Back to work for Mommy :(

Today is Mommy's first day back at work:( Mommy was very sad to leave the twins, but happy that Daddy is staying home with them for two weeks. After that, the Grandparents and Aunts are taking turns watching the babies for a few weeks, which makes Mommy feel much better!

Trey reached out and grabbed something for the first time today! He picked up Bella's butterfly slipper while Mommy was changing his diaper! I guess he didn't want to let his sister get ahead of him!

Grabbing!

Bella reached out and grabbed something for the first time today! She picked up a little pink stuffed animal lamb with a rattle in it and put it on her belly while Mommy was changing her diaper!

No more formula in the bottles

Mommy and Daddy decided that the nighttime formula bottle is not Trey and Bella to sleep any longer. We tried for a few days, and it does nothing, so we would rather have the babies drink what nature intended.

They will no longer be getting formula and will have all breast milk once again.

Thanksgiving

Today is Bella and Trey's first Thanksgiving!

They will be visiting Mom Mom and Pop Pop's house in the morning while Daddy plays football and then will be going to Grandmom's house in the afternoon!

Tried formula to help with sleep - didn't work!

Apparently, the formula doesn't help babies sleep longer if they don't take enough!

Trey was awake again in a few hours like normal.

Bella did sleep longer but we think that is because she was fussy due to her shots so she slept with Daddy. The babies always sleep longer when they sleep with Daddy since he's so warm!

Trey and Bella had another visit to the Pediatrician's office today for their 2nd Synagis injection for RSV. Both cried a little but were very brave.

Check up

Trey and Bella had a check up at the Pediatrician today.
Trey now weighs 7 pounds 3 ounces and is 20 1/2 inches long!

Bella now weighs 6 pounds 12 ounces and is 19 1/4 inches long!

Both got a clean bill of health along with 5 immunizations each. Yikes!

Trey and Bella both had their first bottle of formula today. Dr. Krol said that it should help them sleep a little longer at night so that Mommy can get some sleep before going back to work on Monday. Bella took 3 1/2 ounces and Trey took 3 ounces ~ Both a little less than their usual night time breast milk bottles.
