These are just some pictures of Ava, Griffin and Crew from the last few weeks! Griffin and Crew

Ava giving Crew a hug.

This is how feeding time goes. Ava still wants her bottle when the boys eat, so we have three bottles to make most of the time. It gets pretty crazy!

Ellie and Ava giving luvs!


One of Ava's first steps. She is doing so good, she will be walking on her own any day!

Ava wanted to help papa vacuum. It wasn't actually any help but she thought it was fun to have a ride anyway.

Two binki's are better than one?

Sleepover

Last week Lacey and the kids came to sleepover! The kids slept in the basement while Lacey helped me take care of the boys during the night! Chris decided to make cookies at 10:30 with the kids. I think Madi was the only one who was actually still awake by the time the cookies were done!

Happy 1st Birthday Ava

Ava had her 1st birthday on the 10th. I can't believe how time flies. It seems like yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital. She is such a joy to us and we are so glad that she is part of our family. Happy Birthday Ava!

Ava and dad putting together the doll house.

Ava with her baby brothers. She isn't so sure about them quite yet. She just points and laughs when they cry or make noise.

Home At Last

Griffin and Crew joined us at home last Saturday after their two week stay in the NICU. Both are doing great! We are glad to have our family all in the same place. Our family has certainly grown greatly over the past year and a half for which we feel so blessed and grateful to have these little spirits in our home!

Mazie has mastered holding both of them at the same time. Way to go Mazie!

Boys Bathtime

We got to give the little guys a bath for the first time last night. Their facial expressions the whole time were so funny! We were laughing! Then they got their pj's on and wrapped up in the blanket together for bedtime. We can already tell that this is definately going to be an adventure for us!

Together Again

Griffin and Crew are together in the same crib now that all their tubes are out of their belly. I think Griffin might want his own bed back soon although because Crew is a little more restless and moves around often. However, I guess they are already used to being next to one another. Griffin seems to be quite a bit more mellow! We'll see if it's true later on!

Ava has a little spot in the corner at the hospital to play, she got to see her brothers through the window for the first time today! She just pointed and said uh, uh!

She enjoys playing around with the wheelchair in the hall!

The Boys Have Arrived

The boys were born on September 23rd at 2:05 and 2:07 am. Crew weighed 5lbs. 7oz., and Griffin weighed 5lbs. 6oz. Both are 19 inches long. They are in the NICU for a couple of weeks until they figure out eating and a couple of things but both are doing great! Baby Griffin
