1 Month Birthday

HAPPY ONE MONTH BIRTHDAY REESE AND GRANT!! 

Wow, the time has gone sooooo fast; Reese and Grant are growing so much!  They went to see the doctor today for their one month check up.  Dr.Norman was very pleased with their weight gains!  Reese is now 8 lbs 15 oz, and Grant is now 8 lbs.  He is catching up!  We think the nurse messed up on Grant's height measurement because it made him longer than his sister...which is NOT the case.  She measured Reese at 20 1/2 inches, and Grant at 22 1/4. 
Both of them were very good at the doctor visit, they didn't mind hanging out in their diapers.  They both passed the hearing test with flying colors and seem to be developing at the right speed.  They both have wakeful periods of more than an hour at a time, and seem to be grasping their hands.  They also seem to follow our movements and voices just fine.
Both babies are eating 4 - 5 ounces every 3-4 hours, there have even been a few times that Reese went 5 hours.

Thing 2-AKA-Grant

Mommy and Daddy are adjusting to the new schedule OK.  The nights when Daddy has to work the next day, mommy only gets an hour or two here or there, the weekends and days when Daddy can share in the nighttime feedings are much better!  We are just so blessed to have these two precious babies, that those sleepless nights don't seem so bad.

This last Sunday was the first day we made it to church!  Thank goodness for the family room behind the sanctuary, so we could sit in there and listen to the service.  Reese and Grant did really well, but of course it was feeding time during the service.  Everyone at church was very happy to meet them, Pastor Drew had us come out to the Sanctuary to show them off during the service.  We had roses on the Altar to welcome them, and Reese's name was misspelled in the bulletin, but Pastor Drew made sure to tell the congregation about the mix up.
