Rolling!

Malachi officially rolled over! Yesterday after church we laid him down on the floor for some tummy time. He was a little upset and frustrated by the work needed to lift his head up. Then the frustration peeked cause he lost his nuk! As I was heading over to give it back I picked up the nuk and before I could put it in his mouth he was on his back! The little stallion rolled over on his right and then did it again! Then finally he rolled to his left!

He still hasn't rolled from back to tummy but he will get there the little rock-star. Now we just need to get him sleeping thru the night. Malachi has had a pretty good routine 2a.m. and then again at 5:30a.m. Mike and I have developed a plan (Amy gets the 2a.m. and Mike gets the 5:30a.m.). It works out really well until Malachi doesn't follow his schedule! We have had 1 night where he only woke up one time-which we loved! And last night where he screamed/cried from 11p.m. to 1a.m. and then woke up at 5a.m. with no desire to eat, but to fuss and demand attention. So this is a work in progress! We are all doing well, lacking a little sleep-but loving being a family!

Please pray for a wonderful night sleep. One wake up call isn't terrible so we would accept that (and when that happens Amy gets the feeding unless on the few nights that Mike volunteers). Also please pray as we begin this process of looking for child care-that the house is a loving home where he gets good morals taught and within our budget.

Much love!

2 weeks and a new roof!

Well we are closing in on the 2-week old mark! 2 weeks ago today I was just hanging around the house as it was Memorial Day (wishing my parents a wonderful 30th wedding anniversary). But little did we know that the night of their anniversary would be the start of welcoming in their second grandbaby, and their first grandson!

This weekend Mike (with some great friends) worked hard and redid our roof! It was an awesome time watching them all work so hard! It was a tough project, but we did get it done!

The Surprise Party

Well Malachi is here! He made his surprise appearance on Tuesday (May 31st)! Below is a picture of him holding in his pacifier-more pictures to follow! Thanks to those who have already texted us, called us, facebook messaged us, etc! We feel very blessed to have such great friends/family.

Looking at Daddy!

The nuk cannot leave his mouth! And "Go Twins"
