Merry Christmas!

XMAS 2009 - We decided to drive home to Atlanta area for the Christmas holidays. Good to see family and friends. All the cousins spoiled the little ones for sure! A long trip for 2 little ones. Occasionally had to pull over and throw out diapers out the window ;-) ! But the McTwins did well - I just need to learn to pack more efficiently! Great to see the Turner triplets as well. We almost had them rolling over - Aedan is very close!

HAPPY TURKEY DAY

No turkey yet- but the McTwins enjoyed a nice bottle of formula for their first Turkey Day! Nilda and Miguel also came by to share the fun! They are awaiting the pumpkin pie for next year for sure!

SITTING UP AND PLAYING

So the McTwins now have discovered each other and are sitting up and smiling and talking to each other!

1st HALLOWEEN

So we had many costumes bought for us! Couldn't decide which to use (scarecrows, pumpkins or bee's) - so we took a few different pictures of them at pumpkin patch and at home. This was merely for "our" entertainment - since they didn't go get any candy!

POSING FOR THE CAMERA

The McTwins are now very interactive and follow voices and smile with voice recognition. They are also already very spoiled! Aoife wants to be carried around 24/7 to look around! She wines if she isnt held up and walking around - even if you hold her and sit down - she knows it and squawks- which is not funny at 3am. Aedan is such a clm and happy baby and likes to entertain himself - luckily he hasn't learned the whinning technique from his sister yet to be picked up!

THANKS AGAIN

Now that we are "out of the woods" per se and have 2 healthy children - there are many people we would aslo like to thank again!! We really appreciated all the continued thoughts, prayers and support! We would like to give a special thanks to:

Infertility Clinic Staff- Dr. Retzloff, Dr. King, Dr. Robinson, and Federika
the coordinator.

NICU Staff, Chief Nurse Christina, and other staff members: nurse Cindy,
Amy social worker

Threads of Love staff, they provided the twins with blankets, bean bags,
hats, mittens, and hamper bags

OB High Risk Doctors: Dr. Fayette, Dr.Shields

All nurses in Labor & Delivery: Nurse Nina, Nurse Shannon, Nurse Donna,
Nurse Jan, Nurse Laura

BUSY FALL

So the McTwins are growing fast and reaching many milestones! Each seems to be the first in something - Aoife smiling and holding bottle and Aedan cooing and blowing bubbles. All the family loves to dress them up!
