S.M.R.T.

These darn girls are too smart for their own good.  Butch sneaks in and out of the gate all the time, and Emily watched him do it once and decided that she needed to escape too! 

Mining for toys or books...hmmm.

The girls love it when their Da plays "miner" with them.  Here are a few pics of them playing with thier Da.

Pedi Day!

I have resorted to having to do my own pedicures!  As much as I love getting a relaxing pedicure I simply cannot spend money on something like that now!

So the girls and I did our own!

Hair Do's

I am trying out some new hair styles for the girls and so far they have all been super cute.  I think however that the canvas is the reason, and not the artist! 
I love these little ones! 

Thank you Honey!

I had a great Birthday!
Since neither one of us are employed we are keeping holidays and birthdays small this year.  He did however buy me some beautiful roses and then he baked me a cake and made me dinner.  Plus he did all the dishes!
Thanks you for all the birthday gifts and wishes from all.
I am so very blessed. 

First Harvest

We have gotten some fruits for our labors! It has been trial and error for our first garden, half our peas died, our beans are not doing so well, our beets had some sort of blight for the first half of their life but are growing well despite all that, our potatoes look good as do our tomatoes. Our jalapenos are coming out of their severe wind beating as are some of our onions. We will see how they fare!

Here are some pics of our first harvested fresh veggies from our own garden.

Emily's turn to be first

Ana has been pulling herself up and almost getting to a standing point all over the house, and Emily has not even been real interested in pulling herself up. But she has been trying to stand up just in the middle of the floor. Yesterday I went into their room to get them up from a nap, and this is what I found...Emily is the first to be standing up in her crib...Now what fun we have to look forward to!

PreToddler

Anyone who said having twin babies was super hard forget to tell us about the preToddler stage...They were easy as babies compared to this...We have two crawling little girls who get bored so quickly and get into everything that they shouldnt.  They have tons of toys but only want the wall sockets, the baby gate, the fireplace poker, the garbage can, the dog food...ect.  Now what we have in our house are two screaming girls who don't really know what they want, but know they want something else.  I think that God know what he was doing when he gave me the feeling that I should go ahead and leave my job...He knew that neither Ben or I could handle this stage on our own!!!  I about gave the girls to the Dingo family yesterday.  But called Ben in (who had been doing yard work the entire day) and told him he was done and that we were going to the park right this instant.  So we packed up the girls and headed to a park that we had heard about.  It was actually a great park and we will probably go again soon...It also saved my sanity. 

So much hair

Emily has gotten so much hair, and when we bathe her at night and then put her to bed with her hair just a tiny bit damp, this is what she wakes up with!  It is pretty cute.
