Easter

Easter was a great day! The babies wore their Sunday best and we spent the day at Grandma and Grandpa Elliott's for brunch and an egg hunt. The babies are too young to hunt for eggs, but they still enjoyed the sunshine and visiting with family. The weather was perfect!

London and Lyla: 9 Months!

I can't believe London and Lyla are 9 months old!! The time has gone by so quickly. I understand fully now when people say "Remember this time because they grow up so fast." That is so true!

Here are some of the things that the twins are doing now:

London: Sits up by himself, stands by himself while holding onto something, babbles, laughs, shakes toys, can pull to stand on his own, and army crawls and rolls. London's favorite book is "How Do I Love You" by Marion Bauer. He also loves the songs "My Little Buttercup" and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star". London is showing that he's independent and is perfectly content playing by himself. No teeth yet, but he is definitely teething!

Lyla: Sits up by herself, stands by herself while holding onto something, babbles, says mama, laughs, shakes toys, claps her hands, pulls to stand on her own, rolls around and scoots to get things. Lyla loves playing patty cake and peek-a-boo. She loves being held and wants to play with other people. She has two bottom teeth that are completely out and one on the top is making it's way down.

As soon as I think that I have each baby figured out, they change. So we're still learning what their personalities are, but one thing is for sure... they are such happy, sweet babies!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I love all holidays including St. Patrick's Day! The babies wore green of course and after some playtime at home, we spent the day shopping at the mall. :)

London and Lyla: 8 Months

Here are a few pictures I took of the babies at home. They are 8 months old here.

Babies' First Snow!

We took the babies outside to experience their very first snow! They were skeptical at first, but ended up really enjoying it!
My mom bought them these adorable snowsuits. They were toasty warm!

Christmas

The babies had a fantastic first Christmas! They were spoiled like none other and we had a lovely day. We started the day at our house with my family. We had breakfast burritos, cinnamon rolls, and lots and lots of presents! (I have more pictures that I will add once I find them :)

Thanksgiving

We had a fantastic Thanksgiving. We have SO much to be thankful for, so this holiday was especially great. We had dinner at my sister's house with family.

Trying to make the babies smile!
