12 weeks, where did it go?

Today is the boys 12 week birthday. I have no idea where the time has gone. The first 12 days were spent in the NICU, but after that I've lost track of everything. It seems like such a blur, but I feel like we have figured so many things out since our two baby boys came into our lives.

Will is slightly smaller than Ben, each doctor's appointment he is only one ounce less. He still has that "big red marker" (as Josie refers to it) on his belly. So if all else fails we strip them down to identify who is who. He tends to wake up first and is starving, but never finishes his bottles or eats just a little less than Ben. Will just seems to take his time when he eats (just like dad) When he smiles he smirks first then does a full smile. It's like he isn't sure about you at first then decides ok that is funny.

Ben's extra ounce of weight is all in his cheeks. While Will is starting to catch up he is definitely a little more round and cheeky than Will. Ben will slam his bottles so fast. He doesn't mess around when it comes to his food (just like mom). He smiles from ear to ear instantly when he thinks something is deserving.

Both boys just idolize their big sister Josie. She walks into the room and they instantly follow her every move. She talks or sings to them and they coo right back. The love between them warms my heart. I am cherishing these moments as I am sure in the future they will be yelling at each other!

I thank God everyday for blessing us with 3 beautiful healthy babies. Josie may be 2, but she is still my baby too!
