Grant Squared: March 2009

Tuesday, March 31, 2009

The babies will be 3 months old on April 3rd. They are getting to be more fun every day and they are starting to look and act more like people. Charlotte likes to "talk" and smile. Logan smiles and is starting to "talk." He has really strong legs and loves to stand up. Logan has a temper and cries huge tears within seconds of getting upset.

Logan weighs 10 1/2 pounds and Charlotte weights 9 1/2 pounds.

I am having so much fun dressing Logan and Charlotte! They received a lot of cute baby clothes. It must be nice to have new outfits to wear all the time!

This month has been a month of firsts - first trip to Kevin's hockey game, first time they wore shoes, Charlotte's first pair of jeans, went to church as a family for the first time, went to Auntie Laura's softball game.

Logan and Charlotte are 2 months old now! They are much more alert and want to be held all of the time. Our slings have been really helpful for carrying the babies. Charlotte is learning to "talk" to us. Both Logan and Charlotte are starting to smile! They are definitely getting bigger. Logan is almost 9 pounds and Charlotte is about 7 1/2 pounds.

There is absolutely no way I could go back to work right now. I am taking a leave of absence for the rest of the school year. It's really difficult to care for Logan and Charlotte alone right now. We are grateful for lots of help that we're getting, especially from my mom and my grandparents. Kevin's mom and my sisters have also been great help. Kevin stays home on Fridays to help me. I don't know what I'd do without all of these people!

In other news, Kevin has been doing really well at hockey. He has had 4 goals and many assists so far this season. Hopefully the babies and I can go see him play soon.

Here are Logan & Charlotte at 2 months.
