Where does the time go...

Well I have good intentions everyday of posting but some days that just doesn't work out. On Sunday we worked on trying to get a Christmas picture that was just right - well with two 11 month olds who don't really understand "sit pretty, look at the camera, and smile" that just doesn't always work out. Here are a few of the attempts....

Needless to say mommy finally settled on one so look for it coming to a mailbox near you soon!! While maybe not the perfect picture - it is a pretty good one and like i said with two 11 month olds you kind of have to take what you can get sometimes :-)

So since we decided on a picture and I felt like I had to get my Christmas cards done and out (I am not used to having to piecemeal my Christmas shopping, decorations, etc but am happily learning to adjust this year) - the boys and I got to take a solo trip to Costco yesterday without daddy so we could pick up our cards!! It went fine - the boys fell asleep on the way up there and did great at the store and on the way home. We did some more foods yesterday - however, much to uncle Bob's dismay neither of the boys were thrilled with the doughnuts they were offered on Sunday at church!! Mommy's job just got a little bit harder this week with Baylee figuring out how to climb up the stoop leading to the kitchen - he ended up in there on his own twice yesterday!!

I have talked before about how much they like mirrors and usually fight over the little ones that they have as toys - well in their room their entire closet doors are mirrors and they LOVE those as well. Generally if I am doing something with one of them and the other one is on the floor they head right for the mirror and "play" with the little boy on the other side - it is sooooo cute. here is a picture of Baylee playing with his "friend" while I was changing Rylee...

Gotta love this Indiana weather - it is 46 degrees right now, which isn't bad considering it is December but it is pouring down rain outside. We do have a doctor's appointment today but other than that we will probably stay in and dry today - hope everyone is having a great day!!

I just found your blog a couple weeks ago.I love reading other blogs about twins,especially from Vietnam.I have spent alot of time catching up on your story.These pictures are so good.My two have been home for a year and I have only been able to get a couple of good shots of them together.It is amazing how you are able to blog so much with just having got home with twins.I was on survival mode only for 12 weeks after we got home.Our son was walking at 10 months and made things harder on Mommy.We also had and still have serious sleep issues that keep Mommy and Daddy sleep deprived.Keep blogging,I love your blog!!
