This summer so far has been super busy! It is hard to keep up some of these days. The boys survived their trip to Chicago and are getting ready for another road trip this weekend. We are going to French Lick, Indiana. We are going to stay there bc my mom gets her condo for free through work and I am going to take Jordan to Holiday World. Mom will watch the boys for the day, so I can take Jordan. Jordan deserves a nice little break. He has been a HUGE help with the babies and a great helper at my parents when my mom watches them during the day when I am at work.
Landon and Jalen are doing wonderful! They keep getting bigger and bigger. The other day we had Indiana First Steps come to the house to evaluate the boys. This is when they would send 2 therapists to work with the boys on their skills. They are both where they need to be when it came to their skills with their adjusted age and even more advanced. The adjusted age is when they go by their first initial due date. This program likes to come to the homes of parents with babies who were born premature. Since they were where they need to be, there is no follow-up appointment needed, however if we are worried about something they will come to house until the boys are three years old. Jalen and Landon were both being show offs. :-) They were really happy what they saw from the boys.
Here are a fews pics that I took of them in the last couple of weeks

Update on boys
I know I have been a slacker on updates, but we have been very busy. Last Monday I went back to work. Booo. :-( It was tough and I did not want to leave Jalen and Landon, but I knew they were in good hands. My mom is wonderful and changed her shift at her job so she can watch the boys and we did not have to pay for child care. Jalen and Landon are getting so big! I can’t believe they are already 2 months old! Time sure does fly by quicky. Yesterday they had their 2 month visit at the pediatrician and received their shots. It went better than I expected. Landon is now 22 inches long and weighs 10 lbs 13oz! Jalen is 21 inches long and weighs 10 lbs 3oz! They gained 4lbs in a month, 6 lbs total since birth. Jalen has an appointment with Riley hospital with a dermatologist for his hemangioma behind his left ear. He has several on his body as Landon does too, but the one behind his ear does need attention. The one that you may have noticed is the one on Jalen’s forehead. These do eventually disappear, but could take several years.
Jalen and Landon had their first road trip and it was successful! We went up to Chicago for my cousins graduation party. They got to meet more family and they had so much fun. The trip did wear them out. They were so good in the car. I posted some pics and the link of the rest of the pictures from Jacquie. They turned out great!

Boys are a day old today if you by their adjusted age
I have two rollers now! Landon started to roll over a few days after Jalen. This may be a sign of early brother rivalry. Landon is not going to let his brother outshine him. This is very surprising that they are both rolling over since technically yesterday was their due date. Last weekend was my sisters high school graduation party and it was a big hit. Lots of family came down from Chicago that I have not seen since my brother’s wedding. Jalen and Landon are very lucky to have a loving family. They will meet more family in a week and a half when we go up to Chicago for my cousins graduation party. They are spoiled babies I can say. My aunt brought down TONS of clothes for them that she received from a twin mom. The sizes actually work out perfect for the seasonal clothes. I can’t wait to put them in their cute little preppy outfits. Landon has pretty much out grown newborn size and Jalen is right there behind him. They are getting so big. Next week they go in for their 2 months shots! EEEK! I can’t believe they are almost 2 months old!
