Since it's been about a week since I last posted on my blog, the following photos of Mason and Ike will show them in a completely different light. No longer do they just sleep, feed and cry all with their eyes closed. Now they spend most of the days with their beautiful eyes wide open staring at their surroundings. It's been neat for Brooks and I to try to project what their personalities are now that they seem like actual 'babies.' As of a doctors visit last Friday, Ike was 11 lbs. 2 oz. and Mason was 11 lbs. even. You can see from the glamour shots that they have both been feeding well.
In terms of their behavior, there has been a definite flip flop when it comes to throwing tantrums. Ike has really come into his own over the last week and seems a lot more comfortable in his surroundings. As a result, he doesn't cry as much and he sleeps more peacefully. It's good to see that his acid reflux is starting to subside every so slightly. Mason, on the other hand, has become our little drama queen. She is the twin that now seems to cry now for no apparent reason. I think it's because she needs constant stimulation. Brooks and I joke that she is a six-week old who thinks she should be treated like she's three months old.I promise there will be more frequent posts from now own!!! We all head to Litchfield Beach on Saturday (even Simba too) for a week with Brooks' family, so there will be plenty of new photos to share.
Almost forgot - my cousin Bennett Patella had a baby boy this morning. His name is David Hunt Patella and they're calling him Hunt. He weighed 7 lbs. The last photo in the sequence below is a photo of Hunt.
