We've been busy!
The last couple of weeks have been BUSY for the Kocher family!
Getting bundled up to go check out the first snow of the year. Mom wasn't worried about them getting cold:)
First Thanksgiving snuggling with Great Auntie Carol.
We took our first road trip down to Teresa's for the girl's annual Bake Off. Luckily, Jamie rode down with me but I was on my own the way back. We only had to stop once!
Addie helped out a lot this year. I loved that she would just strip off her clothes and cook naked as soon as she spilled.
Avery and Emma finally got to meet their future boyfriend Easton and best friend Parker.
We got all dressed up to cheer the Cougs on. As soon as we got home Mike changed Emma into a Husky outfit. But I know she didn't like it very much as she pooped right after he put it on!
Putting up Christmas decorations was a bit of a challenge this year, but after three days we got it done. A&E love looking at all the pretty lights on the tree.
And A&E turned two months old! We decided they were gaining enough weight and could wake up on their own when hungry. We went from waking them every three hours to 5 and 6 hour stretches of sleep at night! I feel like a new woman!!!

Thankful
This Thanksgiving I have a lot to be thankful for. I remember too vividly this time last year when Mike asked me what I wanted for Christmas. I started crying and told him there was nothing I wanted more than a baby. And now today I am lucky enough to be spending my first Thanksgiving with my two precious girls and starting our own family traditions.
I couldn't have gotten through this roller coaster of a year without all the support from my friends and family. Thank you all!
Today I am very thankful.

One Month
Happy one month birthday to my precious girls!
I can't believe one month has already gone by and they are changing so much. I shed a couple tears when I had to box up all of the preemie clothes and switch over to the newborn sizes. Emma is now 7 1/2 pounds and Avery 6 1/2!
Their personalities have definitly started to show and Avery is the calm patient one and only cries when she needs something. Even though Emma looks a lot like her Daddy, I think she's going to be a little more like her mama...uh-oh!
I tried to take some cute pics yesterday but they really wern't in the mood for a photo shoot.
I had to take a break to go change Avery's diaper and this is what I came back to. Apparently the bright lights were too much for Emma.

Happy Halloween and Birth Day Grayson and Ella
Happy Halloween and welcome to the world Hunt twins!
My sister and Harold's little one's arrived early this morning. Grayson Eugene and Ella Ashlynne were delivered early at 32 weeks due to complications but both are doing well in the NICU.
Avery and Emma are so excited to have twin cousins so close in age and we cannot wait to meet them at Christmas! Love and prayers to Stacey, Harold, Cole, Grayson and Baby Girl!

A couple weeks of firsts
First real bath!
Avery loved it so much she fell asleep!
First walk around Greenlake on a beautiful fall day. Why can't everyday is Seattle be like this?
First nap with Daddy.
First visit from their new BFF Charlotte. We can't wait till we are her size!
And my first time at home alone with the babes. I cried for about an hour after Mike left for work, but we made it through the day on our own with a trip to the doctor and another walk around Greenlake. I'm not going to lie, it is really hard, but seeing precious moments like this, makes it all worth it!
