June photo shoot

Isabella

Today I was making funny faces and noises with my mouth at the girls to make them laugh. Then, Isabella decided she was going to make them back at me to make me laugh. I only got a little on video, but she was so funny trying to emulate what I was doing. She cracks me up!

Mini-Me!!

Morning Playtime!

Typical morning at our house!

Our new favorite toy!

Thanks aunt Gaby and Grandma Leah for this Christmas present. Now that we can stand we just cant get enough of it!

Rocking Chairs

Three of my awesome friends from work made these rocking chairs for the girls. I LOVE them! Tina is the art teacher at our school and she hand painted all the designs. Isn't she so talented? I really love that on the bottom she put all of their birth information. What a great idea!!!

Leah..very proud of herself.

Isabellita

This is pretty much all they want to do recently...they will stand anywhere they can (including in the bathtub which Mommy does NOT like!)

Gag me with a spoon!!

Every Saturday and Sunday morning, I eat breakfast with the girls and then i let them play with my spoon and bowl. They crack me up because they just pass the spoon back and forth (translation: steal it from each other over and over) and shove it in their mouths. I decided to try to get a video of it today. They caught me taping them, so it wasn't as funny as it usually is, but you can still get the idea!

Waiting for Daddy to come downstairs in the morning!

This is their new thing. Every morning while I am getting ready, they will crawl over to the stairs and wait for Daddy to come downstairs. When they see him they get so excited! So cute. It is so wonderful to see them get excited when they see one of us. Yesterday, when I got home from work, they were in the kitchen. I walked in the door and sat on the floor and they both came crawling as fast as they could screaming and laughing! It was AWESOME! I just love these girls :)

Playin w/the Trash!

OK, so be prepared to think I am a horrible mom as you watch this! Not only am I letting my daughters play with a plastic bag...huge no no #1...but I am also letting them play with a plastic bag full of TRASH...huge no no #2! Whoops. I just couldn't resist. Isabella LOVES (and when I say loves, that is an understatement) plastic bags. If there is anything made of plastic in the room she is in, she will be there in seconds. So...I took the trash bag out of the can and put it on the floor so I could finish cleaning the kitchen, and immediately Isabella flew from the family room into the kitchen to play with it. Next thing I knew, they were on either side of it screaming and laughing. This went on for about 10-15 minutes before I finally grabbed the video camera and started taping! It was hilarious! Hope you aren't too offended by my mothering skills!

Another Milestone...shared bathtime!

OK, so I apologize for posting so many pictures of this, but I couldn't resist. I just love all of these! We finally gave the girls a bath together yesterday and it was great! I was nervous about doing it by myself, so I waited until Cesar could be there to help out if we needed it. But..they did so well, he was freed to just take pics of the little beauties!

My two pumpkins

It was tough to get Isabella to look at the camera...she was having so much fun!

Playing on their seat

Leah, sucking Isabella's arm...

...And giving her a kiss

....And just one more kiss!

Leah just LOVES the ducky...

..."I can fit it in.."

Still trying...

...And again....

The funny part is that all these "duck eating pictures" were taken at different times. She spent much of the bath-time trying her best to shove it in her mouth!

Playing after the bath

They just love each other!

Bye Bye!!
