Raising twins



My boys are the best yet I find sometimes I wish I only had one at a time. They truly are a double blessing, but when both are crying and I am alone it would be nice to only have one. I enjoy them so much, they are the best thing that every happened to me (besides Ryan).

The boys are growing so quick, they are already 5 months old. I can't believe how quick time goes. My advice to anyone with newborns is to hold them as much as possible. I look back at pictures of our boys just a few months ago and I already wish I had spent more time holding them. It goes so quick and they grow so fast.

Wesley is outpacing Jonah in weight and height. I weighed them this morning and Wesley was 14 pounds and Jonah was 13. I always thought of Jonah as bigger, but Wesley definitely takes the cake. He is a more efficient eater, even when he is asleep.

So far both boys have rolled over from their stomach to their back and Wesley is almost ready to roll over from his back to front, I think mostly because he is so wiggly. Our other adventure is starting rice cereal. We are on our second week of it. I think the boys are finally starting to get it. With the two rice cereal meals a day I am having to pump, which is not my favorite thing. I am also trying to stock the freezer for when I go to the women's retreat for church in a couple of weeks. I am blessed to have abundant milk...

Here are a few photos of the boys sitting in their high chairs.

  1. I can only imagine when they are both crying how bad it could get! That is amazing from 2 months ago how big they are!
