It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

We took the twins to the Worthington Mall today to meet Santa, and here's the proof -



Aren't they adorable? And they didn't cry at all! It's a Christmas miracle...

You guessed it - More twin pictures!

Here are some pictures we took around Thanksgiving, part of which we spent in Chicago with my Dad and stepmother. Enjoy!

No Dad... She's a baby, not a hamster!


Well, OK - If it works...


Great Grandma got to feed Alex


On a couple of nights


I think she enjoyed it


And I know that Alex did!

Another milestone reached - post number 500!

That's right - this is my 500th post to the blog. I'd like to thank my children for making it all possible :) Anyway, here are the pictures I was trying to post last week, but since Blogger was acting goofy, I could get them to upload. Enjoy!


Look Mom - the dog likes me!


Uh... Mom? He's a little too close for comfort...


Tummy Time!


And now, the Amazing...


Rolling...


Mara!!


Alex seems impressed, dosen't he?


Mara seems to want to tell Alex something...
I Wonder what it could be?


Dad, in his natural state (nowadays)

Wishing you an early Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, Blogger is acting weird, and giving me error codes whenever I try to access the link to load pictures from, so I don't have as many pictures this time as I could have. Sorry - I know it's been awhile, and I do have a lot of pictures (I promise), so I'll get them put up as soon as Blogger gets the problem fixed. Anyway, here is what I could get uploaded OK -

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween to one and all! And to celebrate, here are pictures of the twins in their costumes (Which we had to take over the span of a couple of days, since they didn't last for more than 20 minutes in them...)!


Alex the chicken duck!


Check out the feet :)


What a great smile!


Mara the butterfly


Mmmmm... Sleeve...

And now it's Alex's turn

Aren't they cute?


Happy Halloween!

New pictures - and a surprise!!!

A special treat today - I have new twin pictures (of course), but I also have a few videos today. They were taken with my cell phone, so the quality is only so-so, but hey - if you're gonna complain, then go buy me a real video camera!

NOTE: The videos were not working initially, but seem to be working as of now (11am Oct. 24th).

Yummy!


He's mostly holding it in his cheeks


But, we keep trying


Did he actually swallow that?


Maybe, maybe not


Uh oh - spoon feeding didn't make Alex happy - this time


After a bath, Mara becomes - Bunny Mara!


And Alex is - Simba Alex!
