busy girls!

We have been very busy the last few weeks! We had a late birthday party for the girls and have had company, company and more company, went to the Aquarium, AND had a Pediatrician visit! The birthday party was great and it was so fun to have so many people that we love all in the same place! The appointment went as well as a 12 month appointment can go (shots!) and they are napping it off right now. They are deemed healthy but still teeny. Hannah weighed in at 16 pounds 1 ounce (<5%), 27 inches long (<5%), 17 inch head circumference (25%) and Meredith was 16 pounds 7 ounces (<5%), 27 inches long (<5%), and 17 inch head circumference (25%). I guess they have what their cousin Jackson would call "big melons"! It must be all the brains they got from my side of the gene pool (ha ha). The Pediatrician said to count on them being in the rear facing infant seats until they are 2! She said that at least they have each other to look at back there!

The girls were lucky to have two sets of Grandparents in the same place! The Finleys and their other Aunt Sara came to spend the weekend and spoil us!
Aunt Tricia and Aunt Sara gave the girls these pink push cars. As you can see, Meredith took right to it!
I can already tell who will be my more cautious driver! There are no two better pictures to capture the difference in the girls' personalities!

The girls didn't seem to like the Aquarium as much as the zoo, but it may have been because it was so crowded that it was hard to get to see anything ... maybe we will go back on a weekday!

We just took our twins to the GA aquarium a few weeks ago, too. They loved it, especially our girl.

It's fun to read about all of your Atlanta goings-on. We're in Athens, and my family is in Atlanta, so we make it down occasionally (and now I want to take the kids to all of the fun places you're going to!).
