We are one!!!!

I can't believe it is already come and gone, the twins turned 1on July 6th!  It is truly amazing how quickly the time has flown by... 1 year ago we were in the NICU watching our early birds grow and now they are healthy 1 year olds.  Linley Grace is weighing in at 17.3 lbs (5th percentile), and 27 3/4" (10th percentile) while Caden measured 19.6 lbs (10th percentile) and 28" (10th percentile).  They are semi eating table food... Linley will eat anything you put in front of her and Caden will eat some of what you put in front of him if he feels like it.  We still eat a little bit of baby food and we are drinking 50/50 whole milk and formula... Linley Grace thought she liked the whole milk for 2 days and then changed her mind so we had to move to the 50/50... soon we will try the 75/25 and then hopefully we will be on to 100% whole milk.  Such big kids!  They are also amazing furniture cruisers... Linley is even trying her hand at standing on her own.

Caden LOVES his daddy... much to the dismay of all others in the room who he refuses to be held by if daddy is around.  Thank goodness Trip is gone in the mornings or Caden would never come see me.  Linley Grace on the other hand is definitely a mommy's girl... thank goodness one of them is on my side!

We had a first birthday celebration the following weekend with family and a few close friends.  We had a great time, amazing how much entertainment can come from a few blow up pools in the back yard.
