Our beautiful blue eyed boys



I'm surprised that their eyes are still so blue! They may change color in the months to come, but they have the prettiest blue eyes. Today they are 9 weeks old. They are changing every day and are such good babies. They like to play on the activity mat and also sometimes I can here them singing the Clemson fight song (they get that from their Papa!). Thankfully, they are growing more hair after looking like bald old men for a while; that must be from the Catalano side of the family. hee hee Branson has some chunky thighs and Holden makes many funny noises. Two too cute babies.

Growing SO big!!


These boys are already 8 weeks old and if that is not hard enough for us to believe they are getting really heavy! Branson is a back-breaker to pick up and carry, and Holden is not far behind him. They are still really good babies and so sweet. They can give you a big smile now, which is so cute to see. Branson (aka "Pipes" when he is crying) smiles a lot. His brother Holden (aka "0to60" when he cries) is a little stingy with the smiles, but when he decides to give you one it is the biggest cutest smile - with two dimples as a bonus too. We sure do love these little "knuckleheads" as Ashley calls them.

Ashley's First Father's Day!


Ashley and I had a low key Father's Day on Sunday. Poppy came over to see the boys and we celebrated Ashley's First Father's Day. The boys behaved and enjoyed it!

Branson and Holden at six weeks




It's really hard to believe how fast and big our boys are growing! I can't believe the time... it is flying by. Here Branson and Holden are chillin' out together in the pack-n-play on the back porch the day they turned 6 weeks old. They sure love each other.

Throughout the day I change up the scenary for them. They have different "stations" around the house to keep them entertained. The swings, the activity playmat, the back porch, a walk around the block in the stroller... we have fun together!

Chow Time






When both boys have to eat at the same time I just prop them on the couch and put a bottle in their mouth. It's really very easy and they are quite patient with me. It's so cute to see them touch each other or hold fingers together while they eat. They also take turns waiting patiently while I have to burp one or the other during their bottle. I think being a twin teaches one to have patience early on. This picture is of them on the couch and me feeding with one hand and taking the picture with the other; I have learned to multi-task among other things! They are growing and doing great!

Bare Boys



Just a cute pic I wanted to share! Ashley and I (Gracie too) could kiss them all day long if they'd let us.

Cone family photo



Thought I'd post a family photo ~ the only one we have where we aren't in t-shirts or pj's with spit up on us and have taken a shower! Here the boys are 4 and a half weeks old. (I know... I'm not holding Branson's head very good, realized it too late. I can still claim sleep deprivation okay!?)
