School Starts!!!

Adelyn starts second grade this year and Boston will be going to preschool 3 times a week this year. I cannot believe how grown up those two are.   I can say we all agee we are excited for school.  Addy and Boston are ready to play with friends and we are all ready for more structure.  Here's to a great school year!

CANCER

Two weeks after we had our Twins my Mom was diagnosed with Breast Cancer.  Luckily we caught it very early and after her lumpectomy, she was offically at stage 0.  She decided however, with the full support of her family, to continue and do treatment.  We just dont find they missed something and have it come back with a vengence or at a stage 5 later down the road.  She did really well with her radiation other than having a few days of extreme nausea.  She will now do chemotherapy for 5 years.  She is getting very tired now that she has been taking the chemo pill for a couple of months.  I was able to be there the day she finished her radiation treatment.  The treatment center has a big gong they have patients hit on their last day of treatment as a way to celebrate.  I was able to be there.  I am so proud of my Mom and how she has handled this situation.  I am convinced that this was a big reason why we were to move back to when we did.  So grateful she is doing so well and we caught is so early on,

3 months old

The twins are three months old.  Each of their personalities are starting to shine through.  Emmy is a little spit fire and cries really intensely when she wants something. She sleeps in her crib and is a wild sleeper.  She rolls over now and likes her belly.  Emmy is very social.  She will sit back quietly, but when anyone talks to her she grins so big!  When she smiles she smiles with her eyes shut and with her whole face.

  Max is more chillax and his cry is more of a small whimper.  He has reflux which makes him miserable. He loves to be held all the time right now.  He has started to interact with objects.  He can roll over, but likes his back now so he doesnt roll over much. He sleeps upright in the swing and is getting a very flat head. Emmy sleeps in her crib.  They used to sleep together, but Max could not sleep flat and Emmy is a wild sleeper.  Both eat every 2 hours.

Summertime FUN!

This summer has been such an adventure!  Adelyn and Boston have been earning brag badges and spent much of the summer playing in our neighborhood or our backyard.  I am so grateful we have a yard and great friends that surround us.  It has been such a blessing as I am caring for 2 newborns and Trav is working.  School starts soon and I have mixed emotions about it.  I LOVE having my kids at home, but I am ready for a schedule and for Adelyn and Boston to learn and grow.  Here are a few pictures of our summer!
