White Christmas 2010!

Ok, so what did we do before kids? I didn't think we were really THAT boring... what a fun Christmas holiday with family and our two newest members and centers of attention!! I often have to sit back and thank God for these precious moments with family... what blessings.

The Warf 4 spent Christmas Eve in Grenada (Millie LOVED her vacation in the PetHotel over the weekend) . We went to the candlelight service at FBC Grenada and then had a scrumptious traditional meal, thanks to Donna Reid (a.k.a. Mimi)!  Silas and Avery did great - they are such troopers and just rolled with the flow all weekend!  They even slept just like they do at home in the pack and play:-)  (Silas sleeps ALL NIGHT! and Avery is usually up only once or twice... progress!)





Like I mentioned... Silas sleeps ALL night!  I even have to wake him up at 7am some mornings. I've got to film him while I get him up - it is hilarious. He doesn't like waking up... (just like his Daddy). He finally openes his eyes...

Our first White Christmas!!!



Santa didn't forget to stop by for Silas and Avery:-)


The boyz on the couch.

After Christmas morning in Grenada, we all loaded up and headed to Jackson, TN to Mop and Pop's house! Sara, my first cousin, and her husband Jarred just had their second child 2 days after Silas and Avery were born... babies, babies, everywhere! 

Moppy and Avery. Style lessons 101.

Avery, Jack, and Silas


I couldn't forget to share these cute pics of Silas hamming it up for the camera!!! He has become quite the talker!




Wheel came on.

and the camera was non-existent again.

There are cute videos I must post... will do that soon!

Catching up...more pictures

This is Avery. Either full speed ahead OR...

 
Stopped cold in her tracks. HA.


Getting ready for their bath... watching a mobile.... and holding hands! Awwwww.

Silas LOVES books. He focuses in on every page. So funny!  He's Mr. Serious. Mr. Thinker.

Look! She's napping!  By the way, she only sleeps with her arms in the air.



Happy boy!



Silas loves to sing!  Check it out:

December 4

We all had a big day on Saturday, Dec 4th!  The Moodys hosted a wonderful Sip n' See for Silas and Avery that morning - so fun!  We loved getting to see little Jack too - and boy, what fun it will be when all three are moving around like him!  :-)  

Sweet friends...  shouldn't we be playing "dress up" or putting on one of our Garth Brooks shows instead of holding babies??!

Silas loved the view from Meagan's lap:)

How special. Mrs. Ruth was Mamaw's best friend. She and Papaw sure would love meeting these babies. 

:-)

He already knows how to flirt!  Or maybe just doesn't understand the big pink think on Avery's head...

Pop, Mop and Gay Gay drove down for the afternoon... Silas and Avery loved their visit with them!




Avery had something very important to tell Pop... 




While Silas snoozed with Mop:-)


Such a cuddle bunny!

How sweet!!

Papaw... I'm ready to go!!  ... Or...
Well, anyway, I'm wid of that gwizzwy bear and scwewy wabbit. West and wewaxation at wast! 


Check out this fun photo shoot after church... :-)
Oh Silas, that face. 

Smiles!

3 months... and counting!

So... our little pictures aren't so easy to take anymore! Wow... you have to be quick with that camera to catch both of them smiling or even looking your way!  ha...  

I just can't believe how much or how fast they're growing!  I know, I know, everybody told us how fast it would go, but boy were you right!  Approximate 3 month stats:
Silas:  13lb8oz, 24.5 in long (I think we did this right!)
Avery:  11lb12oz, 23 in long

Sleep update:  Silas is now a champion sleeper!  He has actually slept through the night twice!  Last night, he ate once like usual... but SLEEPS in-between!  Avery is pretty consistent... she takes a bottle once during the night... we'll get there eventually!  

They are now cooing, talking back and smiling all the time!  The "eat, poop, sleep (repeat)" months were wonderful (of course!), but things are much more fun now that these little miniature people actually are communicating with us!  


  Let's see if you can guess which one will be the "talker"(always with her mouth wide open)!  









**Anybody that wants to come to Avery's party:  It is held nightly from about 7-9pm and again at 2:30-3:30am. Never to disappoint!  Always entertaining. At least one attendee has a blast.



Of course, no words are needed... facial expressions tell all. Silas, I guess it's a good thing you won't be a good poker player.

 The wonderful ladies at the church organized an awesome diaper shower for Silas and Avery last Thursday!  Wow, what a blessing... and such a huge help! Mimi helped get the twins there and we all had so much fun!



The fam! (minus Millie, of course)
