Nothing too exciting

I don't really have any exciting posts or news about our family, but I thought I would go ahead and post the pics that I have taken in the past several days. I talked Nanthida the other day and she told me that two Graceland girls, her sister Sue and fellow Hanthorne girl April had said they enjoyed my blog because I updated it often. Thank you very much ladies, it gave me motivation to keep it up! I enjoy keeping up with your lives as well, these blogs make the world smaller and easier to keep in touch!
I was off work Thursday and Friday so I really had the intention to do a blog that was a day in the life of Jacob and Alexis. I know, I stole this title and idea from one of my favorite shows Jon and Kate plus 8 (I got addicted to it during my pregnancy, when I was depressed or overwhelmed with my pregnany, I thought things could always be worse, I could be expecting sextuplets!). But it is really difficult to take pictures all day and keep up with these two. So what I have is random assortment of pictures taken throughout the last 3 days. I warn you, they aren't all cute and cuddly pictures of Jacob and Alexis. I decided to show you the dark side of my children, the temper tantrums a 2 month old will throw.



This is pre-meltdown. I thought Jacob might like his little gym-thing. He doesn't like it or his swing or his bouncy seat. This child just likes to be held and cuddled.
I dont thing I need to put a title on this one
The past two nights I have put these two in the same bed. At roughly 9 they are ready to go to bed and I lay them opposite side of the bed, far from each other. When they wake up and I go into their room hours later, this is how I find them. I have no idea how they scoot to each other and end up cuddling. It is so precious. I guess they really do have that weird twin thing going on.
Oh the exciting news, they have slept almost 6 hours straight the past two nights. I am finally starting to feel like a normal human being and not a zombie.

Alexis in too small of clothes. She is gettin so chunky and I think these clothes are newborn size. Look at those chubby cheeks and that gut!
Cute sleeping babies!

They are being cute...

then Jake starts throwing a fit and hits his sister....
next I try to get them to sit up and pose for a picture. This is the best picture I could get.

I decided to see if they like TV yet. Sometimes I catch them looking at the screen and staring at the colors and movement. So I turn the TV on to Nickelodeon around noon so I could start cleaning the house hoping, stupidly, that this might keep them occupied or put them to sleep. Guess what was on? My least favorite Nickelodeon show, Sponge Bob. For a few seconds they seemed mesmorized by that darn sponge and his plankton friend.
I thought this was cute. They are actually looking at each other.

Hopefully I can update within the next week. I have a full week of work and when I get home the last thing I want to do is get on the computer. At least I really enjoy my job, I think when I graduate from nursing school I want to stay in the doctor's office. Awesome hours, no being on call, and no working holidays and weekends. After years of working nights, weekends and being on call, this heaven.
