New Hat and Mittens

I bought the girls a new hat and mittens for our morning walks so they can be toasty warm.
I do have to say so myself they are just the cutest girls. They kept them on long enough for me to get pictures and then they started grabbing at each others hats. ADORABLE!!!

More Pumpkin Patch

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Pumpkin Patch today and man was it beautiful outside. The perfect day to go.
The girls had a blast. I want to go in the AM because I can get better photos and I also want ot dress them in some color. Now that I have been I have some ideas for pictures. I left my big lens at home and I think I would like to take it and get some photos from a distance. The pumpkins were picked over but we still found two we liked. I will definitely go earlier next year and it will be so much fun because the girls will be older. I have a few more pictures to share with you. I took so many and I need to delete a bunch. I sometimes have a problem deleting them.

Milestones

The girls are eating regular food. They are both great eaters. Presley will gobble her peas up really fast. She does the same thing with other foods. I think she really loves to do it herself. Brooke is also a good eater but she is a slower eater. It takes her a while to get her food in her mouth she drops a lot. But she loves all foods. She is not picky at all.
This morning we went for a walk and I bundled them up. Brooke took off her hat and blanket by the time I could run to get my camera. I found those hats in the dollar bin at Target. Brooke has the pumpkin hat and Presley has the black cat hat. Brooke doesn't like to leave her hat on but Presley doesn't bother with removing her hat. They are both so different but so special in their own little way. Brooke is standing alone a lot. Yesterday she took two little steps towards me. She is so adorable, she will stand alone and I will clap and she will start to laugh the cutest laugh. It melts my heart. Presley loves to dance, she will just start shaking her head from side to side.
The girls are a little better today. They still have runny noses but seem to be better. We went to the dentist I use to work for to visit yesterday. The girls had a ball and it was great to see everyone. I am so lucky to be able to stay at home with my wonderful children. Thank you Gary for allowing me to be with our children. It is such a blessing. The girls are taking a nap so I must go get some things done before they wake up.

New Stroller

We were suppose to do the Juvenile Diabetes walk on Saturday but the girls were sick again. I think it is another virus because I am now sick ugh! and Gary is out of town this week. We bought this new jogger for the walk and for our daily walks in the morning. It is so much easier to walk with this stroller than the other stroller. I can't believe the difference. The girls have to get use to it because they can't set up, they have to lay back. One more month and they will be 1 year old. Time has flown by, I can't believe my little girls will be one. I must go the girls are crying.

Little Faces

Presley was just the cutest thing when she was walking behind the walker. She couldn't stop laughing. Doesn't her face say it all? She will kill me later for posting this picture but I loved the look on her face. She is my little talker, she jabbers all day. I think I am in trouble with her because she is really becoming a Mamas girl. I notice it more when Gary is gone and I am the only one she wants. Brooke is starting to talk a little more but she is my little walker. She walks around everywhere with the walker and when she gets stuck she knows how to walk in front of it and start walking the other way with it. She has been standing alone and balancing for a short while. She is so ready to take off and walk. I better keep my video camera ready. I was thinking today how big they are getting and before too long they will not be babies anymore. Now I know why people want more children because they miss the baby stage. I have been missing my craft room. I have been too busy and tired to do anything lately. I did play with my cricket a little last night and am still lovin it.
I found out last week the LSS (Recollections) is closing. I am so sad, that store was my release sometimes. I loved to go there after I put the girls to bed and just visit with everyone and of course, shop. I am going to miss the whole atmosphere. Doesn't corporate understand what it means to those who are addicted to scrapbooking. I guess they don't or they wouldn't be shutting the doors. :( It will be a sad, sad day when the final day is here.

Birthday Girl

Here is a few photos from the birthday party I went to on Saturday night. My friend Chris turned 40. I wore my Tattoo shirt and it was a hit. As you can see in the photo it looks like you have tattoos all over your arms. Gary bought me this shirt when we went to Grapefest and we knew it would be a fun shirt. Happy 40th Birthday Chris.

You really know how to host a party.

Gymboree

Hello! I know I haven't posted in a week but the girls really keep me busy. I try to post when they take their nap but I have to get other things done while they are napping.
These pictures were taken at Gymboree class, we go every saturday morning. Brooke and Presley really have a ball. There is another set of twins Grant and Bryce in our class. we sometimes have a set of girl triplets visit the class. I can't even imagine one more but I know if I had to, I could do it. We had a busy weekend. We had a lot of family time together but also had parties and picnics to attend. I am glad the weekend is over. I still can't believe the girls will be one next month. I decided to have a family birthday because it will be easier and the girls don't have as many friends their age yet. But of course we will have Clay and Josh at the party but they are the only babies. I hear my little angels stirring. Have a great week!

The Birthday Party

Here are the pictures I promised. The birthday boys Josh and Clay with their individual cakes. They are so cute.
Gary giving the girls a ride and Clay wanted to help.
The last photo was of all the kids as you can see it was hard to get the children together and looking at the camera at the same time. Reed was missing from the picture. He was a little upset. It was such a fun day and the girls had a busy day and were really good with it all. Happy Birthday Clay and Josh! We love you.

New Stuff

I went to a sale on Thursday night called Divine Consign (divineconsigne.net) I was able to go before the public because my friend sold her items in the sale. these are a few of the things I got for the girls. Can you say early birthday presents. I bought the kitchen for 20.00 it was like new. They love the little piano as you can see they are intensely playing. Brooke loves to push Presley around on the little car, I can see already I will have to get two of those when the time comes. I also bought a Little Tykes slide for 18.00. I love getting good deals especially on items they won't use for very long. I am definitely going to sell some items in the next sale. My house looks like a playground. We went to Clay and Josh birthday party today. I will tell you more tomorrow and post pictures tomorrow. We had a great day with the girls today. They were in the best spirits. We also took them to Church this morning and they were so cute in their classroom. When we went to pick them up the lady said they didn't cry but she said, "They sure know how to clear a shelf." I then looked over and all the toys were off of the shelf. Too Cute! They were having their snack when we arrived and Brooke was just swinging her little legs and eating her snack with a big smile on her face. We couldn't see Presley's face but I'm sure she was smiling too because she always has a permament smile on her face. I also recieved my Cricut on Friday. I have only played with it for a short while but can already tell I am going to LOVE it!!!!! Thanks for visiting and have a great week.
