April 26 (I actually started this about 2 weeks ago...Geesh). Moving forward.

Hi Brother. Let me chew on your hand! (7 Month photo)
I am finally (well going to try really hard) to get back to posting blogs of our everyday life here on this site vs. caringbridge. I finally escaped to the local grocery store to try to gather my life here in this blog. Trying something new. Maybe this will be a new routine and help in clearing my head. With the twins keeping me busy every minute, I am sure not to remember most of the precious moments. PS... Looks like my blog needs a new title :) suggestions welcome.

Our "limo!" Out for a walk.
I don't even know where to start/pickup at. I am going to go back to March. The rest is on caringbridge. The following pictures are of Zoe and Zayne when they turned 7 months. We had there 6 month check up (nearly 7 months)We thought Zoe was a lot heavier than Zayne but come to find out they are pretty close in weight. Zoe was 14# 12.9 oz and 25 1/4" long and Zayne was 14# 3.9 oz. and 25 3/4" long. Zoe has rolled over once or twice but then quickly forgets how or what she was doing. Zayne still does not roll over. They are becoming more vocal everyday. Zayne has definitely found his voice, sometimes you can't even tell the two apart. We still continue to be amazed that they are able to take naps together. We don't even try to get them on the same nap schedule, they just do it on their own. They usually fall asleep within 5-10 minutes of each other and wake up 5-10 minutes of each other if not at the same time. They also continue to be sleeping through the night which is great.
Just love Zayne's face in this picture.









We like to take the two out for walks. They  both like to get outside. The weather has been super nice here so we try to take advantage of it. Grandpa Scooter also came to visit in March. He brought his chanter (part of his bagpipes) and we quickly learned that Zayne loves to listen to the bagpipes. He was so excited when my dad was playing for him. It was really quite cute, we have never seen him get so excited. But, the two do really love music. I always tell people that the only things I did while on bedrest was listen to music, sleep, and pray, okay I did to my fair share of crocheting. So, it's not to our surprise that they love music.
They both love bath time. Zoe loves to kick and splash. She is quickly teaching Zayne how to do the same. It's so fun to watch them in the bath tub, even if it is a lot of work getting them there. We have yet to do baths together.
I am always impressed with how much Zoe loves the water. She has no fear. She gets so excited for bath time. I am excited for when we can put them in the tub together. 
Does it get any  more precious?



Could stare at this forever. 
I hope the the many caringbridge followers that we have will start to follow us on this blog. You can set it so that you are a follower and can get notifications. There is a part of me that wishes I would of put our whole caringbridge on this site...looking back. But I guess after a flight here, knowing you are on bedrest for the foreseeable future, unsure of the health of your babes, and being on magnesium, you can't quite think things through. So, I will work on the merge. This blog is not only for mine and Andy's memories, but I hope that it helps and can encourage other parents who go through similar situations, also it is very therapeutic for me to sit and write these memories and feelings out. I could go shopping, go for a walk, whatever to get out of the house, many times  I just ask Andy "can I please just go write a blog?" and when I do, I feel better.

Also I would like to copyright this website address and the pictures on here. If anyone has advice on how to that, please email me, comment on here, text, or message me on facebook.

Many, many people say I should write a book. I can't count the number of times I have been told that. So, if someone want to find that writer looking for a good story, and the publisher, then I am all for it, Come to find out, you are really busy with Twins and I don't have time to write a book. Oh, and I get the money :)

So yeah, here is my first new update on our blog. I feel better! Hugs.
