trendsetter

Brody's kind of learning how to dress himself -scratch that- he's learning how to undress himself! Sometimes shirts can be a little tricky (pants not so much, they just slide over his non-bum) so shirts can take on a new look. Do you dare to try?

two of a kind

Our little guys may not be identical, but they certainly are similar! Not only do they like to wake each other up or eat while the other one's feeding, but their often caught doing the same movements (not too hard to imagine since their both newborns!) Here's a couple looks at their twin behavior:

Justin said he had a treat for me, and this is the cookie he brought home for me from my favorite bakery. Go Lakers!

new arrivals

The wait is finally over! We are super excited to share that our little guys made it here on Thursday May 28th at 5:05 and 5:06 pm. First came Crew Clarke Ashton, and second was Kade Michael Ashton! We are so excited to finally have these little guys here and to get learn all about them! So, without further ado, here's the pics!

Close up of Crew. Our boys look a lot a like and sometimes it can be a little tricky to tell them apart from one another!

Kade was 5 lbs. 10 oz. and was 18.5 inches long. He's already quite the eater! It's nice to finally have a kid that eats what we serve up!

Crew was 5 lbs. 12 oz. and was 19 inches long. He's our sleeper, and loves to be snuggled and held. I'm so excited to have a kid that wants to cuddle, hopefully this holds up!

Our new family photo, it was a little chaotic, and it's hard to see everyone, but this pic really makes us proud! Brody does a little better with the "brothers" concept everyday, I can't believe how HUGE he is compared to the twins!

Leaving the hospital with the twins. The first couple of days the boys (especially Crew) had a really hard time keeping food down. Now they're doing much better, and only spit up from time to time. Thankfully we were all able to leave the hospital together on time. We love our new little guys!!

More pics in the days to come!

buddies

Justin and Brody have been the cutest buddies lately, it seems like they're always off on some adventure together, which allows me plenty of time to rest. Here's some pics from their latest adventures together:

Our fire station had a open house so of course these two were there! They got to explore the fire house, trucks and ambulances.

During Justin's spring break these two buddies enjoyed a day at the LA zoo. Brody's been very into animal sounds lately so he finally could put the sound to the real life animal! They're just enjoying the petting zoo and a soft sheep.

Checking out a goat who seems WAY bigger than Brody is!

mom's day

Last year I made a framed scrap page for my dad, and I've been planning on doing one for my mom, and finally the plan came to me! Now I'm definitely no scrap wizard, actually this is the first thing I've done in months, but it's always so fun to put a page together for someone else and to include lots of old photos. The page has a little progression of my mom's life: from single girl, to wedding day, to newlywed before kids, to all five girls, and ends with all the grand kids (to date). My dad helped me find all the pics, and my sister's and I all included reasons we love our mom. I'm so thankful for my mom and was so lucky to spend mother's day together. As for mother's day in my home, Justin really gave me a super mother's day and it really made me think how lucky I am to be married to my sweetheart, with one super cute little boy, and two little guys just weeks away from us. Happy mother's day to all the mom's out there!
