Baby babble

The boys are talking and smiling all the time, now! The best time to strike up a conversation with them is while you're changing them- that's when they tend to be the most talkative. So you'll just have to come over and change a couple diapers to see for yourself ;)

Sweet, sweet sleep

The boys both slept for 8 hours straight last night! (At 9.5 weeks old, it's about time!) Translation: I got to sleep for 8 hours straight last night! Well ok, I briefly woke up once early in the morning, baffled by the silence, just to check and make sure the boys were still there... Anyway, I can't even begin to explain how happy I am! Previously they only slept 3 to 5 hours at a time, and rarely simultaneously. As an added bonus, they were both in their crib the whole time (they have been known to be averse to sleeping in their crib). And they fell asleep at 1:30 am- a full hour earlier than usual! And we didn't even have to feed them formula to get them to sleep, which is what the nurse had suggested. What a huge answer to prayer. Let's hope the boys keep this up!

Growing boys

Caleb and Joshua are 2 months old today! At their doctor's checkup, we learn that Joshua now weighs 12 lbs. and Caleb weighs 12 lbs. 4 oz. They are now in the 50th and 55th percentile for weight, respectively, and both are in the 50th percentile for length! It's hard to believe they've already nearly doubled their birth weight, although when I consider how much of my day is occupied by feeding the two of them, it makes sense!

Courtney & Tim's Wedding

We take the boys on their second road trip, this time to Charlottesville to celebrate Courtney and Tim's wedding! They stayed with their first non-grandparent babysitter on Friday night during the rehearsal dinner. A huge thank you to Grandma Susan and Grandpa Dave for babysitting during the wedding on Saturday!

New Year's Yut

We spend New Year's Day at the boys' Great Aunt Sooja's house. The boys snooze while we chow on a Korean food feast and play Yut, a Korean game traditionally played on New Year's day.
