sum of the summa


Last night I slept from about 10:30pm-4am. Back to bed around 4:30 and up around 8am.
I feel like a whole new person. I am in a really good mood and my face zits have cleared up (for the most part). In almost 11 weeks, that's the most sleep I have ever gotten in one night. BY FAR!! Being the mom of these two boys has been so much fun- and that little extra sleep last night just made me realize it even more today.
Going for a walk with Grandma Wintch, one of our favorite things to do!
James, the little guy. He has such a sweet personality! He's the calmer of the two. He has darker skin and hair. His eyes change colors depending on the day and lighting. He is very snuggly and was when he was inside of me, too. He has the most beautiful smile and facial features. He is a few pounds lighter than Jake but is a really good eater these days. When he cries it sounds like a little lamb--so cute! Today was probably the last day he can fit into his newborn clothes--even though he's almost 11 weeks old. I love this little boy.Jakey. Jakey-bug! This guy has bright blue eyes that are open more often than not. He has lighter skin and soft blonde hair. He is very interactive and some days I think he is just going to get up and start walking. It's no wonder that when my water broke, it was his because it seems that he's always ready to get up and go. He smiles all the time now and I think I even got a laugh or two out of him. When this guy wants food-just give it to him. He knows when he's hungry. He is so beautiful to look at. He's going to teach little James all the ropes one day. This little boy, I love.Love this one of the little guys. Just hangin' out--what we do best.
James on the rocker. He owns this pic--love it!
The lighting was perfect one afternoon for this shot of them on the hammock. James didn't think it was so great and wouldn't stop crying- but oh well it's still cute.
Self explanatory. James hearts his dad.
Love my little boys!!
Jakey

Thank you for the pictures and the little description of each of them. I am sad we missed you guys by just a week. Boo hoo for us. I am glad you got some good sleep. That is seriously blog worthy! Did I mention, by the way, that those boys are so cute!
