Happy Easter!

Happy Easter from Natlie and Amanda!! The weather here was lovely today. We had a great brunch and an awesome dinner. The girls looked fabulous in their stylish dresses (thank you AGAIN Carol, Jerry and Kelly!!). Natalie and Amanda also enjoyed coloring Easter eggs and loved their Easter baskets , as well as their cute and cuddly little bunnies that were left at the door by the friendly neighborhood Easter Bunny! THANK YOU Easter Bunny!


Here are the girls resting in their cute dresses. (Of course, we tried HARD to catch them awake and happy at the same time, but it's tough!!)



BUT, here they are individually happy as clams. Check out Natlie posing for the shot and below her is smiley Amanda:

Happy St. Patrick's Day from Natalie and Amanda!

More props to the Kinlocks for helping Natalie and Amanda celebrate their first St. Patty's Day in style!! Here they are:









I also shot this video by accident. It's very short but cute! Happy St. Patty's Day!

10 Weeks Old

The time is flying by!! Natalie and Amanda are already 10 weeks old! They are growing like weeds and they are smiling and laughing a lot. It's a lot of fun! They're also learning how to sleep in their cribs....that's not so much fun!! Here is a photo of Natalie and Amanda at 10 weeks in the cutest outfits from the Kinlocks. Thank you Kinlocks!!

Grandparents Are The Best



Natalie and Amanda are soooo lucky to have wonderful grandparents who have all traveled to California to spend time with them. Here's what Natalie has to say about the topic:




Of course, she loves her grandpa too! Here are some photos of the girls with Grandma and Grandpa Totten:








Grandma Totten is in heaven on the rocker with both girls:






And Grandma Tholstrup just arrived from Tennessee. Here she is holding Amanda and Natalie is in the background.





Yeah for grandparents!!

Another Weigh In

We had a doctor appointment on Monday of this week. Natalie weighed in at 10 lbs 4 oz and is now 22 inches and Amanda weighed in at 7 lbs 14 oz and is 21 and 1/4 inches. They are changing so much it's hard to believe!! Here is a photo taken earlier this week at nearly 9 weeks old.



Morning Smiles

The girls are mostly happy and cheerful in the morning when they first wake up so it's one of my favorite times. Here is a video of them I shot this morning. Amanda is full of smiles and, once again, she likes putting her hand in Natalie's face. Natalie is a bit grouchy because she had already been up for awhile and was ready to go back down for a nap. One of these days, I'll catch one of Natalie's cute smiles on camera too!

8 Weeks Old!

Natalie and Amanda are already 8 weeks old! Time flies when we're all having so much fun!! I've been a little slow on the blogging lately due to our move back into our newly remodeled home, but I will go back and catch up soon since the girls had a great visit from their Grandma and Grandpa Totten! They were so much help for the move -- there is no way we could have managed without them. In the interim, here are some recent photos of the girls at 8 weeks:



Here is Amanda playing on the Gymini. She LOVES it!





And here is Natalie just chilling out:




Both girls are smiling a lot now, but they're hard to catch on camera. Here is Amanda showing us a glimpse!
