Our nightly activity...

Yesterday, I posted the messy pictures from dinner and nothing has changed yet today. They have continued to be messy and slimy. So this has become the nightly ritual. I like it though, because then I get to lather these boys with baby lotion and snuggle them! That's the best part of my day. So here is to bath time!

Jake & Isaac...Cute little guys. I just wanted to show Shan how cute her little fella is. And also to let her know that he is still SMILEY! What a handsome kid.

This picture just makes me laugh. Jake has recently discovered the habit of biting. It's a horrible habit, but here they were actually both laughing and smiling at each other and I promise...Jake was pretending to eat Isaac. Even though the picture looks like he is out to bite him. The picture was followed with the sound of..."Ummm" (like he just took a bite..but didn't actually bite him!) I just love that I caught that "bite" face on camera. Shan, he has no bite marks, yet!

Here's another video. (They are really meant for Shandra...since she is missing her little buddy!)

This video is specifically for Aunt Lisa. Alayna was on a kick tonight. She wanted her turn on video...so this was all candid. So Aunt Lisa you should feel extra special! Enjoy.

Dinner...it's supposed to be in your mouth!

Mixed Berry Yogurt on his head! It was slimy and disgusting!

Trouble...I just had to laugh and pull out the camera...I figured he was already messy...why clean him up?

Here's another little glimpse of dinner tonight! Shan, do you miss the mess? I doubt it!!! Don't worry Todd, I put down a plastic tablecloth to catch all the food that gets thrown off of their highchairs! Tonight was a complete joy...thanks to Dad and Mom coming to save the night. Oh, and Emily!! Thanks to all who came to rescue an inexperienced mother of three! (I did have to bring dinner to a family in the ward though...and my hubby was off on a bike ride with his buddies...so the night turned out to be rougher than I expected! But I survived all kiddos in bed by 7pm! I LOVE early bedtimes!)

3 & 1/2 days down and a few more to go!

"Hi-ee" is the first thing we get to wake up to when we get Isaac out of bed! He's such a happy cuddly little guy. Look at that adorable smile.
I would have to say that Jake is filled with "trouble" - he's up to something! But we sure love him!!
"Where's Isaac? I know he's coming..."
"Jake where are you, I know your coming?"

I just wanted to post a little video for Shandra who is missing her little guy. I have been telling her how cute our little guys are and how much they tease each other. I caught some pretty silly moments in the backyard today.

So after watching the video who is the whiny child and who is the silent tease? Either way, they both are a tag team! They are always watching where the other is at. I wonder if this is how mothers of twins feel? Are you always breaking up fights? I would assume you would be, because Jake and Isaac are as close as brothers. I really have had a great time with them. Those cute moments just melt my heart! How about for the semi-loud singing girl child in the back ground? I think she misses her cousins, what do you think?

Our weekend...

I know for those of you who check my blog you will be disappointed. I normally have TONS of pictures to update with, but I lost my camera under all the piles of papers on my desk. So it's my fault that I have a loss of memories to share with you. However I can preserve my weekend by just telling about our fun.

First off we had a yard sale on Saturday. Let me tell you, I've never been a part of one before, so it was all new to me! I really had a great time. Thankfully Jared was there to do the confusing money math for our customers and Angela was there to hang with. The best part was we had four baby boys hanging out in a row in their strollers. Every person had to stop to ask if they were for sale. It was funny. The boys were so entertained all morning. I loved to see what was of interest for people. Personally it was all junk. So to think people paid us even $1 for anything was great! I came out $28 wealthier than I started the day. So after tithing, I think Jared and I have enough to go on a date! Yippee.

Next, I have twins this week! Yeah, you heard me. I have baby Isaac with me all week while his parents and siblings are visiting the "Happiest Place on Earth!" I figured it would be no fun for them to take a little baby when all the other kids can ride every single ride. So off they went! This was mine and Shandra's babysitting exchange for education week, for me and Disneyland for her! So far it's been great! Wish me luck!

I hope you all had a great week! Sorry for no pictures. But now that I have relocated my camera I can start up again!
