Today marks Parker and Noah officially turning 3 months old. No more counting their age by weeks any more, they have graduated.
This has been the most incredible, exciting, scary, silly, overwhelming, stressful, loving, happy, fun and amazing THREE months of our lives. It's a non-stop adventure but an adventure we would not trade for anything. It's an honor to be the parents of these little babies. They are gifts from God. They are so perfect!
We have gone from syringe feedings every 2 hrs to 5oz bottles ever 3-4 hrs, itty bity preemie clothes to size 3-6 months, the tiniest diapers to pampers 1's, no sleeping schedules to just as of this week sleeping from 9pm til the 4:30am "thru the night" according to the books, just laying there to holding rattles, and the best crying to communicate to SMILES all the time now.
Let me tell you about out little guys:
Noah, first born, now weights at least 12 lbs, has green eyes, brunette and the longest eye lashes. He has the strongest grip. Noah is very laid back, wants to be included - social, slow and steady eater, gentle, loves to cuddle, has eyes that can just melt your heart, music and mommy are his 2 favorite things.
Parker is the cutest little boy. He is at least 13lbs, has chunky baby rolls (nickname Chompers for a reason), red hair and crystal blue eyes. He has the best smile and laugh. Parker is either ON or sleeping. He lets you know what and when he needs you or something. We think he is so easy going - he can hang out and play by himself for a good amount of time.
They together are great. We think they are aware of each other but they don't interact with each other just yet...they will one day. They sleep in same room but their own crib. They are still on same eating, laying and sleep schedules. We have been incredibly fortunate.
Happy 3 Month Noah and Parker
We love you with all our heart! Thank you for teaching us more than you will ever know!
Love Mommy and Daddy

So so sweet! Sorry we couldn't get together the other day! Matthew had a nasty cold then I got it, then Craig got it then finally Mason got it... It is on its way out though finally, I just need to disinfect my house! Craig will be gone to work a football camp until this weekend but maybe next week or weekend we can find time to get together! Mason's big 3 months mark is tomorrow...can't believe how fast it goes!
