7 1/2 Weeks

Today the babies are 71/2 weeks old, and mommy is 6 weeks post delivery.
Reese and Grant are doing great, starting to really make more noises(Grant sounds like a little Chipmunk) and really lifting their heads during tummy time.  Reese isnt as impressed by this tummy time, but Grant really seems to enjoy it...for a short time anyway.  They are both really just so strong!


The babies are eating 4 to 6 ounces every 3-5 hours.  Sometimes at night, mommy even gets 4 hours of sleep at a time! (as of 6 weeks).  Last night, I actually got 6 straight hours of sleep...wow!
Reese has a little bit of baby acne on her face, but it doesnt bother her.  Grant has a few places where he gets it also, but not as bad as Reese.  It seems to clear up if we dont let her get too hot.  The babies still like their baths, but getting out is no fun for them...its so cold!!!


Mommy got released from the doctor a week and 1/2 ago and has  passed her glucose test with flying colors.  The incision is healed up and I am feeling pretty good. 

Uncle Bart came in town to visit 2 weeks ago, and has had a good time posing with the twins!  Everyone still says that Grant looks like Uncle Bart sometimes.


Also, Thanksgiving was last week and we had a good time being passed around and around at all of the family functions.  Of course once we go home, we didn't want to go to bed, or be put down to sleep.  Looks like these babies like the structure of their routine and when they get off it, Mommy and Daddy have to pay! 

We are still getting lots of visitors, it is slowing down some, but we still have several a week.

  1. Like the family pic! Would need a wide angle lens for a Whitaker Family picture.
