Well, our little babies are growing up. They are already rolling over on their own and getting ready to crawl. In this video, you will see them do just that. Aiden will roll over (a couple of times). Austin will kick and kick and kick while laying on his stomach as if he was ready to get some where quick! And the look at the end of the video is priceless!

VIDEO: Aiden & Austin (5 months old)
Well, here is our obligatory video of the boys in their diapers. Yes, they'll hate us for this when they are teenagers. But, it all makes sense now. They are just too cute NOT to post! We begin to see Aiden smile and laugh a little more and begin his arm swings (that we like to call his snow angel moves)! Austin is once again laughing. And they are both way too cute (not that we are biased in any way!)
VIDEO: Aiden & Austin (5 months old)
Here is Aiden & Austin in their walkers that Granddaddy Bob and Grandma Jeannine gave them for Christmas. They love them! At this point, we haven't put the wheels on them yet. But this video is priceless. Austin reinforces that laughter is a big personality trait of his. Aiden & Austin are facing each other as if they are talking, discussing, debating or meeting over something very important. Aiden quietly observes and takes it all in. Austin, well, he just finds something hysterical and laughs out loud. Very typical!
VIDEO: Aiden & Austin (2 1/2 months old)
Here is a video of Aiden (on the left) and Austin when they were only 2 1/2 months old. We can begin to see that Austin is the one who likes to laugh. This will be confirmed over and over in videos over time. We call Aiden our little observer. He has the biggest, roundest blue eyes and is always happy to just sit back and use them to take it all in. It's almost like he's studying everything. Then, if he decides to, he will laugh or smile or talk or maybe even cry (but that is rare...of course!)
More Aiden & Austin's Friends
Here's a short slideshow of some of the friends that came to visit in March:
March came in like a lion, and went...
Wow...it's already April 4th, 2009. The beginning of my posts are starting to sound like a broken record (much like the American Idol judges if you are watching that show at all). I had originally intended to post new updates every week. Ha! Then I thought it would be great to do it every month. Well, I did that pretty well...for the first 7 months. So I missed March. I hope to make up for that oversight or lack of attention by posting more than once this month! And here we go!
The boys are still growing so fast. Rich and I still look at each other every day and can't believe how lucky and blessed we are with such adorable, good, sweet, fun twin sons! I only wish this happiness on everyone (of course unless you only have one child...or one at a time...then just half of this happiness? Oh forget it, there's no putting limits on the amount of happiness children can bring into your life!)
Well, I'm going to get right to the pictures. Here are some of our favorites over the past couple of months. We hope you enjoy viewing them as we do...and as much fun as we had taking them...and viewing them again...oh forget it...you know what I mean!)

New Slideshows of Aiden & Austin's Friends!
Well, this post has been sitting in the draft folder for over a month now. I don't know why I didn't post it already. I am terribly remiss in posting the pictures of our friends and visitors who came to hang out with the boys in the months of January and February. It was all ready to go. I don't know why I didn't hit "publish post". My bad. But we've already established that I'm not the most prompt when it comes to posting on this blog (well, again, if you know me, its not just when posting to this blog...sigh...).
Anyway, thanks to all who came to visit in the first 2 months of this year. I want to especially mention my college roommate, Dennis, who visited in January. It had been quite a while since we had seen each other, and it was great to catch up and for him to meet the boys.
In February, our friends Dave and Steve came down from San Francisco who have a son, Joshua. Dave and Steve were also blessed with their son through the process of surrogacy. Joshua is only a couple of months older than Aiden & Austin. The pictures of the 3 of them are adorable! Also, our friend Bruce, who lives in our nation's capital, Washington DC, also visited in February. He and his husband, Adam, our about to embark on this incredible journey as well.
And I also want to mention, though they are not pictured recently (they are back in August) that our friends Kevin & Francesco and Chris & Derek are starting the surrogacy process. We are so excited for them and the joy that is about to fill their lives as much as our lives are filled. And we will be right here to share our experiences and provide help and support as much as we can!
