My favorite part of Owen and Chase is their hands. They are sooooo little and sweet I could look at them all day. They open and close their little fingers, which are really fat. They point their fingers, put them in their eyes, put them in their brother's eyes and curl them so cute. I measured their hands today so some day I'll remember how small they are. Each boys' hand was 2.75 inches long from the first wrist fold to the end of the middle finger. That's TINY!

We had new pictures taken of Owen on Monday. When we had the originals done by our neighbor Owen had a bad day and we didn't get many pictures of him because he was crying. I felt badly about this and took him back so we would have more pictures of him. They turned out GREAT! Enjoy a few.

Aunt Kate came and has spent some time with the babies. She says she loves them. I'm happy to hear that. She is staying with us for a few days and is going to make some dinners to put in the freezer. Yipee. I think I may even get in a few naps while she watches the babies. That would be amazing. My parents were also in town for the weekend. My dad had not seen the babies in 3 weeks and was amazed at how big they were and how alert they are.

Owen and Chase stay awake longer and longer. They look around and look at toys and just love to look at me! :) They really like to take walks at night and lie on their tummies. I've found they also like to fall asleep on their tummies, so it's not the exercise I was hoping for.

I bought Halloween costumes yesterday! You'll have to wait to see what they will be wearing . . .
