Our Girls!

Ok well a lot has been going with the girls! They seem to be growing at an incredible rate lately :(. Nathan and I are kinda boring but I'll give you an update on us as well why not.

Becca

- Loves to dress up! She is such girl!

- Loves to sing (especially loves the theme song to "Max & Ruby")

- Got her first hair cut ever! (I guess it counts but all she cut off was her mullet in back)Ha ha! Thanks Chelsie!

- Loves to give her little sister Rachel Kisses

- Loves to go swimming!

- LOVES to dance! Yes this is her favorite thing!

- pretend plays, talks to her self in her room when she thinks she is alone :)

- Loves to copy things Nathan and I do. When I am getting ready for the day, she likes to do all that I am doing!

- She likes to look out the window every morning when Nathan leaves to work and she says "bye daddy wove you, drive safe, wove you ba bye"

- She calls complete strangers "Honey". When we were at the pool the other day she walked up to this lady and said "get in the pool Honey"! She uses that word a lot.


Rachel

- Can now roll over

- Loves to watch Beccas every move and laughs at her!

- Is teething! She has both fists in her mouth at all times drooling like crazy

- Loves people! Thrives on smiles and kisses, and just grins with her whole body! Gets real sad when she has no one to look at.

- she makes little babbling sounds and blows bubbles out of her mouth!


Me and Nathan

- We just love to watch our girls, and talk however I feel real bad lately because I have started reading the "Twilight" series again! And have been completely ignoring him (sorry babe)! But I am So freaking excited for the last book to come out in 1 month!!!! YEA! And not to mention the movie in December WEW! Too much for my little heart to handle! Ok well now for whole lots of pictures (sorry have been storing up for the last month I will try to limit them!)

Potty Training ???

Ok So Life has been a little crazy latley! We Just moved a few weeks ago back to Draper! And the girls have been sharing a room for now so sleep has been a joke! But we are finally getting settled and all that wonderful stuff! If anyone knows of a great development or place to move in the Sandy, Draper area PLEASE let us know about it! We have been looking for over a year now for a house to buy, and have not found one we loved yet. So we are renting a townhome for the time being. Anywho my last cry for help is this.....Does anyone have any great tips for Potty Training! AHHHHH I have been putting it off too long, and I just need to face that fact that Becca is too big for diapers now (cry). So any helpful tips would be welcomed! I will post soon about what my 2 munchkins have been up too!

Lauren

Our Lovely Children

So Saturday morning Nathan and I we were just lazing around, and Nathan was holding Becca & Rachel, and they were being so cute! So a photo shoot was born. I finally had to make myself put the camera down, but Rachel kept pulling the best faces! Anywho sorry there are so many, but I am that mother who thinks her kids are just the cutest things alive so here ya go :). This first one makes me laugh!

California!

Well be prepared this is going to be a long post! The same day that I went into Labor with Rachel we booked some tickets to have a fun vacation in Cali! It was so much fun being there with our 2 girls, and with Keith and Leslie! Rachel slept most of the time, while Becca just had a blast! I'm not sure how she will deal with returning to normal life:). It took her the first day at Disney Land to figure out that you have to wait in line before you get to go on the ride (was not happy about that). She got the hang of it though and was willing to wait to get to the fun stuff! We did a 2 day park hopper pass, but ended up going back for a 3rd day! On Saturday we ventured over to Del Coronado, and played at the beach all day! It was so much fun! It's always hard to go home after vacation. So here are A LOT of pictures (I can't figure out how to do the slide show thing).
