Our life with these two precious babies--what an adventure!

Busybodies...

The babies have been so active lately. I think they're both going through growth spurts, and maybe having developmental growth spurts too. They are so much fun and so interactive, going 100-miles-per-hour, all day long.

Jackson went to the hockey rink yesterday morning with Daniel, so was sporting his L.A. Kings shirt.


I am determined that Addison will wear a headband. So far, I've been successful (if you can call it that) in 2 minute stretches...


Jackson is transitioning from two naps a day to one. Some days, he still really needs two, though he fights his afternoon nap--other days, he really doesn't want a nap, and there aren't too many ill effects (read: cranky baby) if he doesn't get one. Well, yesterday he decided he was NOT going to take a morning nap. So here he is, playing outside with a hockey stick, NOT smiling because he is tired because he would NOT take a nap.


Addison is a serial shoe remover. You can't even get out the door (let alone down the stairs) without her removing a shoe or two. Here she is in action, literally running across the grass to bring me the shoe that she just took off...


Mom, I want the camera! Why won't you just give it to me already!?





For some reason, this picture almost makes me want to cry--Addison had climbed up on the bench all by herself, so Daniel just sat down next to her. She looks like such a big girl in this picture. Man, these babies need to slow down and stop growing up so fast!

Love my babies!

We are blessed with really bright kids. Their new thing is identifying their body parts. It started with Addison lifting her shirt up and showing us her belly. So, we asked her where her belly is, and she showed us. They can show us where their ears, eyes, mouth, nose, toes, feet, and bellies are. In the car yesterday, Mary mentioned that the more she is around other kids (she's been picking up some babysitting gigs on the side in anticipation of the holidays), the more she realizes how smart and special our kids are. Amen to that, sister--we do have some really outstanding, bright, inquisitive kids who are so full of personality. LOVE THEM!
