well, almost. they will be on the 24th.
they are smiling all the time now. and it makes me yelp with excitement every single time. it never gets old.
lucy is holding her head up like a champ.
cate? not so much. but to be fair, her cranium is way larger. HEE!
not sure of their weights, but their checkup is next week. they are getting so big.
they really are such good babies. they eat well, sleep well, and are starting to get on a routine.
cate always squawks at us to let us know she wants to be held.
lucy, on the other hand, is content to be put in the swing and fall asleep on her own.
that's not to say she doesn't LOVE a good daddy snuggle.
lucy is more the daddy's girl. i think cate prefers to eat from mommy instead of a bottle, and to be held by her mama as well. it's hard to ever get her to let me put her down. she's my sweet mommy's girl.
lucy eats so much more/faster than her sister. it takes cate SO long to finish a bottle. ridiculously long.
lucy sleeps longer...i think because she is bigger and eats more. cate is usually the one waking both of them up at night.
c+l are both sleeping from about 9 or ten until 2 or 3 am. This has been SO appreciated by mama!
i can't believe they've been in this world for 2 months.
they are so beautiful, sweet, and precious to me!
happy saturday!

Wow that has seemed to go by fast. I love seeing their pictures. I'm pregnant with my 4th and in two weeks we will find out if it's a girl or boy. I have a 5 1/2 year old daughter and two boys - almost 4 years and 17 months. We've never found out ahead of time, but I am so excited to know early this time.

I just said, "Hey Mom, Stephanie posted baby pictures." Mom smiled and said, "Lets look at the new pictures of my adopted grandbabies." She gets so excited to see their pictures and to hear how all four girls are doing.

They are just precious, Steph!!! I can't believe they are 2 mo old!! Time sure flies. My oldest when she comes to visit (she is 22) wants to know how you all are doing. You and your family are definitely a household name over here!! Thank you for taking time to keep us updated. :)
