Week 7

Our wiggle worms!  These two are constantly moving!

The twins just continued to grow in week 7!  When we went in for a weight check, Aiden weighed 8 lbs. 9 oz., and Owen weighed 9 lbs. 8 oz.  It is amazing to see how both boys are growing, but it is especially amazing to see Aiden slowly catch up to his brother!

Friday night was extra special for the twins; they met their family from Indiana!  We were so blessed the following visitors popped in: Great Uncle Mike and Great Aunt Cindy, Great Uncle Steve, cousins Meredith and John Michael, and Great Aunt Maureen.  My Aunt Maureen spent all of Friday evening with us.  She brought us several meals, including a delicious breakfast, as well as great company.  We enjoyed talking and sharing laughs with her while she loved on our boys!  She is one of the kindest, most giving souls I know, and I am so thankful she is my aunt.  On Sunday, the boys helped Grandpa Storrer celebrate his birthday!

During this week, we just tried to soak up every moment.  As both boys (but especially Owen) catch up to that 10 pound mark, I can sense that the true newborn phase is ending for us.  As I hold the boys, I am simply in awe of how their wrinkly skin they left the hospital with has transformed into fuller and chubbier legs, arms, and cheeks.  Their noises, sounds, and screams continue to grow louder and louder.  The smiles are continually becoming more frequent, and each day they are growing stronger.  What a gift it is to have the honor of witnessing, helping, and nurturing their growth every single day!  

Happy Birthday, Grandpa Storrer!

Aiden is smiling more and more everyday - and they are just the sweetest smiles!


Oh my heart!!!  Moments like these fill me up with love and joy! 

That face!  And that hair!

Sending selfies to Nana and Grandpa!  We are missing them while they enjoy some time in Florida!

Super cute smiles from Owen!


I was thrilled when the boys enjoyed story time with me!  I read two books to them, and they were as happy and content as could be!  I had to document the moment!


Fun facial expressions from our expressive littles!
