Merry Christmas!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas Day. Our Christmas started last night at my Grandparent Medlin's House or as we call them Mamaw Klue and Papaw Dank. We had a great time and enjoyed getting to see the family, the only thing missing was my Uncle Greg and Uncle Ronny. It's just not Christmas without the whole family there. :( Christmas has been alot more special this year since the boys are here. I guess it seems more magical. I know that, that sounds corney but hey what else can I say?

Santa came to our house last night and brought us lots of goodies. Last year Jason and I decided to start having our own little Christmas on Christmas morning before going to my other grandparents house, that way we have time to celebrate Christmas with just our family.
The boys were alot of fun, not that they were able to do anything, but it made Christmas more exciting! The are growing so fast, Colton is starting to smile all the time and Ben can roll over from his stomach to his back. They can both ALMOST roll over, they just can't figure out how to get that leg over, but soon enough it will happen. :)

This is one of the hats the boys got for Christmas.... can you tell by Ben facial expression that he doesn't like it very much? LOL!!!!

These cute reindeer outfits came from my sorority sister Ruth, she also has twins and her children couldn't wear them anymore so she hooked a sister up. THANKS RUTH!!!!

2009 Christmas Card


This is our family Christmas Card/Birth Annoucement for 2009. I decided to combine the two since the boys were born so close to Christmas. This is an Emily Roberts special, I designed it myself. If I knew I could make a living at it I would love to do this for a career. Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!

7 weeks old

Time is flying by and I don't know how to make it stop. It seems like just yesterday that I was completely & miserably pregnant and was begging to have the babies. Now I wake up and they are already 7 weeks old. They are growing so fast and literally changing daily.
COLTON & BEN
People keep telling us that they can't tell them apart and of course I get the... are they identical or fraternal question. Personally, I don't think they look anything a like, don't get me wrong you can tell that they are brother, but that's about it. There personalities are very different to.
BEN
Ben is very easy going, but is more whinny of the two. He thinks he needs to be held all of the time. That is thanks to me mother, she spoils him "ROTTEN." He loves for people to talk to him, he will look at you like he completely understands what you are saying. He also loves to be read to. My mom reads to him book after book and he will just stare at her while she is reading. Ben is still smaller than Colton. I think Ben is just going to be a smaller framed person. He is still wearing newborn size clothes & diapers compared to Colton who is wearing 0-3 months and size 1 diapers. I really think that Ben is getting ready to have a growing spurt because he has started having feeding times where he can eat up to 7 oz like his brother did a couple of weeks ago. Colton has now gone back to normal and eats 4 oz regularly.
COLTON
In the beginning everyone thought that Colton looked just like Jason, but as he gets older he is starting to look just like my baby pictures, fat cheeks and all. Ben is starting to look more like Jason. They are the most beautiful little boys I've ever seen. I think they get more beautiful by the second. Watch out little girls, I've got to heart breakers on my hands. :)Colton is very mellow except when he's hungry, then he just down right has a temper. I know that he gets that from me. He is very dramatic when he's mad he kicks his feet like he's stomping and he has even started to cry real tears. He get so worked up.

I had to go to the doctor the other day to have my infusion for my crohn's, which is a three hour event, the babies were so good the entire time I was there that some of the nurses didn't even know that I had babies in there. The boys are great in public and when other people are around, but they let there mommy and daddy see their true colors when they are alone. :)
BEN & COLTON
These are the outfits I bought on e-bay for around $10 together. I'm so proud of my self for that. Problem is they want get to wear them long. Colton's is already getting tight. :0
"THE FORMULA"
My friend Ginny called me one morning and told me that Wal-mart had my formula on sale for a unbelievable price so she came and watched the boys while I stocked up. Originally this formula is $11.97 a can and they had it on sale for $4.50 a can. It doesn't expire until 01/2011. They had ordered way to much so they were just trying to get rid of it. I bought 72 cans and my mom went back and bought 60 more. Need less to say, I have formula bought for the next 10 months. Right now I am going through about a can a day. This was just to good of a deal to pass up. I saved $986.00 on formula. Holy Moly... is that a savings or what?

"GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES"
Ben & Colton
The boys have started lifting their heads and trying to roll over. At least attempting to. Colton is better at the head control thing, but Ben is better at trying to roll over. You have to watch out for Colton because he will head butt you.
Colton
Ben (think he will be rolling over first.)
Ben
It's Superman and his side kick..... I think Colton thinks he can fly. LOL!!!

I promise I will start writing more in my blogs, I've just been a little tied up lately. At least I'm showing you pictures.

ROLL TIDE ROLL

My husband is a huge Alabama, Crimson Tide Fan, so he is in absolute heaven since they are #2 in the Nation and is currently playing for the SEC Championship against Florida. In the words of my dear husband "ROLL TIDE ROLL!"

Here are some pictures of the BAMA support in our household...

Jason drove all the way to Tuscaloosa, AL to get the boys some Alabama attire.

Lets just hope that BAMA wins and gets to play in the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP as # 1 in the nation!!!!
