Babies

Since Henley was born she has kicked her legs back. The nurse in the hospital called it c-section hips. Well, she still loves to kick those hips back. Her latest trick is chewing on her foot. It's pretty funny, but we haven't been able to get it on camera yet. Here she is kicking those hips back though!
I love seeing everyone's black and white pics on the blogs, so I decided to turn some of ours black and white. How pretty does Davis look? I take that back, how handsome does he look? They were dressed for school in their polos. He looks so grown up.
Here they are awaiting school in the morning. Henley is smaller than Davis but she looks much smaller in this picture. I think its just the way they were positioned.

Some milestones to report -- over the past couple of weeks, they have really changed. I feel like they are changing so fast. They are grabbing for my face and for toys. Both of them can pull the toys off of the chair and they LOVE to do it. Henley is getting more hair and it's getting longer. I think Davis is too, but his is definitely less noticeable. Mornings are still our best time -- they love to sing and talk in the mornings. It's one of my favorite times.
Henley's favorite book is 5 little Monkeys and Davis's is Brown Bear, Brown Bear...they just light up when I start reading. Hopefully it will translate into a love of reading? However, they are both obsessed with Baby Einstein as well. Sometimes it's the only thing that works...especially when "melt-down" comes at night. Our routine usually is Baby Einstein, walk, bath, bottle and bed. Hey -- whatever works!
We had our first sickness and survived. The babies caught a stomach bug and were sick for about a week and 1/2. It was REALLY hard, waking up 8 and 9 times a night to either change a diaper or comfort or feed. Glad that is over for now. Swine Flu stay AWAY!
