Spring is here!

Yaay to the sun! We were starting to get a little stir crazy in the house :)

Sammy had his eye appointment yesterday, they are looking stable and progressing well.  

We are starting to notice he is tracking with his eyes now which makes us very hopeful.

All the babies are getting more alert by the day, looking around and discovering new things.  Elsie has been really freaked out by her hand.  She'll be looking around and notice her hand and she'll jump back startled and then just give it dirty looks for a few minutes.  Very entertaining. 

They continue to get to spend more time interacting with each other which is awesome.  Now that they are slowly getting passed their reflux, they can lay on their backs more and talk and touch each other. 

This week's pics go group, then Elsie, Sammy, Danny, then videos. 
Extra pics of Elsie as promised :)

Elsie

This is what I like to call the puke zone.  I put a blanket under her and over her and a big bib in hopes that if she upchucks her feed I don't have to wash the whole chair down and change her outfit.  About 60% effective. 

This is her opening day outfit!  Go Sox!

This is her 'I won't throw up, I won't throw up, I won't throw up' face

Mommy's favorite outfit!

Making faces at Mommy

Sammy

Lili saw Elsie's bottle and decided she was going to feed Sammy with it.  He was cooperative and took one for the team :)

Posing with his cousin Lili

He now looks at you and the camera!

Watching the Masters

Selfie with Mommy

He is so peaceful when he is sleeping

'Hi Mom!  Look I can almost roll off the boppy!'

Here is Lili feeding Sammy.  She's pretty good for a 2yo

Here is one of those 'bad parenting' moments.  I put Sammy on the boppy.  He pushes himself up and over, and instead of running to the rescue, I start videoing instead. The last 10 seconds are awesome.

Elsie dancing out of her seat

Bad parenting moment #2 this week.  Danny can't find his hands?  Get the video going!

Fidgety Feet!

All the babies are moving and shaking! They love to just lay on a blanket with each other and kick their feet and look around. They also really enjoy being with each other. If someone is fussing,  I put them all on the floor and they perk up being able to talk, touch, smack, grab, and kick each other :) 

The big smiles are continuing, and now even come with little giggles. Babies are also enjoying all the things they can do with their hands, and are doing a lot of grabbing whatever is in their reach.

Everyone is doing well gaining weight. Danny weighed in at 12 lbs 4 oz, Sammy at 11 lbs 15 oz, and Elsie at 11 lbs 8 oz.  

  

They are also sleeping well! They slept until 6:30 this morning :)  That is a nine hour stretch and we will take it! 

We are all looking forward to the weather breaking so we can get out and enjoy the sunshine. We were able to go on one really long walk this week, but most days have still been a little too windy and chilly for the kiddos yet. 

I put all the group pictures first, then Danny, Elsie, Sammy, then videos.

I realize I don't have that many of Elsie this week, will get more of her for next week :)
