Saith & Neva: 3 months! {Personal}


These are the precious little beings that occupy all my spare minutes, that make me sleep deprived for nearly 4 months, and that give so, so much joy and love to our lives . . .
they've been busy eating...,er... growing!

Of the (literally) thousands of photos I've taken of these two, I have barely had the chance to edit any.
But here are some of their 3 month photos


My little man is just full of expressions for the camera...




"Mom..who do you think you are takin these pictures?"


Typically, one of the twins is good and the other starts fussing...


Little Neva just has the cutest girly squeal ever..she looooves to smile and talk.
She remains about 3 pounds lighter than her twin.




Finally, both caught looking at the camera!




I'm left wondering how moms handle more children!  But they are such an amazing blessing and cannot believe sometimes that we are just too lucky to get two and once to love....and love and love and love!!!!

I best be getting some rest...
the twinnies just went to sleep and the clock starts ticking immediately for when they wake up again...
any advice for how to get them to sleep thru the night? I am all ears :)

Good night from northern MN from the twinnies and I...

Hi Jen! Such a fun update, love seeing the pictures of your beautiful babies! Those of us moms with other kids but only one baby sit and wonder how *you* do it!! No great tips on the whole sleeping thing, that's definitely not a strong point of mine when it comes to babies...but i'll send good vibes your way for great sleepers ;)

Your babes are so adorable! Those blue, blue eyes...love 'em! Saith definately looks like his dad's family. As for the sleep, does swaddling help?

The twins are adorable and definitely looking older! My recommendations are reading Baby Wise and Happiest Baby on the Block. Both have helpful tips and even if they don't work, sometimes its nice to have things to try!

Jen- those twins are growing up fast!! You are doing an awesome job, Keep it up!! :) They are adorable!! Keep staying positive and if you ever need help, you are surrounded by loving friends and family who would L.O.V.E to help out!! You won't be considered weak by asking for help, You will be considered StRoNg (something i have learned recently) As for sleeping tips, the only tip I have found for my babies that works, is once they reach 6 months,teach them to self soothe!! Until then, hang in there!! Those months will come fast enough!! You are a strong woman, Jen!! Lots of Love!!

So fun to meet and hold those little angels! They are growing so quickly ~ hopefully it won't be long before they are both sleeping the same schedule and allowing you to get some rest. Patience is a blessing!

Oh, I actually said "awwwww" out loud when I saw that second picture. Then I giggled about the third one. Your babies are PRECIOUS. And I agree wholeheartedly with Vicky. It takes a little bit to learn to ask for help. Then when you do, it's like- why didn't I do this sooner?

Hope you get some rest!
