Pictures by Shelly

These black & whites were taken by my friend Shelly. The twins had their shots that day, so considering the pain they were in, they did great. I think they all turned out really good. Man, I love these sweet kids!

2 MONTHS ALREADY!!

I can't believe the twins are 2 months old today!
Time has flown by and I love being home with our children. Miles and Macy are staying awake a lot more during the day which makes it more rewarding. They are both smiling but it's hard to catch a real one. They have brought such joy into our lives and I don't want them to grow too fast!


sometimes you just have to use the paci, they were getting sick of the photo shoot









WE GOT OUR FIRST SNOW!! The kids finally got our first snowfall of the year. Fruita had 3 in. and we had a blast playing and then coming in for hot chocolate.







We decided to head to Salt Lake last weekend to bless the twins with family and friends. Matt's blessings were really wonderful and inspired by the spirit. The pictures were at the end of sacrament and Miles and Macy were tired and hungry. So I kept clicking anyway.....making memories right? Anyway, these are our beautiful children and we do feel so blessed to have them all in our lives.

Our Thanksgiving was really nice except for the flu that plagued our house this week. We opted for a ham this year. It was great and Matt of course made a great meal.
We were really happy that Aunt Stefani could visit us for the holiday weekend. She was a great help with the babies and of course all the kids (including Matt and I) enjoyed having her.






Poor Em was throwing up most of the day. She was a trooper though


This is the twins first day at church. They did great, but I have to say I spent a good part in the mother's room. The older kids loved helping out, Morgan carried Macy into church for us while Matt carried a sleeping Em.






This was on their checkup day. Miles weighed 6 lb. 10 oz. and Macy topped him off at 7 lb. 4 oz. Thanks to the Crowson fam for the cute matching outfits.

One month ago today......more sweet toesies entered our lives

My friend, Shelley, came over and we got some great pics of the M&M's
please excuse the pacifiers....you'll see what happens without them

pretty good close up



our sweets



Mom being mean and trying to get pic without pacifiers



taking pictures became totally boring


done for the day







Em wanted part of the fun








Ethan's birthday at Chuck E. Cheese was a fun time had for all. Well, I'm sure Miles and Macy had no idea what was going on. Ethan invited 2 friends and our family adds 7 people. I can't believe my little boy is 5!
Happy Birthday E!!
While everyone was watching Ethan open presents.....Em was helping herself to the cake. I guess she wanted to make sure it was good for everyone else.







We let Ethan cut the cake this year. Everyone got a huge piece thanks to him.




And of course the presents were fun



While Dad handed out presents, took pictures and managed the chaos...Mom sat with the tater tots.
