Our Local Gator

Eventful sightings of an alligator in the lake behind our home have made South Florida life extremely authentic. The Wildlife Authorities are supposedly trying to capture and relocate this guy, but as of yet he seems to have evaded them. So, to the great disappointment of our boys, we have banned swimming in the lake for the time.

Introducing Rice Cereal

It was an exciting time in the Schweitzer home as we introduced Jonathan and Luke to rice cereal for the first time. The boys didn't know what to do with the cereal once it was placed in their mouths. After many tears of confusion as to what in the world are you feeding me, Jonathan has taken to eating it quite well...so well that he doesn't like to have to wait in between spoonfuls. Luke on the other hand is getting use to eating it but likes to play with it on his tongue more so than swallowing it. It's our evening entertainment as a family!

Twins at 4 Months

At the boys 4 month appointment, Jonathan weighed just under 14 lbs and was 26 inches tall. Luke weighed 13 lbs and was 25 inches tall. Both are doing well. They are enjoying sitting in the bumbo seat to practice sitting up on their own. Luke finds joy in sticking his tongue out and Jonathan is turning over every moment he can.

Visiting with Family

We had a wonderful time visiting with our family over the past few weeks. Mark's Dad enjoyed playing cards with Jonathan and his Mom delighted in walking around with Luke. Kristin's grandparents got to feed the boys one night after dinner. Mark's Aunt and Uncle came over for dinner on Monday since they were done in Miami for a business trip. Overall it was a great time filled with fun memories. Family is such a cherished gift from God!

Multiple Memories of Valentine's Day Weekend

Mark and Kristin enjoyed dinner, a movie and a beautiful South Florida sunset over the weekend. Jonathan and Luke want to be a super hero like their Daddy. Kristin had a great time with Ryan and Jessica at a Florida Panthers hockey game. We are enjoying the goodness of God!

Valentine's Day Weekend

This Valentine's Day weekend was an exciting time in the Schweitzer home! Jonathan has found his hands and enjoys chewing on them. He also likes to make bubbles with his drool. Luke found his tongue and delights to use it. Both have begun to learn how to laugh especially when in conversation with Daddy. Over the weekend all four of us celebrated Valentine's Day at Chick-fil-a for dinner. Momma surprised Daddy with a balloon in his office and two picture frames of family photos to put on his desk. Daddy surprised Momma with a homemade Valentine from the twins as well as two Valentine outfits for the boys.
