Playtime

Addison (pointing to bedroom): Wanna go play?
Wes: Yes! Cars?
Addi: Ok!
They held hands and walked to their bedroom. I love twins! What would I do if they didn't have their best friend around all the time?

Time-out

I just dropped an entire glass pitcher of koolaid on the floor. The glass shattered and there was koolaid all over. Addi says "Uh oh! Mom needs a time-out!" Yes. I think I do!

Mommy thoughts

I was getting ready for church today and I wondered why on earth I don't own a striped maxi skirt.  If you look at me- mormon 24-year-old mother of twins with a third on the way it just seems like something that should automatically be in my closet.  Especially a grey and black one.

Oh brother, where art thou?

Woke up to Addi crying at 6 this morning. That is way too early for my kids to ever be allowed to wake up. I walk in and she says "MOM! I can't find my brother!" So I had to lift her up out of bed and show her he was just snuggled into a corner of his crib she couldn't see. She calmed down and got really tired and went right back to sleep. So my question, was she worried about her brother, or worried that her brother was getting to do something spectacular that she wasn't?;)

A day at the park!

I'm finally getting a couple of days in a row where I'm feeling good.  Not that I was super sick or anything my first trimester, but as one pregnancy update email put it, "You will find that your get up and go has gotten up and left."  Yep, pregnancy fatigue got me bad this time.  But the kids were troopers and we watched lots of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and are two weeks away from finishing the first trimester which means more and more good days ahead.  

But since today was a good day we decided to to something wonderfully fun, enjoy the fall weather, and go to the park.  I have not been doing very good practicing with my DSLR camera I got for my birthday, so I took it along and tried out some of the different settings to see what I could get working.  It was a blast and my kids are dang cute- so here are the results.  All of them. ;)
