Twelve Weeks!

Avery and Ryan are twelve weeks today and doing great. We have had fun the last two weeks. We made a visit to my office and everyone enjoyed meeting them. Avery slept through most of the visit while Ryan was very alert and smiley. He definitely doesn't want to miss out on anything. We have made it out for strolls around the neighborhood with Raleigh when it isn't snowing or raining. They both love their car seats whether they are in the car or the stroller.

Andy and I ventured to the mall last Saturday to do some shopping for us and the babies. It went well. We did one feed there and also were able to eat at a restaurant. I definitely notice we get a lot of attention between the comments, pointing, etc. Most people keep their distance but some do approach us and ask questions.

This week, I met a colleague and her newborn for lunch. Our babies were due around the same time, mine just arrived much earlier. So, there were two adults and 3 car seats. It was good to catch up and meet each other's babies. I also meet my boss from StorageTek for lunch with the babies. And, I hosted book club on Tuesday night. It was fun to drink some wine and have girl talk while Andy did a great job hanging out with the babies.

Avery and Ryan have always been good sleepers at night in between their feeds. The past few weeks, they have both been waking around 4am after the 11am feed. This morning, they didn't wake until after 5am! Hopefully, this trend continues since I go back to work in a week! One thing that cracks us up is that they do a lot of jabbering, as if they are having a conversation, after this feed and eventually fall back to sleep.

I think they are now ready to move into their 0 to 3 months clothing. Here are some pictures of them in new outfits in the bigger size and some tummy time pics! Ryan likes to roll over one way and Avery has only done it once or twice.
