What a week!

This past week has been so much fun! The boys really have started to show their personalities and they are starting to talk to you a little bit. It has been great to have them interacting with us and smiling all the time!

This weekend we also had family in town and we had the boys baptized as well. It was so great to have the boys surrounded by so many friends and family. Of course I stressed the whole weekend about the boys crying or spitting up on the pastor. Well, one out of two isn't so bad... In reality the boys did really good. :) They stayed in the service up until the baptism without making one sound. Then the pastor calls us up and Emory started to fuss. Luckily, Chris turned him around to look at all of the people and he quieted right down (our little socialite). Cooper slept up until the minute we walked up to the front of the church. Both boys did fine until the water was placed on their heads and then they both fussed a little bit. (I'm thinking the church should invest in a heater to put in the water so that it isn't so shocking on their little heads...) They quieted right down though once the pastor took both of them and walked around the church. Emory even fell asleep in Pastor Ray's arms! Cooper fussed through the entire prayer after that though. I felt so bad! Our dear friend Kristen prepared this beautiful prayer for us and I don't think I heard 2 words of it. :( I did read it afterwards though and she did such a great job. It was really special to have her as a part of our day! She has been praying for our boys since before they were born! So, it was great that she could be our elder for this special day. The rest of the day went really well. We invited everyone over to our house for lunch afterwards. The boys did great! They slept through the whole thing!

Here is a picture of our special day...As you can tell, they had enough attention by the time we could take the photo. Both babies were screaming, but it was nice to at least take a picture of all of us.

The other great thing about this past week is that the boys turned 3 months yesterday! And, to celebrate, they allowed mommy and daddy to have a good night sleep! The boys manage to sleep a whopping 10 hours! So, we actually were able to sleep through the night. It was great!! I just hope they keep it up...We'll see...
