So one morning last week. Don't ask me which day, they all blur together. I got out the card table and this tent cover that my brothers and I used to play with. Funny I remember the little play house being bigger on the inside!Happy Wes looking through the windowThis kid screams regardless if he is happy or sad. He happy screamed the whole time it was up and cried when I took it down.Are you

Sorry for the long delay in posting. Both Grandmas reprimanded me for not posting and that they look at the blog daily looking for new pictures. All I can say is that twin infants are easier then twin toddlers!Sami and Sidny again. (Ok this one is posed) Think they look good together!Look at all that snow in our backyard. Come on if I wanted snow in February I would still live in Utah....hee

Sami and Wes have each had an Er visit and stitches...two months apart.The fall happened on December 9th. This was from our Christmas card "photo shoot" days before.She tripped and fell and hit her nose on the corner of our end table. I was out of the room with Wes. So we can't blame it on him. I noticed that she actually is a bit clumsy and falls alot. Pair that with being a bit fearless and I'm

Weston thought playing in the carrier base was fun until he found out he was stuck. Looks a little worried huh? So I laughed at him and got my camera before rescuing him.Sami really enjoyed lunch one day this week. I'm trying to remember what we ate...ooh chef boyardee. Wes wouldn't touch it.Wes at our playgroup on Friday.Sami kept finding random things. First some other kids balloons, then the

We had a fun filled Saturday. Mary Kay had their annual Family Day at Six Flags. We think the twins enjoyed themselves. We were able to take them on 4 rides.Sami and I in the hot air balloon ride.Daddy and Weston in the hot air balloon ride.Weston, Daddy and Sami on the train.Our family in the big chair.Seth and I went to an 80's party and actually got a babysitter for the kids.

Sami has decided hats are the thing. She fusses till I put it on her, walks around to show it off (I guess), pulls it off and we start all over again. She sure is a silly little thing.Sami strutting with Wes's hat.(note: she walks, he crawls)Wes thought getting into the trash can lid would be fun. He is intrigued by so many odd things.Still wearing the hat...I was worried it was just Wes's hat

My mom came to visit about a week before the twins birthday. So we celebrated with her. Opened presents and ate cupcakes. On their actual birthday, the twins opened gifts from Seth and I. Then I took them to the mall to the play area and we had lunch with friends. I also took them to Toys R us and they did "a little" something for the kids. Gotta have pink and blue cupcakes. Didn't get totally

This is how we watched 2 seconds of conference."Look we figured out how to open the cupboards!""Would you like to see my red walker toy mom?""Stuff's got to be better on the other side of this gate. How do we get there?""I know...I make this look good!""Not sure why mom put this thing on my head. But I like this shoe. "Wes loves books. Sami loves walking with her hippo.

Yeah... I have to apologize again. I know you want to see pictures of the twins. I'm going to blame my sweet, messy eating, loves to pull all my plastic dishes out of my island, crawling way too fast for me almost one year olds. Well when I write this they are not one yet. Here are some of my favorite (ten) month pictures...Weston dressed up for church and very intrigued in his shoes. Love the

After years of shying away from the dreaded baby shower...I gave a surprise shower for my friend Monica on Saturday. (now she is not speaking to me...=)disclaimer: Please do not take the above statement too seriously. I was teasing. She is speaking to me and very appreciative of the shower. For all of you who know I have been working on this for a few months now. I wanted to post some pictures. I

After over a year of trying off and on to get it sold, it's finally gone. Seth is sad to see if go, but we'll be better off without it.

It was a pretty lazy day. As the kids and I stayed home all day, and I showered at 12 when they took their naps. But I got calls from sweet family and friends.I got to eat at Pf Changs...one of my favorites with my awesome husband. (what's a date?)Monica watched the twins, made me a cake and put this saying that I love on my wall. (All while I was on a date) Holding my son while I'm getting sung

I think the kids really enjoyed the play area at North Richland Hills mall today. The last "mushy cushy" play area I took them to, they didn't venture much and Wes fussed. Today Wes crawled right to the front during Rhyme time and he actually played at the mall.This play area was empty. I think the abundance of kids at the other malls overwhelms the twins. Sami pulls herself to her feet on

Weston staring down Cooper. Crawling babies....aagh! (Did you notice where Cooper spends the day. His choice, not mine)It's Bedtime. So yeah, I put them in the laundry basket just to take pictures.

We drove to Utah last week for 2 reasons; to visit the grandparents and as a birthday present to Seth (he misses the mountains). You would think that we would have a horrible time traveling 22+ hours each way with 7 month old twins....but they must take after their mother, and love road trips!Weston was smiling MOST of the trip!Samantha just loves her tongue. Grandma Rand and Grandma Marla

We took some pictures of the twins this morning before church (we were actually ready early). Note the doc bands are gone. They came off on Monday. I hope to get to JcPenney's this week for some professional pictures. They have changed so much in 3 months. What a cutie. I'm so happy she can wear bows again.HAPPY!!!So it takes a million shots to get one good one of 2 babies. I thought these were

My babies are growing up way to fast....they turned 7 months yesterday!They are not sitting up on their own yet. But they are improving daily. Weston is too long for his carrier. So Friday night we said bye bye to hauling those heavy things around and installed new car seats in my car. Twins in the rocker in their room.That doesn't look comfortable.Such a sweet boy.

Yesterday after we gave the babies baths and we were dressing them I thought they were so cute without the helmets. I grabbed the camera and took a bunch of pictures with us holding them. Hopefully both babies will be done with the helmets in 2 weeks!Today at church about 3 different people commented on how cute Sami's chubby cheeks are. I think these pictures show her rosy, chubby cheeks off
