The Amazing Twin Adventure

Since we're still boring and mundane around here, I decided to do a bit of a photo essay. It's been a while since I innundated you with my kids' cuteness, so hold on to your hats! (and I realize that Mason is woefully under-represented here. It's not that we don't love him, or think that he's less photoworthy. It's just that he doesn't get into nearly as many crazy situations that send me running for the camera!



Mmmmmmm.........bread..........




Last night I left the twins to their own devices while I got their bath ready. When I wet to get them ready, this is what I found. Will had managed to pull a freshly baked loaf of dill french bread off the counter and get through two layers of saran wrap. By the time I found them, they were pulling giant hunks out of the center of the loaf and cramming it into their mouths! I guess they like mommy's homemade bread!



Like a fat kid on a cupcake.....



This is what happens when you give toddlers cupcakes- a delicious chocolate beard!

Peek-a-boo!

Here's some Hays cuteness with one of Daddy's hats



It's naked time!!!!!

I'm pretty sure that Hays has decided to become a nudist. Every time I look at him, he's taking his clothes off. He has become an expert in pants removal, and once the pants go, it's merely a matter of seconds before he's naked as a jaybird. I've tried to thwart him with overalls with only a modicum of success. Onesies are working for now, but once he figures out how to unsnap those, I'm out of options!!!

Strike a pose!

Here's Will modeling his new haircut and his big brother's shoes.

All this in just 100 days....

Mason's class recently celebrated the 100th day of school. Each child had to make a vest that 100 things on it, and here's Mason in his fancy goldfish vest. It is so amazing to see how much he's learned in just 100 days. When he started school, he could barely write his name, couldn't read a word, and still scribbled wildly when he was supposed to be coloring. Now he can read all of the beginning reader books his teacher sends home, he colors neatly in the lines, he can write anything legibly (though he still writes b, d, and s backwards at times!) , he can do simple math and write number to 100, he's amazing! He's growing up so much and I am constantly amazed by the funny, imaginative boy he is becoming. Bring on the next 100 days!!!

Time to make some changes.....

I recently had to rearrange the furniture in the twins' room and this is why. Will always liked peeking out the window while he was supposed to be sleeping. But now that he's taller and more desctructive, mere peeking around the curtains wasn't going to cut it anymore. On this particular afternoon he decided that rather than nap, he'd yank the curtain down, pull out the curtain rod, and beat the window with it. I rearranged their furniture and now nobody sleeps by the window! Soryy for spoiling all your fun, Will!

Cooking with Will and Hays

The twins love to empty out my kitchen cabinets and drawers and pretend to cook. Because of this, my kitchen floor is always strewn with pots and pans, mixing bowls, and various kitchen utensiles. It's messy, but it keeps them occupied, so I've given up on fighting it. Who knows, maybe they'll grow up to be chefs!

Does this bag go with these shoes?

Lately Will's big into headbands and pocketbooks. Here he is sporting his favorite red glitter headband. He loves to throw on a headband, grab one of my purses and his cell phone and tell me "Bye-bye" as he pretends to head out the door! Given this and his fondness for shoes and rearranging furniture, we're thinking he may have a future on the Style channel!!
