3 Months Old

Today is the boys' 3 month birthday... Happy Birthday Boys!!!

We need to apologize for not updating the blog any sooner, but the boys are quite a handful and we have been just too tired in the evening to do very much of anything.  The good news is that the boys are doing great and are growing like weeds.

We had a pediatrician appointment today and the boys got good marks from their doctor.  Alex is now 8 lbs. 5 oz. and Anthony is a whopping 10 lbs. 9 oz.  The boys have essentially tripled in weight from their birth weight.  The doctor is very pleased with how they are growing and their motor development to date.  We are so happy that the boys seem to be doing so well.

Tricia and I are also doing well, but we could not of imagined how much work these two guys are.  Unfortunately, the boys need to eat so much so frequently that we have to get up usually at 2:oo am and 6:00 am to feed them.  It is really playing havoc on our sleep but we are getting by.  We have begun to see some improvement in their sleeping and we think they may be able to sleep 6 hours straight in a few weeks.  That will be a welcome change.

We have had a few visitors, mostly family and a a couple of friends, but we are still following our doctor's orders to minimize visitors until the weather really warms up.  We will have to keep the boys cooped up in the house until the end of May.

Below are a few pictures of the boys.  Some of them are a couple of weeks old, but they are pretty fun to look at.  Enjoy!
