Somehow Heather got them to look the same way. I can never do that.

Just Some Pictures From the Zoo

At least one of them is looking at the camera.
One of the only times I've ever dressed the girls alike. Don't really think I liked it.

Peas, Anyone?

So, I got a little ambitious and decided to make Reed's baby food. Several of my friends have done it so I thought I'd give it a try. My biggest obstacle was the time and the mess involved. So I got the Beaba babycook and it couldn't be any easier. Just steam the food and then puree it all in the same machine. The food is really good! It's bright and colorful and is yummy too. But, Reed definitely was not a fan of peas. He could have cared less about their bright  green color. He just wanted them out of his mouth!
Really, Mom? Gag.


Sweet Sisters {Most of the Time}

Kate looks about 6 years old in this picture.
Silly girls.

Time to Eat!

So after almost 6 months of only nursing, we decided it was time for Reed to try some solids. We had to get a new high chair-the print is a little obnoxious, but it says it's easy to clean so I got it. We tried rice cereal first but Reed thought it was nasty, so we tried some oatmeal. That went over much better. He's growing up WAY too fast!
Ella wanted to be the first to feed baby brother. 
Pretty tasty. Definitely better than rice cereal.

Sweet, smiling boy.

Harding Soccer

Makes me sad that he looks SO grown up!
He had his own cheering section.
And his own water girl.

Old Friends

My very best friend from high school/college, Dana, and her family came through Memphis last week on their way to Mississippi for her sister's wedding. We met at the zoo and enjoyed the beautiful day. She gave me the best possible news-after living in the land of the Yankees for several years, they are headed back to the South. They'll be moving to Murfreesboro in May! An easy drive from Memphis. Hope Stephen is ready for lots of road trips!
Darbie, Ella, Kate, Tucker, and Jack. What a crew!

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!


Scenes From the Donut Shop



Safety First

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

Rice Cereal? No Thank you!

Definitely not a fan.


Our Spring Break in Winona

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!
