Washing hands

The boys have decided that they love having their hands washed. It's cute to watch how excited they get when they are waiting for their turn. But also annoying because every time I wash my hands now, I have to wash theirs too.

Caught on the table

The other night when the twins would not go to sleep, it was way past their bed time, I caught them playing on the table. Sorry that my camera didn't focus.

Busy Boys!

What a busy day we had yesterday. The twins were getting into everything. After their  bath William ran around their room and peed everywhere before I could get his diaper on. They have discovered that they can open the junk drawer just enough to pull things out, I found them with batteries, scissors, screws and paper all day long they just kept going to it. I tried to pull it out but then all of their toys went into the hole and filled my pan cupboard. They would not stay off of the table, every time I turned around they were on it, one time they had the scissors playing on the table. They wouldn't even sit still long enough to change their diapers and I had to fight the one not getting their diaper changed over the wipes while I did the other one. I was trying to load the dishwasher and they kept unloading it, throwing dishes everywhere. Wow it was a very busy day and they completely wore me out, hopefully today will be better.

Helping hands

I'm so thankful for guardian angels! Yesterday I took the boys outside to play in the pool, they love to splash in the water and play with the hose. We had been outside for a while and I decided to run in really fast and get a popsicle for them. We have a very tall house and there is a deck on the back of it with very steep, scary stairs. When I went back outside Jaxon had started to climb the deck and he got very excited that I had a popsicle, so he stood up and walked right off the stairs falling to the cement pad below banging his head, I heard it hit, scared me to death. He got a bruise on the side of his head, a little cut above his ear and some bruises on his arm. I'm so thankful that my little guys are being watched over by angels. I know without a doubt the his fall was softened by them. He cried for a while, which is to be expected, but he bounced back to being his happy little self and today he acted like nothing even happened, the bruise on his head is even gone. I'm very thankful to have my Heavenly Father close by at all times and that he sends his angels to watch and protect my children!

Teaming up

I put the gate in the doorway to our room so I could open the window and door to let it air out. Well the twins both worked together and pulled it down and then ransacked our room. They grabbed my drink from last night off my nightstand and dumped it everywhere, luckily I caught them before they did too much damage. The terrible twos are starting to show up in them.

Two little monkeys

I can't believe the things that my boys find to hang on. They climb up on the front of the stove and hold on to the handle for the oven and hang, we had to buy a lock for it. They climb up the drawers, with them closed and hang off of the counter. They hang off the couch, the microwave cart, dishwasher and even the table. They know that they are not supposed to climb on all these things so they ganged up on me. One will do something to catch my attention while the other one climbs. I never thought I'd have two smart little monkeys running around my house :)

Sunshine!

We have been really enjoying the sunshine at our house! The twins love to go outside and play!

We went and got a swimming pool and filled it with sand for them to have a sandbox.
 They love to dig in it and fill their buckets!

We also have another pool for them to play with water.
 They love to stomp in it and make it splash and boy do they get soaked!



And there is nothing better then getting to sit outside on a hot sunny day and eat Popsicles!

New addition to the family!

We went to the doctor in February and found out that we are having another baby! We have had 2 ultrasounds and they both showed only 1, we are having another boy and I'm due on September 20! The twins won't be 2 yet so I'm scared but also very excited! This pregnancy has been a cake walk compared to my other one. I have not been nearly as sick, with the twins I had to get up every night and puke, this one I have only puked twice and I almost 25 weeks along! I even keep forgetting that I'm pregnant, but then the twins do keep me pretty busy and I don't have as much time to think about it as I did with them. We are very excited to welcome this new little guy to our family and can't wait to meet him!

Silly Boys

The twins have a elephant that blows balls out it's trunk, they love to put things in it. Today while they were eating their snack of corn chex cereal they discovered that it blew the cereal out of the trunk very well. Now the elephant is full of cereal and it won't come out.

It has to be William

So William has had diarrhea all week and has horrible diaper rash right? Well today he comes into the kitchen with the diaper rash cream in his month and he's eating it. Oh boy right, it gets better. So I call poison control and the lady tells me that he should be fine the worst that can happen is it will get him diarrhea! Great I'm really hoping it doesn't, he's only had one poopy diaper today and is acting ten times better.

Diaper Rash

William has been poopy a lot lately and has horrible diaper rash. So this morning he wakes up screaming and of course he's poopy, so I change him and get him a bottle to help him calm down. Well dad comes into the picture and he wants nothing to do with me. And the whole time dad is holding him, William keeps giving me a look like I'm the enemy, because I'm always the one changing his diaper. Awe the joys of motherhood 

Best of friends!

I always use to hear people talk about how their twins were best friends, and I have to say it's pretty awesome to see my little guys playing and laughing with each other! I love the thought that they will have a best friend for their whole life. They have figured out that one of them can distract me so the other one can get into something that they know they're not suppose to. The other day I was changing William's diaper and Jaxon came over and stole my glasses off of my face so that William could get away, they are very clever little guys. It's so fun to watch them working together at this young of age! But sometimes it is not so much fun to have 1 against 2 ;)
