I'm seeing double...

07.07.06 - 07.07.08

Well it was two years ago yesterday that the most beautiful babies entered into this world and into our family. I really cannot believe that my babies are 2 years old. We have had so much fun with them over the last 24 months... my how time flies...











Things I have learned and loved over that last 2 years...

2x as many poopy diapers (but that goes without saying :-)

2x as many giggles

2x the cuteness

2x as many people want to stop and touch my babies

2x as much hand sanitizer needed (see above)

2x the snuggles and love

2x the excitement and awe at newly discovered cabinets

2x the fascination with dental floss

2x the love for their blankies and flowers (aka their pacifiers)

2x the cost for a babysitter - thank goodness for grandmas

2x the enjoyment of being a mom


We started their birthday off with a very big breakfast...
this is them looking chipper as always first thing in the morning.

Then later in the evening we had all the family over for swimming, pizza and cake.
This is really how cake should be ate!

Of course Brooke didn't want to have anything to do with messy frosting and cake... she's no fun!  She is definitely our girly-girl.

And this is them showing off their cool new glasses... what cuties!!!



And just for kicks and grins...

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.

Another before and after... this one is not so dramatic...

Before: 4 bandanas (2 zebra print & 2 pink polka dot) After: 1 very ADORABLE bandana dress and 1 super STYLISH bandana shirt Now I know this is not a new concept here, but I am really quite proud of my little sewing creation. So proud that I'm sure the girls are going to be screaming and chanting 'put down the bandana and just walk away'. These were oh so (and sew) easy!!! I'm seeing one in every color and pattern for the girls... oh the possibilities!!

Now I know why...

Today, for the first time, it hit me like a ton of bricks. I get it. I am now in the club. I now know why most moms only want a family photo as their gift for Christmas, birthday, Mother's Day or any other gift-giving holiday. Why do I know this... because today was OUR family picture day and it was everything I wanted and more. I don't care if no one looked at the camera, I don't care if we all had something stuck in our teeth... it was a picture of me and my most favorite people on earth and that right there is worth more to me than ANYTHING that could ever be purchased. So, in honor of picture day I just couldn't help but grab my own camera as soon as we got home to get a few shots of my own since we were all lookin' uber cute. Completely random pics, most out of focus (I really am working to train Scott and Sam), but just a little sneak peek of us...
