Movin' and groovin'

Corbin and Quinn took their first outside walk when the weather was so nice a couple of weeks ago. Quinn enjoyed looking around and smiled at mommy the whole time until he fell asleep. Corbin was a little bit more unsure and wanted mommy within his sight at all times - but he also managed to catch a good snooze. The boys as well as mom just enjoyed getting some fresh air together during the week without it meaning they were on the way to a doctor's appointment! The groovy stocking caps the boys wore are from their Great-Aunt Lori and wonderful friend Barbara. :)

The other pics are of the boys in their new p.j.s (also from Great-Aunt Lori and wonderful friend Barbara). Mom and Dad think they look like big boys in them! As you may be able to tell, the pictures were taken after eating and bathing and the boys were ready for some shut-eye.

Corbin would also like to report that he is now rolling over...but unlike his brother who laughs when he does it, it tends to startle Corbin. They are two different boys for sure!

Soooooo big

The Brunin boys had a NICU follow-up last week...at that time Corbin weighed 14 lb 5 oz and Quinn was 13lb 9oz! They are definitely growing! Quinn is rolling over and cracking himself up when he does it. Corbin isn't all about the tummy time. He will lift his head and then he is pretty much done. When he gets a start from the half-way point he does well with rolling over - he just still wants the extra help! They are both really batting at their toys now and like it when the toys on their bouncers light up and move.

Both Corbin and Quinn have discovered their thumbs and prefer those over binkies. They have also made the move into their cribs. They are sleeping in separate cribs because they move so much! When mom and dad go in in the morning they are each usually side-ways.

The first three pictures below are of Corbin, the next three Quinn (included are pictures of the first night in their cribs) and the last are the boys together. Mom and Dad are going to try to update with pictures more often!!

Update

Corbin and Quinn are doing well! They continue to grow and do new things every day. Corbin is somewhere in the 13 lb range and Quinn the 12 lb. They are both quite talkative now and are not afraid to be heard. Needless to say, the Brunin household is not a quiet place most of the time! Both boys are giggling at Mom and Dad and their smiles light up the room.

Here are pictures form the last few weeks. You will have to look at the first two with your head tilted...the person who posted this is a little sleep deprived. :) The order is Quinn, Corbin, Quinn, Corbin. In the next picture, the boys' cousin Vivian is reading them a book, and the other two are just the duo hanging out. You will notice that they still support the Jayhawks!

'Tis the season (3 months old)

The Brunin family has a lot to be thankful for this holiday season. Corbin and Quinn are enjoying being at home together. Both are gaining weight nicely (Corbin at last check was 8lb 11 oz and Quinn was 8 lb 2 oz) and are up to eating 5 oz. Dad and Mom love having their boys at home finally.

Below are assorted pictures from the weeks that have passed. As you can see from one of the pictures, Annie has officially met Corbin and Quinn. She isn't so sure about all of the crying and noises, but is hanging around the boys more and adjusting. The last pics are of the boys in one of their "first Christmas" outfits. Mom had them wear the reindeer outfits the night Rudolph was on television, and Mom may have been the only one who really enjoyed it! Quinn has the binkie in.
