then March they turned 10 months and we had their uncle Hunter's birthday, St Patty's day and all the excitement of March Madness (UK basketball for any non sportsy people!!)
We just recently had a visit in Cincinnati where Trenna was the only one getting checked out. She's doin well.... They would still like to see her weight gain improve (still not hitting the curve yet, but she's getting very close) so we're changing her formula and the dietitian is going to send me a list of foods to try that should help pack on the pounds. While at the Cincinnati Children's hospital, we ran into the doctors that had even taking are of us ever since we had to have visits there and delivered the girls. She had not seen them since that day, so that was such a great surprise to run into her! And we also got to go to the NICU and visit with a few of our favorite nurses, which made me super happy to get to see them!!!!
Since the visit on Thursday, we have been trying a new sleep method.... That's going ok, but it will take some time to get use to, for all of us!
Friday we cheered on our Wildcats in true Ky fashion, decked out in our blue and white when we beat the defending champs/ our in state rivals, the Louisville Cardinals, and then again on Sunday when we beat the Michigan Wolverines to head into the Final four (woo hoo!!) we are calling it "the year of the twins" since our girls were born and two star players are Aaron and Andrew Harrison came on board for the 2013-2014 year :)
We've not been very lucky with the weather lately... Having quite a bit of cabin fever because it has been too cold to go outside, but there have been a few pretty days that we have taken advantage of and went waking with our friends Rachel and Liam and enjoyed some time playing in the backyard and a little in the park.
Ellie is very active now. She LOVES to get books and DVDs off the shelves and play with them. She's now working on going from the army crawl to actually crawling, so she's on the move ALL THE TIME! She is also pulling herself up and standing! She makes us all laugh when certain commercials she hears on tv, she will stop dead in her tracks to watch it, then go right back to what she was doing. And it's mostly musical commercials she likes. She now has two of her bottom teeth in and I think I've seen two more trying to poke their way out. She loves any food we will give her, and some that we don't, but she'll try to get anyways!
Trenna is just a ham.... Not sure what more I can say! She's a little behind on developments, but there doesn't seem to be any cause for concerns. She is now liking her tummy time more, rolling around everywhere and even getting up in her hands and knees. Just no crawling yet. She still needs a little assistance when she sits up on her bottom, but is doing ok and is realizing she can reach and play with much more when she's sitting up. Unlike her sister, she is more selective of her foods. She might be our picky eater (uh, like her daddy!) but we are goin to try to get her introduced to as much as we can, in moderation of course! She's such a sweetie though and loves to just be cuddled and have her ducky wubanub! They are both getting more and more interested in the dogs and try to pet them whenever the dogs are sitting still but because they are still a little rough, the dogs try and keep their distance, haha. I'm sure once they are a little bigger, the girls and dogs will become fast friends!
