Rock & Roll

Wow! What a difference a year has made. At this time last year I was on bed rest at Spectrum and we, along with so many others, were fervently praying that I stay pregnant and that the Lord prepare our twinners for birth. Now, 11 months later, we are celebrating our little miracles and praising God daily for how far they have come. We continue to pray for them daily but our prayers are different this year. Now we are praying for their continued health, growth and development and blessing God for the beautiful twins he has entrusted us with. At 11 months old Adalyn is 18lbs 15oz and Emma is 18lbs 7.5oz. They are doing great! They both sit up 100% on their own like champs with no problems. The are getting up on all four and rocking back and fourth. Emma gets pretty excited about it and rocks so fast that she move backwards, which ultimately frustrates her but cracks Dave & I up. Adalyn likes to practice her rocking in secret in her crib when she is supposed to be sleeping, stinker! The girls are rolling machines and are getting into everything they can. To be completely honest, I was surprised they are gaining weight because they never stop moving! They are trying to get into everything and they cannot even crawl yet :) They LOVE their super saucers (or exersaucers as some call them) and nearly tip them over they get jumping and rocking so hard. EVERYTHING in their reach ends up in their mouth so we have to really watch what is around them. They are tons of fun and have amazing little personalities filled with all sorts of girlie drama :) Here are some pictures of the girls from the past month.
