Spring???

Spring is coming and none too soon! My twins are restless and ready to run, and run, and run... and did I mention run? Of course our backyard right now is 1/2 giant snow drift and 1/2 giant puddle. Mix in a little dog... and you get the picture folks.

Besides we haven't found the swings yet and the little shopping cart is only just beginning to appear.

We did go for a walk this afternoon, Abby walked part of the way, splashed in puddles and then rode the rest. The twins... well they complained, stole each other's hats... and then pulled each other's hair. Seriously they were just out to get one another

It was a wee bit windy... and at the end of our walk Abby freaked out and ran inside because she was afraid of the wind. I still don't know why.

Potty training by the way is still going very well. We have now discovered that urine makes the water turn yellow... and that it isn't good to drink. (Don't ask and I won't tell) One or two accidents here and there, usually just when we get distracted going over to someone's house and forget to go.

Abby asked me the other day where her new baby sister was.... I told her she didn't have one and she was very sad. Watch out mother's of unattended babies... my daughter is trying to claim one! Perhaps because she keeps seeing all these babies I'm doing photos of lately....


Kiley and Kara are getting molars in and are like bipolar teenage girls (look they even want to drive!)... Happy! MAD... Happy! MAD... SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD.... HAPPY!

MAD.


(Kiley shutting Kara in the dog kennel)
Ibprofin takes the bite (look at me I'm funny) out of it but they are still pretty miserable. Hopefully they poke through soon so we don't have to endure this much longer. Kara still has a massive spoon fettish... she calls them "UM" So if she comes to you for "UM" it's probably a spoon not "MUM" which is food.

They are also eating really well out of bowls with utensils. Who knew? Guess I should have trialed that sooner. Oatmeal has been the popular dish of the last few days. We are also officially out of bottles HURRAY! No more pushing in the nipples and spilling their juice/milk! We are still doing a bit of experimenting to see which they like best. In a way I miss the bottles because they were a fantastic comfort thing for the babies- they cried, i gave them a bottle (I know bad...)

Abby is still very insistent that we go swimming soon, I'm thinking of looking into swimming lessons for her but  haven't found one I like quite yet....I'm also enjoying painting on Abby's wall... I like crafty things, they are like little stress relievers... lol (I think it's turning out really cute... I have some work to do yet on it tho)

"My three little wild children were running around the house, I asked Abby why they all had their clothes off... she looked at me very seriously and said "We're scavengers!" Would love to know where she got that..." (February 2012)

Overheard Abby playing with her Barbies during bedtime: "Fairytopia is dead. Guys don't planick."... a little while later... "Ariel is dead! Planick?... Planick planick!!!!" (March 2012)

Abby was running around in church. I swiftly stopped her and very seriously said "We aren't supposed to run in Jesus's house." Very seriously she replied "Jesus lives in my heart mommy." Point Abby- (May 2012)
