4 months old!!





Emmy and Max are four months old now and are such fun!  Each of their personalities are really coming through and they are definatley getting their own look.  They are becoming two seperate little people and my heart is so full.

Emmy has learned to roll over,  She is pretty laid back unless she is hungry or tired and then she goes from 0- 60 with a loud, intense cry,  She got her first ear infection and was not responding to sounds much.  I was really worried she was deaf as that can be a common side effect of premature, small babies.  Luckily, her ear was just really plugged and once her ear cleared up she could respond to sounds just fine,  She smiles at anyone who looks her direction.  She babbles a lot and is such a happy girl the majority of the time.  She tried solid foods this month! She LOVES sweet potatoes- and thats it!  She wont eat any other vegatables, fruits and is allergic to rice and oatmeal cereals.  She takes a few long naps during the day and gets up once a night.  She went to the doctor and got vaccinations.  She weighs 11 Ibs 5 oz (8%) and is 22 3/4 inches long (6%).


Oh how I love my Max!  He keeps me on my toes already.Max is more fussy and wants attention all the time. He likes to watch T.V already.  His reflux has gotten better thankfully, He has become a really good sleeper (12 hours) at a time.  But he takes on a few little short naps during the day so it has become a lot busier and crazier having twins.  He tried his first solids this month.  He LOVES rice and oatmeal, but is allergic to sweet potatoes, peas, and bananas.  It gets a rash.  He went to the doctor this month and got vaccinations.  He weighs 11 Ibs 3 oz.  (1 %) and is 22 1/4 inches long (.12%).

Labor Day

Labor day is such a fun holiday in our family.  The Rowley extended family usually gets together and spends the weekend in Parowan attending the parade, the carnival, the rodeos, etc.  We took the kids to the Mud Bogs this year and Boston and Addy thought it was so cool.  Trav was pretty excited too! This year was especially special because the girls in the family decided we were going to run the 5K in honor of my Mom who was diagnosed with Breast Cancer.  We all dressed in matching pink socks and splashed ourselves in pink and ran.  It was really cool.  It was definately a memorable holiday for all of our family.
