one for daddy (he's in Asia until Nov. 10th)



Lily laughter... she was really going for it before I got the video camera out, but you get the idea.


Uh oh.... he's figured out how to open it himself... now what? I had to put shoes on and run into the yard to get him... then purell his feet when we got in.. YUCK!

Playing together

Jason and Lily are playing together more and more. It's so fun to see... not to mention the entertainment factor is nice. The real benefit of twins is really showing now! ;)

Here are some videos and some pictures.

Here they are just playing in mid diaper change and getting dressed for the day.


Here's some play dough from this a.m. Lily LOVED it and spent about 20 or 30 mins mixing all the colors together.


And some random pictures.

My name is Mommy!

Jason has taken to calling my MommY instead of mama. It's so cute! :)

I was thinking last night about how different my life is now and how much happier I am. I certainly am not who I once thought I was .... where did I get the idea that I was a cut throat business woman.. I so am NOT! I really enjoy the flexibility of my current gig... well, flexibility around the kid's nap schedule (as loosely as I can use that term these days!) I'm so lucky to be able to be home w/ them... and hopefully when the time comes I will be able to work part time long term so I can continue to be there for them. :)

Here are some pics. Lame post I know.. sorry. Kiddos are upstairs NOT taking their nap so I think we're going to get out for a walk then try again. We've got to take advantage of this weather before it turns too cold for mama to get her mind around.

Got Milk? We've been trying different nut milks in my new kitchen gadget... the VITAMIX (love this thing). It makes the smoothest yummies smoothies.:

We went to the zoo for halloween (on the 21st.. it was so crowded that we just hit the park after about 5 mins.) I totally lamed out and didn't buy them halloween costumes or put much effort into it. These are buntings that Pat and Joan gave us at our shower. Jason is a bear and Lily is a kitty. :) Only a few crappy photos from the zoo so I won't even post them... it's hard to take pics and watch the kids. ha

And here are our friends - Marie (mom), Charlotte "Coco" (the cow), and Kate (the flower). Side note: Coco is Jason's new favorite word.

The kid's new obsession is Crackers!!! here they are BEGGING me for yet another cracker.. they do this many times a day. I'm not sure if they really want the cracker or they just like to carry them around. I think Phoebe eats most of them.

We are busy firming up plans for my trip to Portland, Or in February. I'm so excited... yes, it's months away, but that's how I do things. ha :) I'm planning to bring Lily (most likely, could end up being Jason) ... it will be hard to be away from one of the babies for a week, but I know it's good for all of us. I can't believe Tom goes away for weeks at a time. No wonder he is always asking me if I'm showing them his picture and making sure they don't forget him.

Some pics

Sorry to be so MIA lately... times are changing.. babies are getting Busier.. (if you can believe it)... and the last two days they have decided that napping is not a cool thing to do. They took a whopping - maybe - 30 mins total yesterday. I put them down twice and both times they talked/whined/screamed through both. I think there might have been about 30 mins of sleeping around 2:45pm yesterday... so far today they are doing a repeat performance. AH! Please tell me other people when through this and their kids went back to napping eventually... this is just a 'transition' phase right?

Bye bye daddy!

Having fun and enjoying our prolonged summer/fall! :) Gotta run babies up and it's time for lunch then we are off to the gym. I'll let someone else deal w/ these non-nappers for a bit. That said they really haven't been too bad considering. Right now they are upstairs cracking each other up! :) Love the sounds of baby laughter.. oh and crib shaking. Gotta go! :)
