Our Hoppy Easter

This Easter was Hudson and Hadley's first major holiday. We had a nice relaxing morning together of family time while checking out what the Easter bunny brought in their Easter baskets. We really enjoyed a normal day after all the moving madness that had occurred in the two days prior. Then we dressed them up in their Easter outfits I made them (they were a little big but still cute) and took them to their first mass. They were so well behaved in church and we are so blessed to have these two little miracles.
The Easter Bunny Came!
They are so small they fit in their baskets but Hadley didn't like it.

One Month Old

They turned one month yesterday and I haven't been able to find the time to do one blog post since the one after they were born.  I feel like all I do is feed babies, pump, eat, got to the bathroom, wash pump parts and start all over again. This weekend Brian and I are going to try to leave them for a few hours so we can finally get out and do something together. Grandmom (Brian's Mom) has been helping with them around the clock because during the week Brian is in the city since we moved out to Maryland. If it wasn't for all the help I think I would lose my mind. But I do love my babies and they are soooo sweet. They already have little personalities and are starting to fill out so their newborn clothes almost fit. Here are a few things about them at one month: (I haven't loaded pictures on the computer yet from my good camera so these are all just from my phone.)
Hudson
6lbs 2oz
He is very feisty and has spastic fits at least once a day.
His arms are his worst enemy, he is obsessed with having them up by his face and they get in the way during naps and feedings.
Looks so peaceful when he sleeps
Loves to be rocked.
Likes to be held over the shoulder so there is pressure on his tummy.
Is very gassy.
His whole body turns red when he crys and he has a birthmark on his forehead that turns red when he crys or pushes really hard. 
He is very strong.
Likes tummy time and can lift his had from one side to the other.
Loves his sound machine!
Hadley
6lbs 1oz
Very laid back and content most of the time.
Loves to be held and will do a fake cry that sounds like "naah" but when you pick her up she instantly stops.
She is very alert and loves to be talked to, she is especially drawn to men's voices.
Loves attention.
Likes to lay on her side.
Looks pretty in pink :)
Both
Are good sleepers and sleep 5 hours during the night.
Like being swaddled.
Poop and pee over 12x a day, we go through so many diapers.
Really like bath time.
With their teddy bear, the first thing we bought them.
At one month 
Weight check at the doctor this week
This one is blurry but I think it's funny 
Hudson punching his sister
Now he is doing his champion pose
And sticking his tongue out at her.
Poor Hadley already getting beat up and teased.
