Arnoldink Family: November 2009

Wow, does time really fly or what?!? Our beautiful babies are now 4 and a half months old! They are absolutely ADORABLE and most important as healthy as can be :) Axton is weighing 19 lbs and measuring 26 inches and Adelyn is 16.5 lbs and measuring 25 inches. We have had NO problems gaining weight, as I am still ONLY nursing these babes! I am soooo thrilled that I have been able to supply enough for the both of them, as it is so healthy. They eat at the same time every time and are taking naps in the morning and afternoon. Sometimes they take turns napping, which is fine. I get some one on one time with them :)

Axton first rolled over at 7 weeks old...yes you heard that correct! Adelyn just rolled over at 3.5 months. Now she is rolling over all the time. Axton has yet to roll over since then....I think he might be a little heavy now, hehe! We just put a jumper together and Axton is having a great time jumping. He gets himself going so fast, almost out of control...too funny! Adelyn needs to grow another inch and she will be set, not too crazy about the jumper.

We have been SUPER blessed with these little Kiddo's sleeping. Ever since 2 months old, they started sleeping 7-8 hours. We would get random 9-10 hours here and there. At about 3.5 months they started sleeping more 9-11 hours. They are doing AMAZING and it gives Grant and I time together at night since we put them to bed between 8-9. I guess I could go on bragging about them forever...haha, they are truly great babies!

It is hard to believe that our babies are coming upon 5 months. I just looked back through all my pictures since they have been born...unreal how fast they grow! I have LOVED every stage of being a mommy. It is really getting exciting to see them smile, laugh and coo at both Grant and I. This is the stage Grant has been looking forward to. They can respond and they know who we are. How amazing little infants are and how quickly they learn. God has created two miracles and has blessed us with these innocent little lives that we are so excited to raise and teach as best as we can.

I thank God everyday for his blessings and how amazing he is to us. I pray that he continues to keep our children healthy and help them to grow stronger and stronger everyday. Thank you for all your prayers and thoughts about us. I WILL update this baby more often. Enjoy the pictures and much love is sent your way :)
