Sweet Babies

Drew fell asleep on our walk this morning. He hasn't done that in a couple months! Just had to take a couple pics...isn't he so sweet!?

And pretty Miss Ava....

"Now, I can go after the camera, too!" :)

Ava's CRAWLING!!!!

We're so very excited to share that Ava is now crawling. She's been getting on her hands & knees for a month or so & doing some gymnastics ;), but yesterday morning she decided she would crawl---like she'd known how all along, but just didn't feel like it! We caught it on video this morning:



YAY Ava!!

The swing that Daddy built...

The twins had so much fun at the park swing, that we decided they should have one in their backyard. Plus, that way it's easier for me to let them swing during the day. It only took Jeremy 1 1/2 days to get it done, so we were able to try it out yesterday afternoon:

Ava seemed to like it ok. Though she doesn't really get holding on. Fortunately, it does have straps!

Drew really had a blast in it! He holds on like a pro & seemed to be happy to swing for as long as we were willing to stand outside!

Fort fun

So, we progressed from the tunnel to a much larger fort. Both babies can fit under it nicely & seem to enjoy it! Drew usually tries to 'take it down' at least a couple times a day. No problem...except when Ava's still in it!



*Sorry the video's a little jumpy...I have to hide the camera, so Drew doesn't see it. If he sees it, he must go after it! :)

I just love how he makes Ava laugh! Someday I'll have to post all the videos I've taken of him cracking her up!! :)

Yay for cool mornings!

The weather has been cooler lately & it's made for nice, cold(for a Texan!) mornings for our walks. I had to go out & buy the twins some warmer clothes a few weeks back--they had nothing but shorts & t-shirts! They don't really care for all the extra clothing, but still seem to enjoy getting outside. As long as I get them outside quickly once they are in the stroller, they don't complain too much.

And they're just so adorable in their sweats & hats! :)

About 1/2 way through our walk, Ava usually starts 'singing'. Drew will sometimes join her. It's quite funny, b/c Ava's singing voice is deeper then Drew's!

"My parents are exhausted" !!

My mom(Noni) saw this shirt on another kid & searched high & low until she found them for Ava & Drew. I can't imagine why! ;)

Thanks, Noni! :)

Drew's tunnel

Lately, Drew has had more fun playing under the exersaucer than on top of it. He'll crawl through it to get across the room rather than going around it! So, I decided I'd make it a little more fun for him....I built him a large tunnel with a comforter, the exersaucer & the crawl through aquarium. He's been having lots of fun it it today!

Ava has enjoyed watching from the background:

And, of course, where there's a camera....

you'll find Ava posing away! :)
