Saturday Family Time

Today we got up and it was dark and dreery out so we decided to go somewhere inside incase it rained. We loaded up and went back to the Katy Mills Mall. Lucky for me, Chris came along this time. We met my sister-in-law Amy and our nephew Adden for lunch at the Rainforest Cafe. It was really good eating. Afterwards, we did some shopping and stopped for a rock wall climb. Kaetlyn and Kaeli love to do the rock wall, so we let them. Had some icecream and headed home. It was a very nice day! Kaeli and Adden at lunch. Kaetlyn climbing. Kaeli climbing.

Kaeli's CSK Performance

Tonight was Kaeli's last preschool performance. She and her classmates looked like elephants and sang a song called "Elephants have Wrinkles". It was super cute! Cami was also there with her class jammin' out with pink punk rocker hair! Awesome!

I guess this will be it for the cute programs until the babies get bigger and take the stage. Lord help their teachers when they do! I tried to get some good pics of the show, but it looks like the best were at the end when it was all over..... Kaeli as an elephant. Kaeli, Kaetlyn & Cami. My little girls after the show!

Just A Little Backyard Fun

I am now about half way through my vacation. Its been a blast so far. Chris and I had to take the boys to the doctor today for their 9mo checkups. It was rough. Caleb is so terrified of everyone but us. He even freaks out from time to time when Mimi comes over. So, needless to say, seeing the doctor and the nurses did him in. But, Dr Penn says they look fabulous. Growing good and are right where they are supposed to be developmentally. We told him about them standing up and letting go now and he said that was amazing at this age, especially for boys....Super Babies!
We hung out in the backyard tonight, I smoked a few racks of ribs....yumm-ie. They were awesome. Chris set up our patio table and chairs that we've had in the boxes for forever and got the new patio looking great. Finished it off with a little trampoline action. Take a look..........

A trip to the Rain Forest

Today we went to Katy Mills mall and went to the Rainforest Cafe. That is me and ALL 4 of the kids! That's right, me and the luna bunch by myself! Chris wanted some alone time to just chill so I decided since I was on vacation...why not? Loaded them all up, picked Kaetlyn up from school and off we went. It was such a nice day. I really can't believe it went so well especially with me all by myself. We ate lunch and the babies were better than I think they've ever been! We did some shopping and came back. No probs. I feel like I can take them anywhere now! Yeah, right!

April Vacation

Today I kicked off another week of vacation at home. We started out at the Woodlands mall with Mimi, did a little shopping and looking around. When we got home, we took the girls out in the backyard for a little slippin and slidin'.



















The boys watched their sissys and laughed as they soared down the slip and slide.

















We ended the day with a bike ride and a walk around the block. It was a great first day. Have a lot more instore. Can't wait!

9 MONTHS

Its been 9months today since the little bubs came into the world. Chris and I were just talking about how much they have changed and grown. I mean, where has the time gone? Still can't believe it. They are such a joy now, into everything! Crawling, climbing, standing up! Caden and Caleb are both standing up in front of everything and crusing along the couch. We expect to see them walking with no hands really soon. Caden is starting to get more and more brave by letting go and trying to take that first step. Super babies!
Let's see....Caden now has his 3rd tooth and is cutting the 4th one as we speak. Caleb still only has the 2, but is acting like another is on its way. They both wave and say "hi" when you say hi to them and Caden likes to say baba when the bottle gets there and Caleb says "ad da" every time he sees his daddy. They really are amazing little guys. I can't wait to see how they turn out. They've already stolen my heart!

Silly Babies

Well...these babies are still growing like crazy. I really dont have much to add for our loyal readers, really just wanted to put some new pics out there for all to see.....

Brotherly Love

The boys are now 8 1/2 mos. and its amazing to see how much they have bonded with each other. When we first brought them home from the hospital it was as if they had no idea the other was there sometimes. They didn't even look at each other. Now, they are on top of each other all the time. Its as if they can't be apart. They constantly sit on top of each other playing and follow one another around the house. They are best buddies for sure!

The Bubs

The "Bubs" as Chris and I call them are getting so big! They are into EVERYTHING! Its amazing how fast they grow up and change from day to day. They are almost 81/2mos now and are getting around so good. They pull up and stand at everything and even let go. That only lasts a few seconds and then they fall flat on their bottoms. If they aren't walking in the next month, we will be shocked. Oh well, I guess its true what they say, boys will be boys!!!!
