We are 2 months old now


Dax has had enough - this couch is too slippery and Bella keeps kicking him.
Daddy and Bella hard at work... she loves her Daddy time.

Well Dax may be bigger now, but I am doing just fine. I am now 9lbs 5 ozs... I will probably be petite like my mommy.

Dax relaxing for a bit. I have caught up to Bella and then some. I am now 10 lbs 11oz and Mommy says I am getting too big.

Our first bath in the big tub was a success! We just don't like being cold when we are done - hurry up and get us dressed!

Nana waiting to feed Dax. He is trying to figure out what she is waiting for...


Bella trying to find her thumb. Most of the time she gives up and just sucks on her whole hand.
We have these shirts in many sizes... and boy are they right. We can definitely be lots of trouble when we want to, but then we usually grin or make a funny face and Mommy forgets what we did before.


Duke is watching over us... no one will get too close, unless they let Duke lick them!

What part of Princess do you not understand? I don't like to be left alone for long...

Daddy & Dax play video games together... we need to remind Daddy about age limits when I get a little older... No Call of Duty for Dax!

Mommy and Dax take a quick nap on the couch... Bellas asleep in her Boppy chair.

We like to wake up in the middle of the night together... Mommy has to 'prop' our bottles so we don't scream while we wait... then we take turns burping!

Misc Photos of the twins

Okay - I think we are caught up after this, at least with the photos Mommy has... Aunt Amy and Nana have lots and lots and lots more, we will share them when we get them.

So Have fun looking at the last few for now, Mommy and Daddy will keep psoting them as we amuse and amaze them.

Love Dax and Bella

Breakfast with the whole gang at Main Street Cafe. We had to eat too!


Miss Lisa Across the street had to baby sit for mommy... her and the boys did a great job, we had to make them leave when mommy got home, they had so much fun.


Our First Meal as a family at the table. Grandma and Grandpa gave us our high chairs.


PLEASE... no more pictures...


Okay, one more just because I like you.

Daddy and Grandpa with the twins.


Auntie Amy and Dax (She calls me doodles...)


Nanny Jo and Bella - she can get her to sleep when Mommy isn't looking... what is her secret?


Dax found his thumb... QUICK where is the passy????


It is a hot one - we got all sweaty in our car seats so Daddy took all our clothes off so we could cool off. WHEW!

Aunt Debbie came to see us too!


Dax has always been a little squirmer, he twisted all over his boppy, time to make sure he is buckled in from now on.


Bellas first giggle at mommy.


Our new swing - Dax loves it and Bella will tolerate it from time to time.


Hmmm - Auntie Amy SWEARS she would feel Dax move. So how did mommy take the picture, pick up Dax and put him in his boppy all without waking her??

Beautiful Bella

The Princess is FINALLY asleep.. .how long will it last?


Almost asleep here, but didn't last long... but aren't I cute anyhow??


HEY!! Are you paying attention to me?


Okay, I'll ask this time... are we there yet?

Dax's Many Little Faces


A happy face - maybe even flirting with mommy late at night!



Mommy's Favorite Photo of Dax... I think it will be his High School Graduation dedication photo... at least one of them. I am sure he will steal my heart with many more faces.


Mommy needs to remember to turn the photos before she does this, but had to include it for now, he is posing in his Chick Magnet outfit... look out girls!


Are we there yet???

Happy at Home

Daddy's awake this time... but for how long?
Bella's belly is full - now the fun begins.

Daddy has both of us! He can do it... we just knew it.


Bella just waiting for her turn to have a bottle before bedtime - if she decides to go to sleep tonight. She is our little night owl most nights.

Mommy and Dax - our last bottle before bedtime... He folded his hands for the first time.

Hmmm - do you see a pattern here??



This is Daddy's idea of helping mommy... how do we get him to wake up??







Bella's telling Dax to wake up!






At first, we could fit in one boppy... don't worry, mommy only did this for a picture... she wouldn't leave us like this!








This is where we spend the majority of our time... on the table in our boppy chairs! Thank you Auntie April - you were right, they are a life saver for mommy.





Dr. Dickey and the Twins

Our first visit to see Dr. Dickey after we got home. Nanny Jolene went with to help mommy and all of the nurses made it soo easy for us. Dr. Dickey was a little nervous holding us both at once.

A Happy Family

All packed up and ready to go home. It took 3 carts to haul all of our stuff to the car. And Daddy has a new driving style... SAFE! It took more than double the amount of time to get home as it did to get here and we were not in a hurry on our way here... THANK YOU DADDY!
