Trick or Treat!







This is Victoria, Jacob and Patrick at the Trunk or Treat at one of the local churches. TOO MUCH CANDY. It might be gone by Christmas!



Joseph... who is too cool for family costumes

Joseph went to the church Youth's Party. Victoria was hoping for him to be the Mad Hatter or White Rabbit, but no such luck. He was the Insane Clown?!?!?

Halloween Pictures












Here they are Alice in Wonderland, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum!



Jacob smiling...Patrick sleeping

This is how my day goes...one wakes up and the other sleeps. Finally get the that one asleep and then the other wakes up.

Victoria steals the camera for a bit


And this is what you get.

First smiles


These aren't really the first smiles, just the first ones caught on camera!








Here are all the kids and their pumpkins! Lots of carving and painting.


Napping with Daddy

When we feed them early in the morning, Matt grabs Patrick because he eats fast and goes back to sleep with daddy!

Joseph....Guns and fishing



One of the reasons Joseph loves going to NC so much! The gun was Poppie's and he caught the fish in a pond behind mom and dad's house.

The Boys go to NC for the 1st time


On October 12th we went home to show off the boys to everyone. We had a little get together at the First Baptist Church in Mt Holly. Here the boys are pictured with their Great great grandmother VanDyke and Great great grandmother Heath.

Go Heels! Go Devils!



Ours is a house divided...Matt's step-sister and brother in law gave the boys these shirts. Now, not only have mom and dad a difference of opinion, it has extended to the children.

The boys first photo shoot




This was super fun! It's hard enough to get one baby to take a good pic, two was just about impossible!

Char-char



Matt and his mom, Charlotte hold the babies.

The twins and their cousin Zachary


Or as I like to call them
small ......
medium .....and
SUPER-SIZED!!
Four months is a BIG
difference in this family!

All the grandkids


This is Christy's mom and dad with all the grandchildren. Imagine, they went from 2 grandkids to 5 in a 6 month period. It is going to be crazy at our house this Christmas!

Home at last


They look like Mutt and Jeff

On their way home

The boys in their carseats on their way home for the first time.

My favorite picture


The Best brother and sister ever!

Snug as two bugs in a rug

Here they are, hopefully they will stay this sweet.

Twins 1st Doctor visit

This is the first visit the twins had with their pediatrician, Dr Steiglefest.

Every body meeting the boys











Here are Pictures of everyone holding the babies.

Here are the boys




Here they are
...Patrick Keith came at 2:49 am, he weighed 7 lb 1 oz. and was 19 and a half inches long. Jacob Matthew came at 3:24 am and weighed 5 lbs 12 oz and 18 inches long. Jacob is the first pictue, Patrick is the second.

On our way to the Operating Room


Mom and Dad just made it in time for me to deliver.
Even though we were planning for a vaginal delivery, but with twins the always deliver in the Operating Room so that the docs can prepare for anything. It was a good thing that they did because after Patrick was born, Jacob was up too high and his heartbeat started to slow down. Instead of taking any chances they took Jacob by C-section. So I got the best of both worlds! Ha Ha Ha. It's not important, I got both of my wishes. I have my two healthy boys and THEY ARE OUT!!!

Waiting for the boys


This is a picture of Victoria. She sacked out in the room at about 8:30 watching "SpongeBob". Of course, if you ask her, this is the picture of her staying up all night waiting for the twins.
