yesterday was a big day for the lawless household. not only did my mom desert us after staying with us for two months, but we also had zach and zoe's two month checkup. (i was kidding about the deserting part...we sure do miss her already!!)
the doctor's appt went very well with the exception of having to watch my little angels endure three injections a piece and a yucky oral vaccine! luckily though, not even fifteen minutes post shots, they were both back in good spirits again. even mommy forgot about them until she saw the big ol bandaids on their thighs as a reminder!
so here's the latest...
zach is now 13 lbs 5 oz (50th percentile), 23 inches long (50th) and his head is measuring 15 1/2 inches (25 - 50th percentile).
zoe is 10 lbs 15 oz (50th), 23 inches as well (75th) and her head is 15 inches long (25 -50th).
so...as you can see...they're doing quite well! can't knock the breast milk!
other than that, we're just chugging along. like i said, it's only the first day since my mom has left, so we'll be faces some new challenges, but are also in the process of looking for a nanny. we're actually "trying out" a few first since i'm here and hopefully we'll find someone we really trust and the children really like. i don't go back to work for a few months yet, so at least we have some time.

we were fortunate enough last week to have jason's aunt betty and aunt linda spend some time with the kiddos and with us last week. not only that, but they cooked up a storm and filled up our freezer with lots of meals that we can't wait to try! thank you aunt betty, aunt linda and mrs. lawless!
zoe is just smiling up a storm these days and is definitely a morning person. as long a night as we may have had, she wipes the slate clean for both her and her brother once we see her precious smile bright and early! zach is a little more reserved with his smiles, but he does like to spread his throughout the day!
the goal is to try and start sleep training them this weekend. i'm nervous...i think it's going to be torture, but hopefully it will make for happier children and parents at the end of the day! i quizzed the doc yesterday on the matter, and she was a big advocate of starting it now, so we've gotten the green light...wish us luck! thanks erin for sending me the book...that will be my bible for this sleep training!
otherwise...keep referring to the picasa website for picture updates. i'm trying to be good about it, but forgive me if i'm delinquent at times! but since this week's haven't been posted yet, here's a couple...zoe with my mom and zach this morning with two of his three bandaids still intact.
