Holiday Pictures

Okay, I'm going to do less talking this time and more picturing!
I'll just say that the girls are 5 1/2 months, our house is finally getting started, and the girls are starting to taste some foods and trying to crawl!
Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here we go!

Holiday Photo Shoot

Sylvanna: "This is fun!" Arvelle: "Yup, tons."

Yay! A good one!

Sylvanna opening her first present!




















A Teddy Bear! She loves it :)




















Arvelle opening her first present.




















Oooh! A Teddy Bear! I never would've guessed! ;)

Honestly, she loves this bear! It's her lovey now :)

Mmm...Banana!

Daddy is uber fun! (and a little crazy)

OUR HOUSE! The slab is poured and now the walls will be started on Monday :)

Video for fun (because it's a new feature on here and I gotta try it out).

Arvelle in the jumperoo for the very first time:

Okay, that's it for now :) Will be back in the usual month or so!

Thankful for Twins on Thanksgiving!

The girls had a wonderful holiday with their family! They got to see Grandma & Grandpa and Great Grandma & Great Grandpa (both sets!) plus their Uncle Jason and lots of other cousins, friends, etc.

Here is a picture of the girls with their Great Grandparents (Chambers) and their second? cousins!

Arvelle is on the right with Great Grandma and Sylvanna is on the left with Great Grandpa!

Here are the girls with Uncle Jason!


All-in-all the girls had a wonderful time and the drive wasn't so bad :)

Arvelle & Sylvanna will be 4 months old tomorrow! It's so hard to believe! They are doing really well - Arvelle is almost sitting up on her own and Sylvanna is babbling up a storm! They recently discovered each other and spend long moments every day just staring, smiling, laughing, and touching each other! It's amazing to see how much they love each other already!

They are growing so fast! They are starting to teeth already! They already can fit in 6 months clothes, which thankfully we have plenty of. As they are growing though, they are needing some other things - such as the next size up carseat and child-proofing materials for the home. If you would like some ideas for Christmas gifts, please use Arvelle and Sylvanna's gift registry at Babies R Us! You can click here to visit it!

Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season! We'll be back after Christmas with some pictures!

Two Cute Little Pumpkins!

Hello everyone!

We know it's been ssssooo long since the last update, but believe me, it wasn't for a lack of trying! Having twins has got to be one of the hardest things to do in one's life! They surely keep us BUSY!

But having said that, they are also twice the joy to watch grow! They are almost 2 months now and really are growing up so fast - Arvelle is holding up her head pretty much all the time on her own. Sylvanna is close behind. Sylvanna is started cooing a few days ago and Arvelle started yesterday. They are both now batting at things and starting to reach (kinda) for things they want. It's just amazing..it really is!
And the best part...SMILES! They've started smiling! We have yet to get a picture, we keep trying! As soon as we do, it's going up :)

We went to Indian Latter Farms today and went apple picking. They had some beautiful pumpkins this year and so we took advantage of it! Click to enlarge the pictures:
