Ella

It's always sooo hard to get a picture of Ella. She sees the camera and runs the other way. I was playing the new app on my phone and got these pictures. They're better than nothing!

Safety First

Helping Ella get her helmet on. At least hers isn't backwards. :)

We headed to Winona for a couple of days during spring break. I hadn't been there since Christmas and it was so nice to be there. We played outside, sat on the porch, saw Murry Catherine, and just hung out together. We're never there long enough for me. Some pictures from our time there-Ella wouldn't cooperate so no pictures of her.

My handsome big boy.

Miss Priss Kate.

Aunt Heather and Reed.

My Girls {With Pictures By Jack}

Having twins really is fun. Sure, it's busy and there were times when they were tiny babies that I was so tired that I didn't even know who I was holding. But it's really fascinating watching them grow up. They really are each other's best friend. At times they fight like cats and dogs but they love each other.

It's amazing how different they are-in looks as well as personality. One is all girly girl who loves the color pink and dressing up like a princess and pretending to get married. A little bit of a drama queen who is prone to small freak outs if she gets dirty or sees a bug. Quite the conversationalist, she will talk to anybody!! She loves dance class and chick fil a.

The other is girly with a little bit of tough girl thrown in for good measure. She is as tough as nails-she could fall off the roof then hop up and say 'I okay!" A daredevil who has no problem getting dirty, she's also quite attached to her big brother. Real easy going but when she gets mad watch out! Loves to dance, watch cartoons and go to "Chick Way" with Miss Jessica.

Love my sweet girls!

Little Redhead?

Spring?

The weather was beautiful Saturday so we headed to my big backyard again. once again they had a great time!

Sweet sisters.

Hanging out in the hammock.

Reed gave up and went to sleep.

Reed-4 Months {a little late}

So my plan to post Reed's monthly update on time every month just didn't work out this month. Maybe next time. The 4th month has been all about smiling! All. the. time. He also laughed his sweet little laugh for the first time. What a sweet sound! He sleeps form about 7:00 to 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That's great but he does not sleep much at all during the day. If I'm lucky he'll nap for about an hour in his swing. Hopefully that will change. At his 4 month check -up he weighed 15 lbs. (90th percentile) and was 24 1/2 inches long (75th percentile). Big boy! He obviously eats well! Since the new recommendation is to wait until 6 months for solids he hasn't had any "real food" yet. I think we'll probably try some in the next week or so. Don't think I can wait until 6 months.

He's wearing mostly 6 month clothes and size 2 diapers. He doesn't wear shoes so who knows about that. He likes his exersaucer and has started trying to grab toys now. Everything goes in his mouth. This has been such a fun month with Reed. I can't wait to see what his 5th month brings!
