Double Trouble ~ Now I Get It!

T.May and Wyatt are quite the Dynamic Duo these days. They discovered the kitchen a couple of weeks ago and it seems like it is the place to be. They are now pulling themselves up to stand on EVERYTHING in the house including the kitchen cabinets and drawers. Teagan has figured out how to pull herself up on the drawers, open the drawer, reach inside and pull out its contents. The other day I came in the kitchen and she had pulled out all the Ziploc baggies.


Both T.May and W.C. understand "UP." They will lift their hands in the air when they want Mommy or Daddy to lift them up.
Wyatt discovered the cabinet that holds all the mixing bowls...then he figured out how to pull bowls out one by one. If I cooked he could help me cook something! It would be better if he offered to help Travis since Travis cooks dinner every night. :-)
No matter how quickly I move - once I get one out of trouble the other one crawls over and gets into the same mess I just pulled the other one out of!
This is Wyatt discovering the cereal cabinet. The other day I came in the kitchen and found them both on the floor - the Cheerio box next to them with a pile of Cheerios they were happily eating. I wish I would have gotten that on film. I will have to write it down in their baby book. They were just happy little clams - eating Cheerios on the kitchen floor! Hard to be mad at something so cute.

Waiting for Da

The babies call Travis "Da". Sometimes it is Dada...but a lot of times it just comes out sounding a whole lot like "Daah". They have figured out where the front door is and whenever it opens and he comes through - they go crawling to him. It really does make my heart melt...once they get older they will be able to run to him...but for now we settle for the crawl to Da.


Bath Time!

Travis and I put the babies in the bathtub together the other day. It was mayhem...and I don't think I will do this again until they are a bit older. Both the babies love bathtime - it makes it easy on me. I love finding all the food morsels from dinner whenever I take their diapers off...pieces of pasta, chicken, peas...food in their hair and in their eyebrows...so fun.
Here is little Miss May in her birthday suit getting ready for the tub. She loves to stand at the tub and talk to it. I only wish I knew what she was saying.
Notice the pivotal placement of the toy? I wouldn't expose my little man's "nature" now would I?!
