Thanks Maw Maw

I don't know what I would do without my grandmother! She is such a WONDERFUL, LOVING person. I always thought I was spoiled by her, but I don't compare to Aubrey and Lainey now! They always bring the biggest smile to her face and that puts a smile on my face. We told her that we had taken the girls to the park and how much they loved the swings and that we were going to have to buy the girls some for home. Well, with that being said, the girls got new swings Sunday afternoon thanks to their great grandmother. While we were swinging the girls in their new swings they were giggling and having the best time so I called Maw Maw so she could hear them and you could tell by her voice how tickled she was hearing the girls having such a good time! Thank you Maw Maw! We Love You!!

First Trip to the Park

Saturday since the weather was FINALLY nice outside, we decided to take the girls to the park. They LOVED the swings. They laughed, but spent most of the time watching everyone else. There were a ton of kids there. Dan also got brave and held the girls as they went down the slide. It was a very fun family day for the four of us.

(needless to say...we will all be glad when it does get warmer, because the girls are tired of socks and shoes!)

Happy Valentine's Day

Our little sweethearts. I dont have any pictures of my big sweetheart because he is in the bed with the stomach virus! What a wonderful way to spend Valentine's Day! Hope you all have a loving day!

Date Night

Friday night Dan and I went to Kobe Japanese Steak house and to watch the movie Valentine's Day as our Valentine Date. We had a good time and even went to my favorite place...TARGET! lol It was good to have a few hours just Dan and I, but we were both ready to get back to see the girls. To pay Moma D for keeping the girls we stopped by Krispy Kreme and got HOT AND FRESH doughnuts! It was wonderful date night!

Oh what a mess

I thought since the girls are starting to teeth I would try the biter biscuits...thank goodness for bath time afterwards. Dan and I got a good laugh from the mess they made, but they seemed to have enjoyed every minute of it!

Eight Months Old

If you were to look up Drama Queen in the dictionary...you would find this sweet baby's picture :)

Yes, Lainey is our little drama queen. An example, today while taking their pictures, when I sat her in the chair as you can see she was all miss priss, she smiled for me and made taking her picture a breeze.

I go to take a picture of them both of them....not so much! See picture below....

Aubrey is our laid back child, she might not look at the camera exactly the way I want her to, but at least she is acting on her best behavior.

Ok, I will sum up, not all the time is Lainey the drama queen, she does have her moments, she can start crying and sound like she is in the worst of pain, but the minute you pick her up, she is laughing( I think she is laughing at whoever picks her up, she is probably thinking "sucker")

Aubrey does have her moments, she is no angel all the time, she just isn't dramatic as her sister!

I will say this, the good Lord above has blessed us sooo much. They are wonderful babies, that hardly ever act up. If they do start acting up, then something has to be wrong. They play well together, just don't let a hair bow, sock, or paci get in the way.

As of right now:

• they are both sitting up alone



• starting to slowly hold their bottles by themselves



• still rocking on those knees, so be on the look out for an update at anytime that we have a crawler
  


• both are cutting the bottom two front teeth, be on the look for that update as well when they arrive



• they have started eating puffs, which they are like little vacuums when it comes to those things!
  


• "da da da" is ALL I HEAR! I am ready for "ma ma ma" PLEASE just ONCE!


• they will every now and then wave "bye bye" still working on that

Our babies are growing up and to be honest I am surprised I haven't had an emotional break down thinking about it....it could still happen! If it does, please send strawberry ice cream, brownies and dt mt dew for me to drown in my sorrows! lol
