Life at the Lees

We have officially been a family of four for 2 months & 2 days.  The first few weeks were rough but we made it through and every week it seems to get a tiny bit easier.
The boys are getting too big!  I struggle to remember what it was like holding them those first few days after we brought them home.  A close friend told me to cherish every second, the good and the bad, because they grow so fast and we can never get these first few months/weeks back...I am now starting to see it and already it is breaking my heart.

Ethan is pretty chill, he only cries if he is hungry, wet/dirty or bored.  He is more independent than his brother and although they both HATE tummy time I can usually get him to do it the longest. 
Elijah is extremely high maintenance, I am convinced he has figured out how to "fake cry" in order to get me to hold him and would love to live in a world where mommy and daddy could hold him 24/7.  Unfortunately being a twin its not in his cards but we give him as much of us as we can.
They seem to be more aware of one another now and one of their favorite things to do is lay on their play gym together and "hang" (on their backs of course). =)

Our Favorite Things:
We love hanging out in our swings, sometimes swinging, sometimes not swinging.  Mobile on.
We love being outside, although thanks to the Texas heat it doesnt happen as much as we would like.
We love to nap and watch sesame street & word world in our bouncers.
Similac Sensitive is our first love. White grape juice is our second.
We love rice cereal and we seem to love the apple sauce mom has been adding to it but the jury is still out....
We love our mobiles that Nai-Nai and Yea-Yea bought us.  We miss them every day and wish they lived closer.
We love that our Mimi hops a flight home almost every week just to spend time with us.
Most of all we love when Daddy gets home from school because we miss him terribly when he is gone!
