Twin Treats :) 20-21 wks

Yesterday Knox & Sloane were 21 weeks old! They will be 5 months old this next week!!

 They are just as cute as can be! We are quite fond of them.

They are giggling, smiling, squealing, rolling over, mocking us, holding hands.

We laugh and laugh at them everyday.

Yesterday they had an off up time in between naps and were both kind of fussy. That wasn't too fun. It's really not often that they both get whiny.  I figured they were tired or hungry and since they had eaten good, I put them down for their nap about 15 minutes early and they were out like a light until it was time to wake. Growing babies!

My guess is they are close to about 13 pounds each. Sloane is still a bit bigger, but I really think Knox is catching up!

They are still sleeping good and last night was their first night not to be swaddled and to be in their own cribs. They did SO good. We are so proud of them. Sloane was asleep before Brent and I made it down the stairs and Knox wiggled for a while but made no noise. We left their room about 8pm and Sloane was the first to make a peep, but not until 6:30! So relieved. I was expecting it to be rough. They did wiggle around a bit more throughout the night when I would look over at the monitor, but I hope they continue to adjust well.

We are going to continue to try and swaddle them for their naps as we've been told that adjustment can be quite a bit more difficult.

Knox has still been stuffy and congested, but actually this morning was the first he hasn't started coughing about 5am. So maybe that has passed. Hopefully!

A few people asked after I posted the room thermometer we got, I did get an Angel Care monitor with the temp, so that will be nice to have. I'll be able to see the temp downstairs on the monitor. We will prob just leave the room one in there, though, so we can check it while up there :)

Knox is SUCH a wiggle worm! He is all over the place. He isn't crawling of course, but he pushes himself. On the activity gym, he always turns on his side and gets as close to Sloane as he can, with his feet on her, or he will put his legs up on the gym. It's so funny. 

You all have seen lots of pictures over the past two weeks, but here are just a few more ;) I'll upload some videos soon.

Getting all snug in their new sleep sacks :) Sloane's cheeks always start getting rosey about 5-6, but I do think my phone makes both of their cheeks always look redder than they really are.

It looks like there is a blanket or something on the bottom of Knox, but it's just his sack.

Can you tell this was a bittersweet moment for me? haha.

How funny are these? For Christmas, some of our family got Sloaney this fun outfit from Baby Gap. Too cute! Knox's outfit was a bit small, but I thought it matched Sloane's well :) She was really rubbing her eyes before I took these pictures, so they are pretty red looking. Not to mention, I might have slid her hat down once or twice on accident.

My camera settings were off at first, but this picture looks cool..

Here they are yesterday. We wore puppy clothes because we were missing Elton. He will be home next week after he recovers from his surgery!

My brother got them some fun Arkansas blankets for Christmas! They also fold up and make pillows. Very cool.

My cousin made the babies these adorable hats!!! Knox's is starting to get a bit snug, but I can probably loosen it up some. They are pretty cute in hats, I must say.

I mean, seriously? look at that face....

 

It's kind of weird to see them with a flash on them, huh? You can see all their little hair :) I swear Sloane's is looking more dark red! I need to post a picture of her party in the back. That's where she has the most hair.

We all love bath time :)

 

I think Knox looks so cute in his stretchies...

Sloane's favorite toy, her feet...

They got this turtle for Christmas and they love it. They push on the buttons and stuff..

Happy Saturday :)
