Our Isabel said she wanted her picture doing push ups too...looking for her favorite toy. She is getting strong, but tummy time is not her favorite time of day - we caught her at a good moment!!!

Luke's hair
Thought this was a great picture of Luke and worth posting, since his peach fuzz shows up so well. It is white! Just like Josh's was at this age his Mom says. Yesterday was a big day for Luke - he rolled over twice from his tummy to his back, then Josh got this great shot of him holding up his head. He will hold his head up forever if he knows Josh is watching him. It's so fun to watch babies do new things! What a priviledge it is. Changing 10 diapers a day and feeding 2 babies at least 8 times a day, while giving enough hold time and stimulating them is all worth it when you see that smile and those moments! Then watching an episode of John and kate plus 8, and realizing my job is a breeze!!! Enjoy these photos.
They became arm in arm after a couple minutes of flaling their arms and legs in excitement over their friends!

Buddies
I wanted to share a neat thing that happened today with the twins. I could tell they were both very tired, so I tried everything to get them to sleep, but they just wouldnt go. So I decided to hold them up close together and lay them on my chest. I find that it relaxes them and calms their fussiness every time. So, when they finally fell asleep I just held them close, and we all three fell asleep. I woke up and looked down and they were holding all four hands together. It might have been a fluke, but it was the coolest thing. I just was overwhelmed with emotions seeing twenty little fingers woven together with such tight grips to one another. I hope they will always be close. It was definately a twin moment...one very special part of being a mother of twins is seeing these moments day to day. I always wish someone were there with me to witness it.

Orange Beach
Parenthood is all about making mistakes and learning from them right? Well we ventured to the beach this weekend! What a learning experience. Not doing that again for a very long time. It's funny how things sound like such a great idea - until you actually do it and it's not fun! Oh well...one day we know Luke and Isabel will love the beach. We'll just wait a year to find out!

2 days before the twins arrived....
I am so thankful my Dad took this picture....to remind me what it felt like to hold two precious lives inside of me...
Be encouraged!
Lord fill my heart with Yours
that I may know Your will,
those things that I should act upon
and when you want me still.
Guard my mind from useless thoughts
that clutter, harm, confuse.
Create in me a closeness
that Your course I'll always choose.
Clear my hearing, teach me
to identify the lies,
that I may only hear the truth
of who I am in Christ.
Lord, satisfy and fill me
with Your Spirit from above,
that I may truly know the freedom
of Unfailing Love.
Then planted deeply in that love,
my heart in full surrender,
Lift the veil for all to see,
my life display Your splendor.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
I BELIEVE......
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11
