Favorite April Pictures

First Fido...now Christina

Is it bad that I let her keep chewing daddy's phone while I grabbed the camera?

Sitting up

Both babies now have mastered sitting up. They "weeble wobble" sometimes, but for the most part they have it down really well. Here they are playing at different times today.

Sippy Cups

I was very proud of the babies today. They were holding their sippy cups and drinking out of them all by themselves.

New books...

I got the babies new books. My nephew, Andrew, has this book called "That's not my dinosaur" and he LOVES it. He had it memorized. I looked everywhere for this book and not only did I find it...but I found a ton more. I got the Dinosaur one for AJ and the "That's not my teddy!" for Christina. They are so cute!

Here they are with their books.


Here is Christina taking AJ's book. Very Christina.


Here is AJ getting his book back. Good boy :-)

I know I have issues...

...when the color of the babies' toothbrushes bugs me. ALOT. So much that I had to search stores to find pink and blue ones. And I did find them. And it was one of the highlights in my day.

Here are the old brushes. I gave Christina the caterpillar one because the lion seemed more for a boy. So I wasn't happy with AJ having a yellow toothbrush and Christina having a green one! Something is very, very wrong with me.

Here are the new brushes. I am very, very happy.

Christina is on the move!

She scoots alot more than this...but this is all I got on video tape. It still cracks me up. She gets to where she needs to be by any means necessary. I love how she grabs onto the activity gym to help her move forward. She is so smart.

Hangin' Out in the Morning

Alot of mornings AJ is awake fairly early...therefore he's in our room with us. Once I've gotten out of the shower, Avery leaves for work. I go into the nursery and if Christina is awake, I'll turn on the light so I can get my clothes for work. If she's asleep I just turn on a small light by the closet and then when it's time to go I put her straight from the crib to the carseat (if she doesn't need a diaper change). Most of the time she is already awake and she's just playing on her own in her crib. So I take AJ and put him in with her while I finish getting ready. Even though it's saturday, we were able to do this again today. Too sweet. Then the pictures below are just because they looked so sweet after their bath and they had gotten dressed.

Rolling over...

AJ rolls over from his belly to his back going left or right...and pretty fast! It's really cute. His daddy worked and worked with him. He had NO interest in it at all so he never really tried. He is pretty laid back and isn't in a hurry to go anywhere or "fly away" like his big sister! I don't have a picture of him rolling over, but here he is last night holding his shirt like he always does and he has the cutest little boy belly ever! :-)

Unbelievable

I just went into the Nursery before I laid down to go to sleep and I still can't believe those precious, perfect angels live here. I don't know what we did to deserve such wonderful babies, but I thank God everyday for them. It's hard to believe they are mine. I love them more than I ever thought possible.
