It's been a while


I keep meaning to do short blogs more frequently, but can't seem to find the time....so, I procrastinate and they end of being huge-sorry:)

I will try to give a quick re-cap of some of the highlights of the last few weeks. A few weeks ago Pam and I woke up at 5:30 to hit the annual Woodlands garage sale. I managed to find a few steals, and came home with some pretty cool stuff--all for under 30 bucks. Their favorite item by far was the $2 shopping cart, Hannah kept trying to climb into it like she does at the grocery store. Here are some pics of the new toys:

Last week Hannah and Hunter finally got their 18 month shots. It was our 3rd attempt-Hannah had a ear infection, then Hunter was sick......so they were well enough to be rewarded with 3 shots in the legs. They do pretty well in general with their shots, but I can tell it is definitely getting harder as they get older. Hannah is becoming quite the chatter box now, her new favorite words are "up" and "baby". Hunter used to be the more vocal one, so it's funny to see how they change back and forth. I still don't feel like they are talking enough, but their pediatrician doesn't seem concerned. They told us that twins have their own way of communicating and that they usually take a bit longer, so that makes sense to me. They have become huge fans of Sesame Street (I think it even trumps Baby Einsteins). Hannah pointed at the tv and said "emoo, emoo, emoo" before I figured out she wanted her elmo dvd. I must say that Sesame Street has not changed too much from when I was little, I swear they still have some of the same videos from my childhood!! It is still pretty old school, which I guess is why we all like it so much.

This past Sunday we took pictures in the bluebonnetts near our house. Katy, Jason, and Adalee joined us and we came back to the house for dinner afterwards. Hannah and Hunter had a great time tromping through all the flowers, and I'm pretty sure they ate a few too. Overall, we got some really cute pics--it's just so hard to get a picture with both of them looking at the same time!! Here are a couple bluebonett pics..I have posted them all on our shutterfly site if you would like to see more: http://www.kevinandmanyplus2.shutterfly.com/

Believe me, don't worry about the talking. It will come and then you'll wish they would be quiet. I was always concerned with Nate and now he never shuts up. This time around, I don't care that Gray still doesn't say anything other than "da da."
