Tayler in the Bumbo

They are still a little to young but we decided to try out Tayler (who is holding his head up pretty good now) in the Bumbo.

The best big brother ever entertains Tayler. Both babies just love to watch anything Jayden is doing. It is so cute!

First Day of School

Today was Jayden's first day of preschool. He was so excited that he was ready with his backpack on two hours before school started.

We took the babies to Nena's before Momma took Jayden to preschool and discovered that Aunt Shirley had found a double stroller for the twins. Of course, Jayden wanted to try it out.

Finally, we arrive at school. Within minutes Jayden has joined the other kids on the rug. He is so grown up!

The Art of Casting

Tonight Daddy took Jayden in the backyard to practice casting his new fishing pole. Jayden was so excited!!

Swimming at the Boerm's

Momma's friends Erin and Brett got a beautiful new pool this week so since Momma's time off is winding down we decided to enjoy it while we could. Jayden is getting very good in the water. Just recently he has tried to swim without his floaties (but he sinks like a rock) and he jumps in off the side by himself. We had a great time swimming while the babies slept inside. Thank you Boerm family for the invite!

Tayler is really starting to push himself up during "tummy time".

Jayden's First Trip to the Dentist

Today was Jayden's first trip to the dentist. He did a great job and the dentist counted, polished and flossed his teeth. The dentist said his teeth look great!

Before they started...look at the look of concern.

Napping Babies

Tayler and Hadley are starting to get more on a nap schedule as they are sleeping less and less during the day. Here are a few pics of them passed out in various positions.

Yard Work

Tonight Jayden helped Daddy in the yard. He loves helping his Daddy with everything and thinks he can do anything that his Daddy can do.

Sleeping Longer

Momma is happy to say that the twins are starting to sleep longer at night. Most nights they are now sleeping 4-5 hours which feels dramatically different than feedings every three hours. They are still sleeping in Mommy and Daddy's room but will soon graduate to their own bedroom.



Ready to go to sleep. They are very good at putting themselves to sleep which makes going to bed very easy.

Visit to Great Grandpa Green's House

This weekend Papi, Mimi and Aunt Bear took Jayden down to Marshfield, MO to visit with his Great Grandpa Green. They decided to get a hotel room on the way (mainly so Jayden could swim).

Tayler's Visit to Children's Hospital

Tayler was wheezing tonight so Momma took him to Children's Hospital. They had him wear a mini-hospital gown and of course Momma had to take a picture of him in it. Luckily, everything checked out fine.

Babies at 10 weeks

It is hard to believe that Tayler and Hadley are already 10 weeks old. Time definitely is flying by and they are getting to be so much fun.

All of the Bettorf boys.

Big smiles for Daddy!

Great Grandbabies

Momma and cousin Traci took the kids to get their pictures taken. Here are a few of our favorites.
