Peanut & BooBoo

Sophie and Macy continue to wake up so happy from their naps. They will wake up and chat and giggle with each other until someone comes to get them. Yesterday Molly went in their room first and gave them "presents." These presents turned out to be millions of small toys. It took 20 minutes to fish them all out of the cribs. Some cute pix of the babies playing with the toys!


Macy and Mr. Weeble (they wobble but they don't fall down)

"Okay Mom...I'm ready to get up now!"


"Hey Mom, hey Mom...LOOK,LOOK, LOOK!"

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!

Fun Day


Mommy and Molls


Daddy and Jack


Macy and Sophie making a MESS with PB&J


Jack and Grumpy Girl!


John and Uncle Mark basking in the little bit of sunshine we had today!


We had another fun morning out on the boat. We broke in the new innertube and went tubing. Jack and Molly were very hesitant, but they did it and had fun...I think! My thighs got so beat up that I am starting to bruise. It was fun though and everyone had a great time. The kids had lunch on the boat and then we headed back in for nap time. John, Uncle Mark and Jack went to see the new movie Wall-E and then we hosted a fish fry in the cul-de-sac in between rain storms. It was a fun, long holiday weekend!

Choo choo!


We are so excited! Just in time for the 4th we bought a pontoon boat! It's very nice with lots of room for all the kids and then some. We decided to take it out for the first time with all the kids for the 4th to swim and watch the big fireworks show on the lake. I made a really nice picnic dinner and just as we headed out it started to rain, thunder and lightning. We still went out hoping that it would blow over but it wasn't meant to be. A nice cold rain fell the whole time we were out there and we called it a day after about an hour and a half. We did manage to get some swimming in and we ate my yummy dinner on the boat. Jack and Molly both got to drive the boat and Sophie and Macy LOVE to go fast. On the way in, Macy stood at the back of the boat and was mesmerized by the water spraying out of the back of the boat. She stood there the entire ride in and squeeled when John went faster.


A few other tid-bits...Macy and Sophie are starting to take a few steps...While Sophie and Macy both like to dance more than Jack or Molly ever did, I think Macy is going to be my performer. Any time she hears music she gets this cool slow jam going and has the most serious look on her face. She was sitting at the front of the boat in her own little world just jamming tonight...EXTREMELY cute!! She actually prefers hip-hop and pop!

Swimming With The Fishes

Jack and Molly started swimming lessons last week at the Yacht Club. Days 1 and 2 were sketchy but since "getting their toes wet" they have been doing great. Jack is doing "cannon balls" and Molly is putting her face in the water and blowing bubbles. Their swim teacher, Miss Katie, is fantastic with both of them.

Sophie and Macy had their 3 month visit with Miss Ruby, their Early Intervention Coordinator, and they are doing great. They have started slap fighting with each other and really let you know when they are angry with you. They are both REALLY close to walking and into everything. They make me laugh all the time. I'll post some more pix soon!


Kick Molly, Kick!!


Blowing bubbles

Summer Vacation Is Here

Well...everyone is officially out for summer, including me, and Jack and Molly are already at each other's throats! I decided that since this was Jack's last summer before he starts kindergarten that we would not schedule too much and just play and chill all summer. After 1 week with us all home together I think they are officially bored of Mommy and each other. Don't get me wrong they do play together nicely most of the time, but when they fight...they fight. At least they don't have smacking fights like Staci and I used to have! We do have swimming lessons starting next week which they are both excited about and our trip to Indiana in early July. I look more forward to August 15th every day :)

A few weekends ago we had a pizza party/trophy ceremony for Jack's t-ball team. John was "officially" voted as Head Coach next year. Jack absolutely thought his trophy was "AWESOME" as it is the biggest one he has gotten to date. Sophie and Macy had their first experience eating pizza that day as well.
Enjoy the pix!!


Sophie and Macy ready to eat!

How lucky am I that I get to see 2 such HANDSOME guys every day ;)
