My little pumpkins

We had a fun family outing this past weekend at the Dallas Arboretum. We finally had some beautiful fall weather and were able to take some fun pictures of the babies in the pumpkins. We went really early to beat the crowd. (I'm still so nervous about being around large crowds of people..... my poor babies are going to be hermits this winter.)







In other news, Carson and Avery are three weeks old as of yesterday. I can't believe that we have had them for three weeks now. The days have been going by so fast. I've been trying so hard to get them on a schedule, but they are babies and aren't always hungry at the same time, so that has made life fun!! During the night I make them eat at the same time so we can all get some sleep, but during the day it's kinda been a free for all. But we are figuring it out... and are loving being parents so much! They had their two week well baby check up last week. Carson weighed 6lbs 6oz and was 20.5inches long and Avery weighed 6lbs 13oz and was 19.9inches long. They gained a pound each in a week.... they are really good eaters. But they are still only in the 5th and 10th percentile for their weights. They already seem so big to me.

  5. Love all the pictures! All the cousins are precious! I just love pumpkin pictures with kids! You and Amber should get together and share stories on germs! :o) She was so freaked out bringing Parker to church b/c EVERYONE wanted to hold, touch, etc., especially the kids! Glad you and babies are doing so well! Time does fly, doesn't it? Oh, and the professional pics are awesome! Good luck trying to decide which ones to purchase! Love ya!
