Learning to like veggies!

The girls started eating rice cereal a couple of weeks ago, and now they've moved on to green beans! Today was the first day of vegetables, and green beans was the first to try. Maleah loved the beans at first bite. Normally with the cereal the girls don't react so well with the first couple of bites until they get used to it, but the green beans were a wonderful new experience for Maleah. Madelyn however... it still took her a few bites to acquire the taste, but once she got going with it, she loved them as well. (Madelyn is in the first and third pictures down, and Maleah in the others.)

Also for another update... They went to the doctor for their four month checkup last week, and Madelyn weighs 13 lbs. 3.5 oz., and Maleah weighs 13 lbs. 7.5 oz! They are right on average for where full term babies would be at this point. I have prayed all along that there would be no evidence that they were premature, and they have been an answer to that prayer! They are not only on track for their weight, but also developmentally. I'm very proud of my girls!

Just a reminder...

Don't feel forced or anything, but Maranda and I love getting feedback and stories of your own left on our blog as well. So please feel free to leave comments!

Easter Morning

One of our first mornings back to church and it took about 2 hours to get us all ready! In the pictures, Madelyn is on the left in the sleeveless dress and Maleah is on the right.

We attempted to get pictures before church, and you can see our success... One would smile while the other pitched a fit, and by the time the camera would take the picture, they were both mad.

It was really cold here on Easter morning. Below is a picture of Maleah where we had to bundle them up.
We all had a great Easter day, and hopefully next year it will be much warmer so they can try their hands at hunting some eggs.
