We had my dear friend Nikki Williams do the boys first professional haircut. Jacob went first and I held him. Luke got to sit in Christian's lap for his.
They have officially had their first set of "School Daze" pictures taken. I had to snap a picture of the proofs so that Christian could see them while he was out of town....
I might add that they have officially been moved up to the Toddler room at school. No more infant bottles, and now they have a set 2 hour nap time every day.
Here are a couple of shot from our vacation. The boys did wonderfully during the 5-6 hours drive to get there! Basically one meltdown in each direction. My parents were wonderful and rode with me so that we could take turns sitting in the back seat to entertain them.
In the top left, that is Luke - he didn't like the cold tile floor in our condo so he did the modified crawl. This is also the last pictures of the boys using bottles. Right after this trip, I changed them over to sippy cups.

Yup, you guessed it - we FINALLY have a tooth coming through!
10 months old while on his first vacation to Branson, MO - Jacob has his first tooth. Luke will have his first tooth break through about 3 weeks from now.
Luke is my particular son of the two. If he doesn't like a food because of it's texture or taste, he has an obvious wiggle n' shake that makes it clear something isn't right. We are just offering him water in the video - and he can't seem to figure out what about it he doesn't like.
Our precious twin boys - Luke & Jacob arrived 7 weeks early on November 22, 2009. My hope is to be able to share their life with our friends and family near and far and keep track of their milestones through this blog.

Christian and I were married on December 27, 2008 and by May of 2009 we were expecting what we thought would be our first child. By 9 weeks, we discovered that we were expecting twins! My great-grandmother had sisters that were twins (almost 9lbs at full term); so I expect that our boys are classified under the genetic side.
