Happy Easter 2011

Happy Easter! Yesterday was Joshua & Riley's 2nd Easter, it was so funny to see them enjoy it this year compared to last year. The woke up to the Easter Bunny leaving them baskets filled with presents and a egg hunt in our own living room. Then they got to spend a little time with Sarah & Carmelo and they each got shovels and pails for the beach this summer. Then we went to Aunt Alice's house to see Grandma & Pop were we got even more presents from the Easter Bunny. It was an awesome day.

Little things make The Little People Happy

Joshua and Riley have more then there fair share of toys between a full playroom and a full toy box, mind you there is just about double of everything, but does that make them happy or have the time of there life.....No! The boxes that there diapers came turned into "forts" or "houses" as they called it does, check out the pictures and video.

Coloring Easter Eggs

Tonight we colored Easter eggs for the second time. Last year was much neater and they had no clue what was going on, this year there was color on the eggs but more on them....I love it. Chris gets a little nervous, the color all came off there hands in there bath so what is the big deal right??? The main thing is that they had a BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!

23 months old

Well its arrived the twins are 23 months old today which means that we are officially in countdown mode to there 2nd birthday! It feels like just yesterday that I had them it just can't be possible that they are going to be 2!!!!!!!!!!

Alexandra's Sweet Sixteen

In the beginning of April we celebrated Allie's sweet sixteen, the twins had no idea what was in store for them. We arrived at the hall before the party started so the dance floor and all the balloons were in plain site, they were running everywhere. Then the party went into full swing with the DJ going and the lights low and a whole lot of giant people dancing from there point of view, Chris and I were prepared for the worst but got the complete opposite, they were in the middle of it all, they even got swept up a couple of times by Allie and some of her friends to dance. They had a ball and they even got to light a candle. But 10:45 they were passed out in there carriage. There are some cute pictures, even one of me with my mommy!

Chalk

We decided to buy the twins chalk today, so that they could enjoy something that I loved doing as a kid. Joshua loved it as did Riley except she kept asking to take the cap off the chalk first...lol

We found a puddle

Some Summer Weather

It got into the 80's today so we got the twins out for some much needed outdoor time, we went for a nice long walk in the carriage came home ate some lunch took a two hour nap...them not me..:) Then we went out into the backyard with our cars and balls to play. I know that I have been a mom to a boy for almost two years now but today I was a real mom of a real little boy, Joshua played in the dirt for the first time. I was so proud and of course Riley had to try her luck at it because there is no reason why girls can't play in the dirt. They enjoy themselves and now they are fast asleep hopefully dreaming of there day in the "Dirt". Here are some pictures.
