Blooming Tomato's

I had wanted to grow something this summer with the girls. So, with the help of Grandpa we planted a large container garden containing big tomato's, grape tomato's & green peppers. Here's a few pics of our prize winners. The girls have been so thrilled to watch them grow from green to red. They know once they are red we can eat them...to which they cry, yummy, my Grandpa do this....mommies never get any credit...oh well, enjoy!

Colors of the Rainbow

We are learning to color...we almost never eat crayons these days. I have to say I am so happy that Crayola makes non-toxic, washable crayons. As we have learned to color both of my girls have eaten a crayon or 2 each and getting all of it of their mouths is quite a process. BUT, I am happy to say we have learned how to use our fine motor skills and how to color without eating a crayon. Here are Emma and Sarah coloring at Grandma's house over this past weekend.

Long time coming

I have not blogged in a very long time. Life has taken over, plus I wasn't sure I had anything worthy to say. The girls turned 2 on March 1st and have turned into lovely little toddlers. They are funny, witty and big time repeaters...their current favorite to repeat is when I call their daddy, my husband, by his first name. If momma calls out Michael, they will repeat his name over and over again...it is very funny. They also call him Honey, Daddy, Michael, like it is his one long name. Here is a current pic...this was taken on the slide at Grandma & Grandpa's house. Enjoy!

Can you say cold?

So it has been a really long time since I posted, no excuses just lazy. So it is so cold & rainy and the crazy thing is I have serious cabin fever, go figure. But being the good mommy I am I won't make the babies go out in the cold rain just so I can have a starbucks and go to target.. The girls are growing like weeds and in 46 days they will be 2. I will be the mom to twin two year olds...OMG!!! Seems like yesteday they were this big....and weighed 4 pounds....now they weigh 25....yikes.

Double Blessings

It is 10:30pm on Christmas Eve and Santa has just finished delivering his gifts to our house. You should see all the bounty these little angel elves are getting. Many baby dolls and many doll accessories. That Santa sure knows his stuff. Well....Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

Cold toes

Today it is finally cold outside. The last 2 weeks have been hot. 70 at least on most days. Today finally it is cold, about 50, not as cold as some places but finally if feels like December. So the girls and I have cold toes...and cold fingers....YEAH! But I hear it will be hot on Christmas...that sucks. I hate a hot Christmas.

Happy Holidays

It has been a while since I posted, sorry, the holidays are going by so fast that I can't seem to keep up. But this past weekend Michael and I took the girls to a Christmas party that the twins group we belong to hosted. Santa was there but the girls would have none of him. SO, here is a cute picture of Michael and the girls. Hope everyone has a great holiday and keeps their family close. We love you all!
