The fun part of having twins

Giggling!

Who does Sydney's laugh remind you of?!

He figured it out :(

Madi and Saige are more entertaining to watch than Dalton!

I can't get the video to upload of Dalton being a drama queen. He HATES HATES HATES rice cereal and oatmeal. Gags, dry heaves for an hour after we try, and cries BIG crocodile tears. Syd loves it and can't get enough! He is fine as long as we feed him vegetables and fruit but no cereal for this boy! Feeding time has brought on a whole new list of challenges. I am finding out that I blocked out a LOT of things from the first set!!

Why did I buy them presents?

Grandpa's swimming pool

My dad has been working on a pond (for some kind of irrigational purpose) and the girls had SO much fun playing up there with him. He would come home and say, "who wants to go help me up to MY swimming pool?"

They had more fun pulling chance on the 4-wheeler then they did being pulled.

I try not to think about some of the other things they 'help' Grandpa with when they are with him. It scares me to death even though I did them all when I was their age.

Silent Night

Christmas in Circleville 2011

Syd got some cute zebra pjs from Grandma for Christmas

Dalton getting a bath-he's very squirmy now.

We played LOTS of settlers and 'Mormon Rook"til the wee hours of the morning.

The girls found some cats and played with them a lot. Well, actually, Madi played with them and Saige took pictures of them with her new camera (she is allergic).

We made lots of ice cream. Our favorite was pistachio.

We watched "Dreamer"for New Years Eve. Grandpa and Syd didn't make it to Midnight (none of us did)!

Grandpa likes to do lots of tricks with babies. He is already swinging them in the blankets.

Grandma gave the babies new church clothes (they really needed them and are SO cute)

My mom made bread while we were there. When I cut into one of the loaves, this is what I found. She really does cook with love!!!!!

My aunt Ranae drove over one day to see us. It was so fun to visit with her. She is one AMAZING lady!

These pictures make it look like I took them with a terrible camera-nope-their faces really are that dirty. they spent most of the 2 weeks we were there 'helping' Grandpa on the farm. They came home filthy every day. It makes me SO happy (and I'm not being sarcastic).

None of these pictures are in order.

These are from our family Christmas Eve party.

We had an ugly sweater contest and played some fun games.

Of course-there were wrestling matches

Dad and Ashtin were the winners. What is funny about that is that this is a sweater my dad actually used to wear. He bought it down on the reservation when they used to sell potatoes down there. Ashtin's sweater had a bunch of cats on the bottom playing with yarn. It was pretty ugly!
