5 Months!!

Twins are 5 months already and growing like weeds!  Jaken is already 16lbs 11oz & Tesla is 13lbs 13.5oz.

They love to be read to and sit up in their Bumbo seats.  Jaken has learned to roll from his back to his tummy but Tesla isn't really interested in that as she isn't fond of tummy time at all.  =)  But she does roll and scoot around a lot.

Merry Christmas from the Wolf cubs!!

Daddy is convinced that we're really standing  =)

Have a very Merry Christmas and remember Jesus is the reason for the Season!

Thanksgiving!! & Meeting Great Grandma Wolf!!

We had a great Thanksgiving!  On Thursday it was just the four of us (Mommy forgot to take pictures) and we had a wonderful relaxing day.  On Friday we all headed to Grandpa & Grandma Wolf's house to hang out with our Wolf family!

Here are some pictures:

hanging with Grandma Wolf - Momma dressed me in polka dots b/c she loves them

hanging with Uncle Jon

 waking up Uncle James - he was still lounging on the couch

Uncle James and I hung out more after he was more awake

Grandpa and I hung out at the table after a yummy dinner

Uncle James with his panda

Laughing with Uncle Jon - we liked hanging out

I've almost figured out how to put my pacifier in my mouth  =)

Great Grandma Wolf (from Arizona) came to visit all of us in Texas.  It was so much fun to meet her for the first time.  We loved hanging out with her!

I wasn't feeling good (I had an ear infection) and just wanted to hang out with Grandma

Talking & Laughing with Great Grandma Wolf

I loved laughing and chatting with Grandpa

the babysitters were a little tired after most of the day with all of us & our cousin Rhyder

we even had the chance to talk to each other - Tesla talked more than I did though

Great Grandma Wolf & me - pretty in pink!

after a long visiting weekend I was kinda tuckered out & fell asleep with Daddy

4 Months!!

I can't believe the twins are four months already - whew!  Time sure does fly.  =)  By today they're actually almost five months . . . I'm just behind on my pictures (thank you, Rose, for keeping me accountable)  ;-)

Here are a few from our "official photo shoot"

Jaken was really interested in his hands and wasn't really interested in smiling

Telsa was all about her smile. . .Jaken, his hands  =)

cuties back to back

We took a couple pictures on their actual 4 month birthday but they were sick so they don't look super great, but here are a couple.  The matching John Deere onsies came from Grandpa Eger!

smiles even though they're sick

both had the RSV virus, but weathered it well and are healthy now

My Mom, aka Grandma Eger, and my Aunt Ruth came for a visit for Grandma's birthday (and mine too).  It was Aunt Ruth's first time meeting the twins and everyone had a great time!

Tesla snuggled up with Aunt Ruth the first night

We also started the twins on cereal and some fruit this past couple weeks.  These are their first reactions to trying something new . . . was fun!  =)

ready and waiting in their new high chairs with their new bibs

this one just cracks me up - she looks so tiny and so interested, sorta

Jaken did pretty well - we tried brown rice cereal first

Tesla did okay but tends to spit it out as she smiles - we're still practicing with her

Grandma got to feed them too - Tesla wasn't as sure this second time 

Grandma feeding Jaken - he really likes bananas we've found

I hope you enjoy all the pictures.  I have to apologize for not getting pictures up more often.  Being a working full-time mom of twins takes a lot of time.  =)  Work is going well - I only work 3 days a week (though they are 12-14 hour days) so it's nice to have the other four days with my babies (& Joe, depending on the weekend).  =)  I'll get our Thanksgiving pictures up soon!

Halloween, Star Wars style

For their first Halloween we decided to go old school . . . Star Wars  =)  Here are our little Yoda & Ewok!

Tesla trying on her Yoda ears

Jaken trying on his Ewok hat

such a cutie!!

all dressed up and cute!!  (excuse the pink & blue socks)

a drooling Yoda

this is what really the majority of the pictures looked like - he, he

16 Weeks!!

Jaken enjoying tummy time (& watching the TV) 

Tesla actually enjoying tummy time - she only likes short stints of this  =)

Jaken "Why are you fussing, Tesla?"  --  Tesla "Why are you making me do this?  My head is so heavy!"

Ping has figured out how to enjoy the baby's swing too

Daddy & Tesla early one morning - she woke up earlier than usual so she hung out while we got ready

our little man Jaken

our sweet pea Tesla

Here are a few pics from the last couple weeks.  I'm sorry it has taken me a bit to get new ones up - my computer was acting up and not letting me upload pictures.

We are so enjoying our babies and love them more and more everyday!!  Today is actually their four month birthday!  =)
