Photographer

We visited Gramdma today and Tate insisted on taking our picture. He got some good ones of our legs!!

Pictures

The girls had their 3 month pictures this morning. They woke up early which messed up the entire day. They managed to take some cute ones even though they  both cried nearly the whole time. Tate went to daycare and then had swimming lessons. He wasn't too interested in doing much so we called it good for this year. The girls are really starting to notice each other. They like to give each other smiles. 

Swimming

Tate started swimming lessons today. My friend is working with him. He didn't want to do too much that she asked him to do. He went down the slide and then he climbed up it again and started crying. Poor little guy was so scared. Audrey cried the whole time we were there. Everyone fell asleep in the car so I drive around for a while. They also took good naps when we got home!

Visitors

My fellow foodie, Kirstin, and her husband Tony came to our house for a visit. They brought along their niece and nephew. There is just a few weeks difference in age between the boys. They had a good time playing and it was great to catch up. Audrey ate 5 ounces at once without screaming. 

Exciting

We had a fun and exciting day.  We hung out with Jessica and Lennon. We started at the little bird watching center. They have some lizards and snakes in cages to look at. Then we went to check out the pizza place with an arcade and play place. The boys had fun in the arcade even though they didn't get a single quarter. The play place was dark and scary to Tate. Then we went to Walmart. Audrey had a pretty tough day. Her gastric emptying test is scheduled for July 28. 

Apology

I had a surprise visit from priest this morning. He gave me a very sincere apology. We went swimming this afternoon with Tate's friend Rhett. The boys had a good time and the girls were hot. My college roommate had a baby girl this morning. Her first baby was 1 lb. 9 oz. and after a lot of time in the NICU he ended up just fine. She had to deliver this girl at 36 weeks due the previous vertical c-section. The baby needed help breathing and had to be transferred to a different hospital.  

3 months

The girls are three months old today. They are both wearing size 1 diapers (Ellie needs 2s at night) and in 0-3 month clothes. Ellie eats 5 oz. every 2.5-3 hours and sleeps from about 7:30-6:30. Audrey eats 4 oz. every 2-2.5 hours but her feedings take a long time. She gets up once or twice a night. I try to get both girls up at the same time each day. They are both taking catnaps. They both are smiling and starting to talk. They both seem to be on the verge of laughing. Audrey still does not have great head control and we stretch her neck for torticollis. Ellie is doing great. She hates tummy time just like her sister. Her head is very flat. They are just too precious. It is fun to watch these sweet girls grow.  Tate had his buddy Lennon come eat lunch and play. He was exhausted by evening.
