The Many Adventures of Shea & Wes: Happy New Years, Happy 3 month Birthday,and Miscellaneous

Welcome 2011. 2010 was filled for so many amazing things for us. We are so grateful to be blessed with 2 of the best babies ever. They are so good and Rob and I can not imagine only having one (or none for that matter). We are so glad we decided to do invitro and that it worked the first time and we got twins. We seriously don't know what we would do without these two wonderful little ones.

Shea and Wes went and got their last Synagis shot on Wednesday the 29th. Wes is up to 13.5 lbs!! and Shea is up to 8.85 - she will be topping 9 lbs before we know it. Wes eats 6 oz's every feeding and Shea eats just over 3 oz's each feeding. Shea is still in newborn close (getting close to moving up to 0-3 month sizes) and Wes is very close to being in 6 month sizes!! Both babies handled the shots well (well after the initial shot of course). We also purchase the baby Einstein videos - Baby Mozart and Baby Bach. I would have to say we have a little "cousin Tom" on our hands with Wesley - he is a tv nut!!! Shea on the other hand not so much. Wes also remains our cuddler and Shea prefers not to be cuddled. It is so cute to watch their different personalities emerge.

New Years Eve was spent having a sleep over with the Ekborg Boys - Cousin Connor (11), Will (8), and Jed (5). We also had Uncle Andy and Aunt Michelle and Cousin Sadie and Simon (also Twins!! who are 10). We had a great night although we didn't see much of Will and Simon as they gamed it up in the basement!! Cousins Connor and Sadie are so good with Shea and Wes - it is awesome to see what great cousins Shea and Wes have and how close they will be to them!!

Here are some picks to wrap up the end of the new year:

Rob making Root Beer floats with Connor & Sadie

Cousin Jed eating his root beer float

Cousin Jed who slept in his fort Uncle Rob built

Uncle Andy playing Wii Resort with Rob - Action shot ;)

Cousin Sadie, Shea, and Connor

Shea with her Blanket from Cousin Connor - she loves it!!

Shea's hands are always cold so Rob was warming them up - I think this picture is so funny!

Shea in her cute hat one of my buyers made for her (Wes has one in blue)

Uncle Kevin - also known as Shea's Godfather!! and Shea - we love this picture

Shea and Wes also turned 3 months on New Years day so we of course had to take a lot of pictures (they will hate me when they are older for this and Wes wasn't the happiest to start the day but then got into it)!!
