Three wonderful months

Yep, it's been three months since these precious lives entered our world.  My how time flies and how quickly they grow.  We have had a busy month and I'll blog about that later.  But for now here are these little guys and what they're up to.
Raise your hand if you have the best brother in the world!

Caleb
You love letting Calvin hit the toys above you while you just lay there and watch them move.  When he's not under the activity mat with you you'll hit them and grab the rings too!  You just know when you have to use your energy.
You're getting so strong and can lift your head like a little bug when you're on your tummy.  You can really pull your legs under your stomach and scoot- thank goodness your arms and neck aren't as strong or else you would be crawling.
You love the jumparoo.
You smile all the time- even when you're hungry and trying to act mad.  You've let out a few happy squeals and some little giggles but we're still waiting on the big laugh.
You're a great sleeper and still put yourself to sleep in your crib.  You sleep 9-10 hours at night without waking.  We usually wake you up in the morning to eat since Calvin is already up.
You love the bouncy seat and will just chill in it all afternoon if I let you.
You still eat about 7 ounces at every feeding.  Sometimes at night you demand more and have eaten up to 10 ounces.

Caleb also smiles really big when he sees the camera flash.  Unfortunately my camera isn't fast enough between pictures to get the giant smile!

Calvin
You are so active with your toys just kicking your legs and swinging your arms.  It is hilarious to watch when you're really worked up!  Thank you for entertaining your brother and yourself so well.  We can just lay you guys on the activity mat and you two play while we cook and eat dinner.
Even more than the toys you LOVE the jumparoo.  You have a secret obsession with it and don't really like to share with Caleb.  Luckily you got a new toys for Christmas that you're figuring out!
You are so lazy on your tummy.  You can totally lift your head and look around but 90% of the time ou just lay flat on your tummy, suck your hand, and kick your legs.  You can also really pull your legs under your stomach and scoot- thank goodness your arms and neck aren't as strong or else you would be crawling.
You smile so much and love to watch us talk to you.  You've let out a few happy squeals and some little giggles but we're still waiting on the big laugh.
You're a great sleeper and still put yourself to sleep in your crib.  You sleep 9-10 hours at night and usually only wake up once around 5 am.  You are always the first to wake up though and take a paci until we're ready to feed you two.
You love the swing and smile so big when we put you in it.  You usually wake up early from your afternoon nap and love sitting in the swing.  You'll sit there smiling for about 20 mins until you pass out!
You have discovered your mobile above the crib and the swing.  Your smile is precious when you're watching it.  Right now I will sit there and just hit it above the crib so the animals dance for you.  I think you're about to get an electronic one...
You still eat about 7 ounces at every feeding.  Sometimes at night you demand more and have eaten up to 9.5 ounces.



Our life is getting to be so much fun with these boys- some hard work but it seems fun!  I still love that if I'm tired your daddy will send me to bed early and take care of playing with you and feeding you for the night.  In fact last night he slept on the couch so he could take care of you just in case you woke up early.  I got 10 hours of sleep!

Here's a quiz for you....can you name baby #1 and #2???
 

The left photo is of Calvin and the right one is Caleb.  I think as they are growing they're looking more and more alike!
