Snow Day

Today we got a ton of snow so we decided to let the babies go out and have their first snow day. They looked so cute all bundled up, like little marshmellows! When we got outside, E did not like the snow at all, she just cried so she and I finally went in the house. Ben and A stayed out a little longer and made snow angels.


Christmas Card Photo Shoot

Today we finally got with it and dressed the kids up and took their pictures for our Christmas cards. A & E don't like to cooperate so we didn't get the "perfect" shots but hey, what fun is that anyways! Here are a few of the attempts we made:

Growing and Learning

The babies are getting soooo big! They are 22 months and I can't believe that they are almost 2. They are learning so much more than I feel like I am teaching them. A still loves to help with everything, it's amazing some of the things he picks up, he figures out so much on his own as well. E loves to dance and run (and especially hop!). They have just really started talking the last couple of weeks, we were a little worried because they would talk to each other but not really to us. I think almost everyday they say something new! One of my favorites is when A says...um! I guess I must say it a little too much cause whenever I ask him a question he will say, "um no" (usually). He says no so cute too, he almost sings it. E loves to sing, she also likes to count to three and yells the three. Tonight I taught them how to sing with their noses pinched and they think it is so funny, especially when I do it. Sometimes I worry because when I compare them to some of the kids in nursery they seem so far behind but I try to remind myself that each kid is different and twins are especially that way. I am so proud of them though for all that they can do and just really love them sooo much and can't imagine how we went for so long without them.

Doing something right

So Ben gets after me sometimes that I put too much into the blog and that we should go private but that's not something that I want to do. Tonight he was reading a letter about internet security and when he googled our names...nothing! He said he was proud of me for having some security and that maybe I was doing okay and keep it up. So thanks hon for telling me thanks and acknowledging that I am trying to keep our family safe!
