Quick update

We have been spending most of our time lately just playing with our new toys....




These are the toys that say ages 3+ but SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO should not say that since it requires that bigger people put them together (and sometimes have their feelings hurt when they are destroyed 10 minutes after putting them together - hee hee)



Gotta love twins!!!  Isn't this just too cute?!?!?!?

Jingle Rails!!

Grandma & Papaw joined us to visit Jingle Rails at the museum - the boys loved it!!  It was a really neat train display. 










Then we watched a movie that showed everyone putting it together!! 


Then we played in a wigwam

Happy 2011!!

Can't believe a new year is here - where on earth did 2010 go? Seems like it just began and now it is over and a new year is here!! We celebrated with some friends last night and then got some things done around the house today. Here are a few shots of the boys from the last couple days!!!


 
The boys got our phones and were trying to play games!!!  It is amazing how techy kids are!! 



I should have known better than trying to clean out the pantry with the kids around!  They wanted to sample everything!! 


They were making some meowsic for me!! 

Baylee loves to show off his "donut face"

Post vacation catch up....

The bad thing about going on vacation in December is the month FLIES by even faster!! So I know I am way behind on pictures so here you go....

Of course the other thing in December is our birthday - thanks to a co-worker of mine, birthday presents started last week!! 





We ventured out to Christmas at the Zoo - we had to bundle up though because it was COLD!!!

Writting letters to Santa


Wonder what they were asking for - my guess is trains!!!

Excited to see "Mr Ray" - make special note that Baylee is the one next to the glass - earlier in the summer he was TERRIFIED to be close to the glass!! 


We bought a train for the Christmas tree - the boys loved it!!


We went to Ohio over the weekend to meet with my mom's family and have lunch.  the boys got some sprinkles for dessert - you should have seen the mess on the floor - I am guessing we are banned from ever going back there!! 



All the great grandkids were there so we had to do a photo op!!! 


Afterward we went to Bass Pro Shop and the boys loved seeing the animals - here they were petting a reindeer! 


As soon as we got home, before jackets came off, they went to see the train!!!


Today (Thursday) was their THIRD birthday - we started the day with a present!! 

Yep - it was Thomas stuff!!!  This thing may have said ages 3+ but I think it was missing a number and should have said ages 30+ - it was a pain to put together!!!  I have to say my heart sank a little when Rylee tore it down tonight (it is megablocks) - I am thinking about supergluing it in position. 


We went to the State museum for some fun today - we were also going to go to the Children's museum but we didn't make it....they were fine though because there were trains!!!



Waiting to see Santa


Riding Santa's train!!!



Riding a boat!!!


We ran into our "cousin" Abby while we were there - they all insisted on holding hands - it was too stinking cute!!!






Came home and opened another present


Then had cupcakes!!!!





Then before bedtime we had one more present - Mickey had brought it to them from Disney!!  DUFFY bear!!
