"Ssssss"

I love it when kids discover new things. This week Ella and Ava seem to be discovering how to say their animal sounds and snake and cow are their favorites! "ssss" says the snake and "mooo" says the cow. They walk around pointing out things and constantly chatting! I love it!

It just keeps getting better and better! :)

My little Red Heads!


So we never really realize how lucky we are to have 2 red headed babies until people remind us when we are out... with comments like... "awwwh, look at that hair, so pretty, aren't you lucky!" "They both have red hair, how rare!" "how sweet, you know red hair is going to be extinct soon right?" or my favorite, "where does the red hair come from?" I kinda didn't want a boy with red hair, maybe I shouldn't say that out loud just in case it happens one day, but I am ecstatic to have two girls with red hair. It is so beautiful and now everytime I see a red head I get so excited to think they might have long silky red hair! Ava has curly auburn hair and Ella has straight Red hair, they both have such beautiful red hair and the biggest blue eyes. I just feel so lucky! Now about their chick-let teeth... hmmm, what are we gonna do about these massive teeth that are coming in! :) hahaha

Today the girls got Reading Chairs from my parents from Pottery Barn. I will post pictures of the chairs, but not the actual ones because we haven't uploaded the picture yet. My parents bought them for Christmas for the girls and they absolutely LOVE them. They both just jump in and out of the chairs and read their books in them and they just think they are hot stuff because these are THEIRS! :) It's adorable and by far the BEST gift ever! Thanks Grammy and Papa!

Getting so big

The girls are constantly getting so big and doing such funny things. They are talking like crazy and want to know what everything is. They know if they are doing something wrong they will get a spanking or have to sit in the corner for 10 seconds, so sometimes they just walk over to the corner and sit there! haha! They do all the hand motions to lots of songs and they just recently have an expanded play area b/c Daniel and I took down our dining room table and gave in to our children! We figured while they were younger we'd make it into a "play area" and then get the table back when they were older! They have really enjoyed the wide open spaces and my parents have bought them reading chairs for Christmas, so they will really enjoy sitting in those and looking at their books. Next month we will be flying to Michigan to see my family and it will be our first plane ride with the girls, so wish us much luck. I am sure if they can make a 22 hour car drive they can do a 3 hour plane ride!
