (she has been 1/2 inch taller since birth!!)

They enjoy playing on the activity mat together

In addition, we started cereal with Wright this weekend and will follow with Kate in another week or two. We recently had to change her formula and she has consistently been about 2 weeks behind him. It will be interesting and fun as we learn to adjust to the new eating! More to come.

They continue to sleep through the night which is wonderful. Thursday night was the first night in separate cribs and I gave myself a blister switching the monitor from A to B. Fortunately, we have two videos for the monitor so I can see them both. I thought they LOVED sleeping beside each other and that it would be hard for them, but Friday morning they had both turned and were spread out and sleeping peacefully! I think they are glad to have the extra room.

They really are the sweetest babies and are so good! Kate talks more than Wright and moves her hands more frequently. Wright just wants to move. He has started arching his back to get out of his boppy seat and uses his legs to move when laying on his tummy. He doesn't go anywhere quite yet, but he is definitely trying!

Jennifer, Matt and baby Thomas visited us today! We had so much fun with the babies and catching up with our friends. We attempted a walk to the dock and of course when we go outside it became extremely windy. Thomas and Kate enjoyed the double stroller while Wright was held by mommy in the bjorn.

I couldn't resist the bonnet although Kate doesn't look very happy to be wearing it...or she may be wondering who the new baby boy is beside her. Thomas enjoyed his stroll with Kate and Wright didn't miss the stroller..he is still adjusting.

Jennifer and I with our babies...we do look like tired new mommies!
