Stock Show 2009
We spent a day at the Stock Show in Denver. The boys really enjoyed all of the new noises, lights and smells. Both boys started the day with the cute outfits from Great-Grandma Yeager that you will see Cooper wearing. Carter's outfit didn't make the whole day. We had found a nice quiet place to feed the boys lunch. I was ready to change Carter's diaper when I turned him over and it was too late. It was the biggest mess we have ever had. Sitting on the bleachers watching a heifer show is not the most convenient place for the major mess that we experienced. Fortunately there was an extra outfit in the diaper bag and lots of wipes!

Time flies when you are raising twins
Carter and Cooper are three months old today. The boys keep us busy. We spend a lot of time keeping them fed. The constant feeding has paid off as they have each doubled their size since they were born. Carter is weighing about 12 pounds and Cooper is about 11 pounds. The boys just went through a growth spurt. We finally have them filled up the last few days.
Carter and Cooper each smile and coo now. I saw a quote, “There is nothing like a child’s smile to make all the chaos worthwhile.” How true that is. Carter started sleeping through the night about a month ago. Cooper will sleep through most nights, but needs a reminder about 3 am each night that it’s not time to wake up. Luckily, the pacifier will get him back to sleep until 5 or 6.
Starting December 1st, I started working about 20 hours a week from home. Curt also continues to work from home. A friend will start watching the boys a couple of days a week in January, so that Curt and I can be more efficient about our work! Curt gets very busy with bull sales and I will return to the office for 30 hours a week in February. We’ve sure enjoyed being able to be home with them this long.
Both boys are anxious to do something more than lay around. These pictures are of the boys in their chairs, called Bumbo's, watching football. We laughed at Carter as he "talked" about the game while watching it.
