Cousins
Sunday, Gaby & Jim and the boys came over for dinner! It was a lot of fun to have them all here. The boys went out and fished in the pond in the back yard for a while, Cesar gave them all a few jiu jitsu lessons, and then we all ate and played for the rest of the night. It was a good night!

CRAWLING (and just having fun)!
Oh my...it's official. The girls are BOTH crawling! Leah started crawling on Friday. We really didn't notice Isabella getting anywhere at that point. She would just go in circles or go backwards. So, Saturday morning, I woke up and took out the computer (Isabella's obsession) and Bella was across the room in seconds! So...here is proof of the craziness that is about to take over our lives! The second video is just playtime this afternoon!

5/8/10 6:05pm-My First Big Girl Bath!
This is Leah's first time in the bathtub! We had been giving them baths in their little baby bathtub, but FINALLY, they can sit up on their own and we can do it in the real bathtub. We are still doing it separately until they are a little stronger, but soon we will be able to put them in together. OH how much easier this will make bath time! Hooray!!

Everyday Life
I was just listening to Rascal Flatts' song, "Everyday Love," on the radio the other day, and it made me think of my life! Here are the lyrics:
"It's ordinary plain and simple
Typical, this everyday love
Same ol', same ol' keeping it new
Emotional, so familiar
Nothing about it too peculiar
Oh, but I can't get enough of this everyday love."
As I was listening to it, I thought, wow..that's my life! Having twins, you have to have a constant routine. We try to keep their schedule as predictable as possible. It is very ordinary and the same thing, day after day. You would think that would be boring..BUT...I just can't get enough of it! I love the ordinary things that go on in my day. I love coming home from school and seeing them sleep for a half hour and knowing that at 4:30 we get to go through the feeding routine! I love the way they are SO sweet at bedtime and that they know that at 7:00, everything should stop and we need to start getting ready for bed. I love the way they play by themselves in the morning as I get ready for work. All of it is so routine, nothing too special, but I just LOVE it! I absolutely can't get enough of my time with the girls!
So, being inspired by that and by the girltalk blog from a few ladies from our church, I have decided to try to document our "ordinary, plain and simple," lives by taking a picture of what is going on in our house every day and posting it on here! Now, I know that I will not be able to download and post a picture everyday, so I may have to post three days of pictures all in one day, but I really hope to be able to capture at least one moment a day on film. One disclaimer, if you do follow the girltalk blog...Janelle is a GREAT photographer. Her pictures are BEAUTIFUL and so talented. I am just a mommy with a camera, so mine will not even come close to her pictures, but my intention isn't to be a great photographer....it is to document my family so that when the girls are older, they can look back and this and see what our lives were like when they were babies!! So...all that babble leads to picture #1...here was what I saw yesterday as we got close to the 7:00 bedtime routine. Daddy and Leah playing on the couch! She LOVES when her daddy kisses her belly! She laughs and laughs!!!
