I've fallen behind but here are a few pics from the sequels 11 month birthday and then also their 1 year birthday.  I'll add some pictures from their party in a little while.

10 months old - Chewy looks so much smaller

bath time fun - that dual sink has come in handy  =)

Easter!!

We had a great Easter with the Wolf family.  A nice relaxing day with a fun egg hunt and great Easter baskets. 

A few days before Easter we decorated the back window with fun bunny window clings.

7 Months & 8 Months!!

Life has been busy around here!  I have a few minutes so I thought I'd add some more pictures from these last couple months. 

The sequels are continuing to grow and develop their little personalities.  The originals are growing and learning and becoming more independent.  Some days are more challenging than others but we wouldn't trade a minute of it! 

Here are a couple pictures from these last few months:

we took official family pictures - I was sweating & worn out by the time we finished but love the results

making toast with Grandpa

decorating cookies - Uncle Tim & Aunt Kelly sent us a cookie decorating kit for Christmas

adding sprinkles

eating sprinkles

green tongue from sprinkles - he, he

Kinetic sand with Grandpa

Jaken & Tesla transitioned to big kid beds recently.  Here was our first night in big beds:

We had snow today!  It was so fun take T & J outside - it's the first time they've been able to play in the snow for real.  They loved it!  (but it was chilly and we didn't stay out too long, but memories made!)  =)

attempting a snowman (but it wasn't good packing snow)
