Bubbles, bubbles, everywhere bubbles...

Around our house we are finding that we have to develop a secret language for certain things/activities or else the twiners go ga-ga at the very mention of these certain things.  For instance, the babies love the pool and I am terrified to take all 3 kids in the pool by myself - without proper adult supervision (aka Scott) - so if we mention the words SWIMMING or POOL the babes get crazy excited thinking that it's wa-wa time. So the code word for the pool at the Herrick home is HOLLY... and yes Sam came up with the name all on her own... so if we ask you to come to the HOLLY with us we mean come over and swim between the hours of 1 and 3pm while the babes are in slumberland.

So you're probably wondering what this little tid-bit has to do with bubbles. Well, just the word bubbles conjures up some magical twinkle in all 3 of the kids eyes. We haven't quite come up with a code for bubbles yet - mostly because it's just, too sweet to watch them get so excited for bubble-time. Bubbles just seem to do that to them... it's so pure... it's so fantastic... it's the sweetest thing!




And I really did try to get pictures of B & B trying to chase all of the bubbles all over the yard but they were just to quick for me and my photo-trigger finger.

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Wee little princess...

Oh man, where does one begin to describe our little peanut. For starters I still get a kick out of the random folks that ask me almost weekly what the age difference is between the B's... then the genuine look of shock and awe when I tell the unsuspecting person that they are in fact twins. Let's see...what else about Brooke... -She bounces EVERY where she goes...she can never just walk places she has to twirl, bounce, you name it -She is the most amazing UNtrained dancer EVER...at least that's what her Grandma Herrick would say! -She has the most loving heart I have ever witnessed...loves and cares so unconditionally -Wants to be just like her big sister in the worst way -Has my chin...and it's soooo cute! -Her prayers will melt your heart...no joke! -Still prays everyday that her Grandma will be strong and healthy and we don't dare correct her -Always wants to be on the go and constantly asks to go to the mall -Has the sweetest bond with her bro and I...

Random photos...

Whenever I have a photo shoot planned at my house in my little “studio” I always beg and plead with the kiddos to sit for just a second so that I can get the lights and set up just right before the actual shoot. Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]
