So I guess I am a little behind on this.  The boys have been keeping me  pretty busy as I love spending time with them.  They are both growing like weeds.  When we went to their 2 month check up on the 19th Angelo weighed 10lb 3oz and Lorenzo weighed 8lb 10oz, doctor said everything looked really good and they are doing great.  I know I am pretty happy with what they weigh as my cousin's baby who was born a week before these guys was 12lbs at her 2 month check up and my other cousin's baby who was born a week after was 11lbs at her 2 month check up.  I know I can't compare because they are twins and they are preemies but I think I always will and it will just give me some guideline to see how they are developing also even though it don't matter I will ALWAYS love my boys.  I can not imagine my life without them now.

The boys love it outdoors!  Which makes me very happy because I love it outdoors during the summer also(not this summer though too HOT!)  So yesterday we went to Lake Vermilion to visit my dad who is camping there after camping in Yankton for a couple days.  Mom can't go this time because her company was bought out and they are in training.

Sometimes I just stop and think of how blessed we really are and get overwhelmed with all the love that these babies have brought to our lives and how many other people truly love them also.  We have been very blessed by everything people have been giving us.  I told Chris the other night I felt bad because we hadn't really bought them anything even clothes because we have been given everything.  But I did go buy them some matching outfits for the showers that family and friends are going to be having.  I guess we will just save our money for when we need to start buying them things or when we need different car seats because they are too big for the carriers.

I am going back to work on August 6th, so last night I decided that I needed to start getting into a routine of getting ready for work and getting the boys ready.  This morning I had to go get some more formula so I thought I would also do the drive to the babysitters and then to work to see how long it is really going to take me.  I was surprised didn't take me near as long as I thought it would. 
So I think we will do that a couple more times next week, just so I can really judge my timing.  Hopefully the boys will be on a similar schedule once we start that but we will just adjust as long as I know how long it takes.  I am hoping that I will be able to work 4 1/2 days a week (before I worked 4) and that way I can have one afternoon off to go get supplies and such while they are still at daycare as it is much easier than trying to do it with them and this winter I don't want to take them in the cold as much as possible.  I also want my weekends to be with them.  Guess we will see what happens the first couple of weeks back at work brings.

We did have the boys pictures taken last weekend so hopefully I will get those this weekend so I can post some on here for you to see.

Don't know how much time I will be able to blog in the next month as it is pretty busy starting this afternoon as we have our first home visit with our social worker and then Sunday is first baby shower, Monday we have visit with birth father and supper with some friends, need to get my hair highlighted and cut, Sunday have to take Amber and her family to the airport to go to Florida and  2nd baby shower, Monday back to work, Sunday have another family function, then the next Sunday we have another baby shower and my nephews birthday party and the following Saturday we are going to have the boys baptized.


Thank you to everyone for their love and support during this journey.  We truely appreciate it all.
