the twinsies: 8 months

And another big milestone, they have officially doubled their gestational life span!

The babies are at this really awesome stage where you just so badly want to eat them because they are so cute. So smiley, so reactive of people and things around them, I'm loving it.

-Quinn has got the army crawl down pat. Sometimes plays around on his hands and knees but prefers to crawl across the room on his tummy. He's pretty quick and can get anywhere he wants to almost immediately.

-Bryson finally began hid forward movement a couple days after he turned 8 months! We had big celebrations for him and were so happy! He somehow just scoots forward using tons of different methods, pretty funny. Now, at a week later he's just as fast of an army crawler as Quinn.

-THEY EAT SO MUCH FOOD. Seriously, they don't stop and just eat more and more and more. They are nearly fully onto table food and baby purees are long gone. It's messier but a lot easier for me to just throw stuff on their plates and let them go to town. They definitely get the most cranky and cry the most when you don't give them food fast enough. Oink.

-Awesome sleepers. Sleep 7 pm-6 am. Sometimes one or both wake between 3 am-5 am to eat but not always. I'm not ready to force them cutting out that last "middle of the night" feeding because the past 8 months they've been really great at slowly transitioning out of things so I'm cool with it. Take 2-3 naps a day (mostly 3 still). Naps range from 45 min-1 1/2 or 2 sometimes. They are so great at just putting themselves to sleep in their own bed, it's the best thing ever.

-They smile in an instant, it's the best. Max has begun making efforts to get them to smile which has been fun to see too, he's overall really really good with the babies and their relationship is cute.

-Quinn has the funniest yell when he's bored/mad/trying to get your attention. Once you react to him mid yell he gets a huge silly smile on his face and his eyebrows raise all high like he's happily surprised.

-They are just the sweetest boys! So happy and wonderful. I'm starting to get more to the point that twins are fun and not just a ton of work, ha. Love these little boy!

Bryson (you guys, I love the little dot by his eye oh so much. It's the best feature Heavenly Father blessed him with so we can tell them apart! Perfect spot!)

Progression of the twin bump.

 Amazing news, I finished our 2014 family photo album! Wahoo! It's been 2 months shy of being done for almost 4 months now so it was high time I got my bum in gear. I made a comparison of my pregnancy pictures in it that I thought would be fun to share here too. Being this huge feels like yesterday even though it was 7(!) months ago, ha. It is something I will never forget. So do enjoy my giganticness and feel free to compare your pregnant self to me and feel way good about yourself ;)
That last month was so hard to find clothing to fit over my stomach. Casey's shirts didn't really fit me anymore except for like 2, and even then I would have liked more room in them. I am so proud of what my body did and still amazed how God created it to do such amazing things. The trust He has in us women!

Click here for the same comparison pictures when I was pregnant with Maxson

And another fun series we did. Slowly but surely my toes seem to disappear! That belly was HUGE!

A delicious graduation

2 Super duper great friends in our ward graduated from Dental school last week and are/will be off to Wyoming to go be real practicing dentists! Crazy talk. We were finally in town for a graduation party bbq and it was so wonderful to be around so many friends. A family who graduated last year was even there t celebrate with us all which made it even better. Man we sure did win the jackpot when it comes to friends here in Nebrasksa!

















Max looks awful in this picture but it's the only family one we got.







Casey is especially sad since these two guys are essentially his bff's. They're the graduating ones
ANNNNNND, remember this pregnant picture with friends we took at my baby shower last year?
Here we all are with our cute babies!!!!!! Fun, right?

Congratulations Christopherson and George families, we will miss you oh so dearly! Luckily we'll all live in the practically uninhabited state of Wyoming together someday so we'll for sure see each other even if we live hours away, chuckle chuckle.
