The Splash Park!...for the first time!
















So last Fri. I took the twins...by myself,(well kinda), we went w/ my friend Nicole from up the street, and her 2 little girls, she has one about 6 weeks younger than the twins,Braelle, (one of Luke's many girlfriends,she's in one of the pics w/ him!)and a 3 month old, and her sister who was visiting from Wyoming. I thought the Rexburg Splash Park was so nice, I wish we had one here in Idaho Falls! I can't believe we don't! Anyways, I wasn't sure about how the twins would react, especially Mia, who always waits for Luke to do something before she does...I guess this actually makes her a really smart girl! Ha! But the tiny waterfalls were perfect for them! After awhile they actually seemed to really like it! They loved to watch all the other kids to. And the great thing was they actually stuck pretty close to me, so it wasn't hard to watch both at once! :) I'm looking forward to the next time we go!! :)

Happy 4th of July!!!





































Well we had a pretty nice,low key 4th of July! My mom had been staying w/ us for the week, so we were sad that my dad wanted her back on the morning of the 4th! :( We went to our friend Chris's for a barbque, the twins were a little shy till they got to the backyard and saw the trampoline and the swingset and the playhouse, then they were in heaven! My camera died during the barbque,but luckily my great friend Cami saved the day w/ her awesome camera, so I'm using the pics she took instead of the ones I took!! :) After the barbque we just went home, we were both worn out from chasing the twins all day!:) Of course we didn't make it to the fireworks because I am the strict bedtime mom.....7:30!!!! Ha! :) Maybe next year I'll bend the rules and we'll watch the fireworks! Hope everyone had a Happy 4th of July!!! :)

A Twinner update at 18 months!!











Ok, so it's been a month or so since I've done any blogging! Wow, the summer is going by fast, so I thought I do a litttle update! We've just been hanging out this summer so far, the twins LOVE playing outside in their backyard and in their pool, I sometimes just let them play out there in the pool naked, naked babies are SOOO cute!! ;) and really w/ 2 it's just easier that way, then when they are done I can dress them and put them down for a nap! ;) A couple weekends ago they had a B-day party for their cousin at Leo's, which they had a great time and they loved riding those little 25 cent cars and toys that move. On this past Mon. (the 21st) they were 18 months, so we had their Dr. appt. that day also. I had to post the pics even though it was sad, I thought it was funny also, (no, I'm not a mean mom) But they were all happy in the waiting room and then the minute they got into the exam room, they were screaming!! The worst part about this was that I was alone w/ them!!!! My mom was in Chicago, and Trav had meetings he couldn't get out of, so it was just me, w 2 screaming 18 month olds, they were by far the loudest kids in the office!! And they didn't stop screaming till they were dressed and we were out the door! But little Mia weighed in at a whopping 19.6lbs. and was 30 3/4 in. tall, and Luke weighed in at 22.8lbs. and was 32 1/4 in. tall, they are both on the small side, 15 percentile and 25th percentile I believe. Hopefully one of these days they'll catch up!! They are getting so big, they are regular little kids these days, they love to play w/ each other. Luke is by far the leader, whatever trouble he's into you can bet Mia's right behind him, ( I think she just likes him to test everything out first) ,she plays it smart and safe!! That's about it for us, I hope everybody's having a great summer!! :)
