Twins

Having twins has been an amazing experience! Before they were born people really scared us with all the horror stories...basically letting us know we would be exhausted beyond belief. Surprisingly, it wasn't that bad. The most tired and cranky I felt was before Ella came home and it was just Bradley and me. It was such a relief to have them both home and I was adamant about keeping them on a schedule. So, if one baby said they were hungry...they both ate! I'm almost thankful people made it seem like it would be worse than it actually was.
Ella and Bradley are so lucky to have each other! When they were newborns, they loved to cuddle and now that they are getting older they love to laugh together. It's true that they have some sort of twin telepathy. I wish I were a twin!

Great Grandparents

Our children are so lucky to have 4 great grandparents, including one complete set! Most of our family lives here in Colorado, but Matt's Grammy and Grampy reside in Georgia. Normally we visit every year in April, but this year we had 2 month old babies and weren't ready for such an adventure. Instead we planned our trip in October (which might become the new tradition because Georgia is beautiful this time of year).
A couple of days before the trip Bradley finally rolled from his back to his stomach and while we were visiting Grammy and Grampy he started doing the "log roll". I was so happy he waited, so they could see him hit this milestone!

Bradley was rolling all over the place!
