Photo opp with the kids

Finally a picture with mommy! Usually I'm the one behind the camera so I asked Josh to take a few. I do exist! I think the last pictures of me holding the kids was from the hospital.

4 months and counting! The kids are always doing something new at this stage. Campbell is very good at grabbing her feet and ankles. She also has mastered the lifting of the head thing. Tate on the other hand is more advanced in the sitting up skill. Summer Back at church let us borrow her Bumbo and Tate is loving it! It's interesting to have 2 children at the same age. You learn that they do things at different times. Just because they are both 4 months does not mean they learn the same things at the same time. I think Campbell will crawl first, but Tate will probably walk first. Just a guess.

Campbell's new wardrobe

Thanks to Nana Smith, Campbell has become quite the fashion statement. She needed 3-6month outfits and loves showing them off. Thanks Nana!

2 Babies ?!

Occasionally this happens. Both babies need to be held at the same time! Josh and I have both mastered this art form. It is getting harder since they are gaining weight.

Gatlinburg reunion

Can't you feel the excitement?!

If you aren't already overstimulated, feel free to peruse the folder for additional photos.

Seriously, it was great to see everyone again and look forward to doing it again next year. Thanks to everyone who relieved our burden for a few brief moments (sorry for any spit-up, but you probably expected it).
Love,
Josh, Racheal,Tate & Campbell

14 weeks and counting . . .

I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

The hammock

I just had to share these. The boys were just chillin' in the hammock at my parent's house.

Memorial Day

Well, I'm finally catching up on my blogging. Josh mentioned I was behind. We had a good Memorial holiday. I was off work and we went to my parents for the day. Uncle Justin finally met the twins! At least one of their uncle Justins (they have 2).
The twins are now 3 months and they are sleeping through the night. I mean 9:30-10pm all the way until 6:30-7am! They've been working up to it the last couple weeks. We have had a full 2 weeks of it (knock on wood) and Josh and I are thankful. We actually feel like new people again. We almost forgot what sleeping 7-8 consecutive hours felt like! And it has been great since I've started working again. I can't imagine being back to work and not sleeping.

Purple and lovin' it!

Campbell finally got to wear her purple bow. We didn't have a purple dress until one of my family gave us this cute little one. Thanks guys, she looks fabulous! It's a nice change of pace from all the pink.
