a visit to the doc

eli and stella had their two month check ups on monday. they also got their first shots. it's so sad to see band-aids on their cute chubby thighs. eli weighs 12 lbs 2 oz, stella weighs 11 lbs 4 oz and they are both 24" long. nice and healthy!

some tinker shots

caught in the act

check out the spit up in action...what a shot!

smiles!

here are the faces that make all the hard work worthwhile!! check out the eli dimple...so cute.

lucky stella

stella and eli are very lucky to have such a patient and sweet big sister. we are trying to get the babies used to taking a bottle, and lena is doing a great job helping out!

wonder-dad!

here is chris trying out our new "maximom" twin carrier. this thing is quite the contraption. although eli's face looks a little distressed, they actually do like this!

wide eyes

more bathtime fun

there's something about babies in the bath that is just so cute, eh? (top photo is eli, bottom photo is stella)

mama's favorite dance

here's a photo of lena doing my favorite dance. it involves hunching down and moving your arms back and forth while making extremely goofy faces.

well, ok, head up. stella can almost do it, too, but not for the camera!
