Well, we are mostly moved into our new digs in Rocklin. For those of you not familiar with the area, we are outside of Sacramento on your way to Lake Tahoe. We are just at the base of the foothills, a solid 20 minutes from downtown Sacramento, basically the last exit before you start to get near Auburn. We are just renting a house until we figure out the area, where we want to be, etc. We do want to buy our new house soon though...because we really are excited about having our new home and being a permanent resident of the area. Both Travis and I can't wait to have that "Ahhhh....." moment when we are moved into our new home and we are all moved in. I am hopeful that will happen by the babies 2nd birthday in June.
This is the new playroom we have devised from what should be the family room. We have gated it off and made it a playroom. It is comprised of nothing but toys! Oh my - you should see it at the end of the day. It is great to have an area where I can safely put the babies and watch them however. I really do like this.
Teagan and Wyatt just LOVE their cars. They love to crawl in and out of them...they like to sit in them and drive....they sit in them and drive into one another....they honk at each other...they LOVE their cars.
Boy - I now know the true meaning of the term: Monkey See Monkey Do. When you have twins, you understand. Whatever one does - the other MUST do. If Teagan turns her cup over to drop milk onto her highchair tray...then Wyatt must do it too. If Wyatt climbs onto the dining room chair in order to get on top of the dining room table...then Teagan must do it too. Whatever one does...so does the other...
Mr. Wyatt is proving to be all boy. ALL BOY this kid. He is a huge fan of sticks. Whenever we go outside, he finds a stick (or two) to carry around. He must have a stick in hand at all times if we are outside. This is us at a local park in our new neighborhood.
Teagan is quite the little adventurer. She is defintely our "jump off the deep end" little girl. She ventures out on her own to go anywhere - through tunnels - whatever - to get to the other side. No fear this little one.
Wyatt loves slides. Whenever we go to the park he is the fist to climb the steps to get to the slide. He and his daddy just hang out and do laps - going up and down the slide.
Teagan on the swing. I am quite amazed that she already loves to swing quite high. Whenever I push her she says: "Weeee....." in her cute little voice. I find that if I want the babies to do something, if I add a "Weeee...." and make it seem like it is fun, they are more willing to follow along! Mommy tricks #1. :-)
In our household - this is the "naughty corner!"
We also got to go on our first quad ride...well...almost. Wyatt didn't like the quad too much and wanted off pretty quickly. But Teagan - sticked out her tongue to try and catch the wind as we rode back to the house.
Isn't he just so cute?! Such a mini-me version of his Daddy.
The babies actually sat in their wagon for a solid part of the parade...but as usual all good things must come to an end! They got out and ran around for the last part. It was really sweet because a lot of people in the parade were throwing (a.k.a. handing out) candy and they would always come up to the babies and give them candy....which I would promptly take away! No candy canes for a 1 1/2 year old!!
Is it mean that I take their shirts off for meals?!
Wyatt is such a great eater. He is always up for food...you can count on him for that. Sometimes he will eat 4 fishsticks - 6 or 7 tater tots - 5 or 6 carrots and then some graham crackers. He is a great eater.
Teagan on the other hand...I am not sure how she is still growing based on how little she ends up eating. She already is showing signs of *becoming* a picky eater. If I sit something on her tray and she doesn't want it, she will say: "No....No....No" and then swoosh my hand away. Or if it is on her tray and she doesn't want it, then she will just throw it across the room. I swear she practices how far she can get a piece of food across the room! She already has definite opinions on her food.

Here is Wyatt with his bucket. He was actually more into leaves on the grass from the tree than his Halloween bucket.
This is Teagan wanting to head out - across the street to go see the neighbors pumpkins. The babies just loved pumpkins. They both - but mostly Wyatt - just kept calling them "balls". I tried to explain they were pumpkins....
The babies were fascinated by the lime tree in G.G.'s front yard. They kept going over to it - pulling the limes off and throwing them. They thought that was just a great time!
Here is Travis with the babies. For some reason, Teagan ended up with her Bunny outside. Don't remember how at this time...but whenever she is super upset (a.k.a temper tantrum) she will end up with Bunny to calm her down. Some toddlers got candy for the first time on Halloween: Teagan got Bunny outside. Big treat. 
Here they are: Halloween 2008.
