11 Weeks

Almost to that three month mark (15 days away) and these girls are definitely on their way to being infants instead of newborn "fourth trimester" babies. They just now went 5 hours between feedings, meaning they slept close to 4.5 hours. Happy Valentine's Day to us! Sleeping 5 hours is considered "sleeping through the night" (ok) so, here we almost are.

And we had lots of accomplishments this week, after getting over our colds. Freya's big one was rolling over from her tummy to her back during tummy time. She did it for the first time when we were at Happy Bambino for a parent-infant group. What a little performer. Freya also has been smiling in response to our smiles regularly, and has started babbling conversations. Signe's accomplishments: well, she's such a smiley baby now. She smiles all the time and it's wonderful. Even at the midnight and 4 am feedings - smile smile smile. It's impossible to not smile back, and all we can do to not get all excited and laughing and talking when it's supposed to be bed time. She even smiles at the mirror that is in the infant swing. Ahh they're so cute!

I think probably everyone who reads this blog saw this on Facebook, but Kurt's big news this week is that he got into the UW-Madison Medical Physics grad program. He's so excited, and I'm so excited for him. He's doing a bunch of visits and socials and etc over the next month to figure out his professor and focus and get to know the program.

We're gotten to everyone's favorite part (if you even made it through the above :-)), pictures!

Caught a Freya-smile!

Mmmm daddy's finger

Volumized hair after a bath




This was when Freya was still sick - poor little girl



Compare this to the above and you can see how much more bunchy Signe still is

Nona Carol time!
