At home with the girls...


Now that the girls are here, I've decided to pick up blogging again! Caroline (on left) and Claire (on right) are now 9 weeks old, and I am very blessed that they are on the same schedule and are both very good babies-hardly fussy and both seem very mellow so far. We're still waiting for that "sleeping through the night" thing to happen, but at least they make it 4-5 hour stretches now. Lately, they have really become alert and aware of their surroundings, so they love just looking around or looking up at the lights and the fan anytime they can.
They are just shy of 8 pounds each, which is funny to me b/c that's the size of a normal newborn, but they are already 9 weeks old! They have been wearing their newborn size clothes now this entire time, and I'm very excited for them to graduate to the 0-3 month size clothes b/c they have a bunch of cute spring clothes just waiting for them to wear! This outfit was my attempt to get them to the next size, but since it's still a little big on them, when I went to get Claire up from her nap, her pants were completely off her legs and just lying next to her in the crib. I think she was pretty proud of herself!

  1. Karie, Congratulations on these beautiful girls! Twins sounds like a handful but I know if anyone can handle it, you can. They look so sweet and precious. We're expecting girl #2 in June ourselves, so we'll have two little girls as well - just spaced a few years apart. :) Love, Beth
