Walk This Way, Talk This Way

As of yesterday Logan is walking all over the house. He seems to have really gotten his confidence and is all about his independence. It’s so cute to see him toddling around and his obvious excitement at this newly honed skill. Forest has also made a huge stride and is constantly walking [...]


you take the good, you take the bad

Forest took two independent steps last night!
I’m constantly testing their knowledge of words and learned the cutest thing the other day. If I ask Forest where “Elmo” is, despite the fact that there are three Elmo’s in our house he goes right to the one dressed like a chicken that Grandmother Karen [...]


never far behind

Forest has been taking steps to us over the past few days. See, it just takes one twin to do something and then the other one is instantly there.
I need to rethink our entire “baby proofing” because Logan can now climb into our living room chairs. Forest can with a little [...]


I’m calling it!

Logan is officially walking. After a couple weeks of taking 3 or 4 steps here and there he is now purposefully walking away from the furniture and walls and taking 6-7 steps out into the empty space to pick up toys, chase cats, etc. He’s still loosing his balance a lot but he [...]


baby steps for Logan

Yesterday Logan started walking away from the walls and furniture and just standing in the middle of the floor. He stands there with strong balance and it’s obvious that he wants to walk but he’s unsure of exactly what to do to make it happen. He waves his hands excitedly in the air [...]


climbing and pointing

The boys have gotten really good at climbing. They climb over us, over pillows, and I’ve really started to have to watch them because they are starting to almost climb up onto stuff that would/could be dangerous. It’s really cute. They are also really into pointing now. So I’m starting the [...]


Cruisin’ on a sunny afternoon

Logan has taken the ‘cruising’ term to a whole new meaning. My expectations were that babies cruise the furniture as they learn to walk. Well Logan can get from the bedroom all the way at one side of the house to the kitchen on the other side using the wall as his balance [...]


We’ve Come a Long Way, Babies

Today is Logan and Forest’s 10 Month Birthday. It’s strange to go back to my posts from earlier this year and realize just how much babies do grow and change in such a very short time.
Logan’s first word was “Buh Bye” just a week ago. But the first word that he actually understands [...]


If your happy and you know it

I don’t know where to begin with all the new things the boys are doing just since this week.
Forest had been working on clapping for the past few weeks but definitely is getting it now. Logan picked it up all of a sudden and does it a lot now.

Forest loves to point [...]


Friday Quickies

I always find myself feeling particularly sexy when my hair is ubershort so thank you to Angela for last weekends cut that has had me smiling all week when I look in the mirror. I also decided to become a serious hat wearer again and bought an adorable green denim paperboy hat from Target. [...]
