Twins

Trimming Trees and Birthdays

The boys turn three years old this coming Saturday, December 12th. They certainly look and act like three year olds to me. It’s a magical, brilliant age and I can’t believe the time has flown by like it has. All of us parents say that, don’t we?
This year, Dusty is taking [...]


Halloween

We started the Halloween festivities on Tuesday night when the boys participated in their first pumpkin carving with Dusty aka Green Daddy.

July

Here are some of the pictures from the Warren family’s visit in July.


Finger Painting!

The boys made finger painted art for Father’s Day cards to their Dads and Granddads. They had a blast! Especially Forest who decided to pain himself as much as the paper.
Logan loved how pretty his hands got.

Forest banging his hands down to make a cool image.

Logan had to try that method, [...]


Brothers

The boys fight a lot at this age. I expect they will from here on out. I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, I just didn’t expect the “stop touching me!” to start at such an early age! We can’t make it through the grocery store any more without fights [...]


Marble Track Maddness

Like most kids, Logan and Forest love to build. They were introduced at a young age to a marble track at Granny Warren’s house that fascinated them. So we bought them a small one to play with, something I picked up in the dollar section of Target. Well, the boys (and Daddies) [...]


Bigger then Life

The boys are daredevils and love to pretend to be superheros, Buzz Lightyear, and otherwise have powers to fly and jump and be bigger then they are.
Forest, To Infinity and Beyond!

And go!


Potty Training Begins

A few weeks ago I started “getting serious” about potty training. Not that it’s very serious really but I’m trying to be more regular about it. In the mornings after breakfast, we go spend some time on the pottys thanks to an M&M treat. Just one to get them willing to sit [...]

Introductions

After a bit of a rough start, we had one of the most perfect park experiences a mom can hope for. The boys stayed in the same area even though it was a HUGE park and one could have decided to go wandering. They did a great job of listening to me and [...]
