M and D wish everyone a Merry Christmas

M and D had a very exciting Christmas, beginning with Christmas eve, when they went on their first trip with Grandma and Aunt V, without mom and dad. Can you believe that dad let us take them away? It was the very first time they left the house without a parent, M and D survived, Dad, I'm not so sure. We were given all of the rules, which we followed, except that we broke the curfew that dad set. I'm sure it won't be the first time for those two.

I can't understand why people were blowing their horns at me and driving fast around me, I was going the appropriate speed of 25 miles and hour with such valuable passengers.

We took them to meet their cousins on dad's side. They had a wonderful time, were only held by their aunt, uncle and dad's first cousins. They loved the excitement and can't wait to go again next year, as Aunt J, says it is now a tradition.

Dad has been saying for a long time, that D looks like cousin C and finally they got to meet and hit it off immediately. M got to meet Uncle A and thought he was the best!

Christmas morning started a little late, between naps (good thing) and getting two babies out the door. Out of control grandma, was waiting with anticipation.

This was M and D's piles, I don't understand why Mom and Dad were going OMG. I told everyone I was out of control.

D loved the car, but M's eyes lit up when she got put in it, you know the song Fun Fun until Dad takes the T-Bird away? I can see it now. However, there is a green dragon on the activity center, and both M and D loved that piece of it. I can tell you that M didn't go to bed until 3AM, dad said that she would cry when they took her out and then be fine when they put her back in, good thing there are two of the activity centers, since sharing is becoming a problem.

D had to take some time out for a snooze, opening presents is a tiring thing to do.

M true to her personality wasn't going to miss a thing.

A great time was had by all, as soon as I edit out the protected people I will add more pictures.

Christmas Pictures

My how have they grown.

Mom and Dad wanted to have pictures taken for their Christmas card. How hard can it be, M and D smile alot, smile for the camera, and Mom and Dad are adults. Well 94 pictures, alot of crying, and kicking off of shoes there was one acceptable picture taken. Being part of the witness protection program, I am unable to show you the pictures, but here are some of the better ones.

Mom and Dad had their comfortable shoes on, although they are dressed very nice.

This is the only picture of M with her shoes on, if you notice she already has one half off. She likes them, just not ON!

Even after the shoes came off, she kept her mean girl face on. It was her favorite face of the day.

D has a cold, so even though he was handsomely dressed, he was a little whiny. Notice he is wearing his first tie. The shirt is a full button down shirt, he was a little man.

All in all it was a fun time and smiles were plenty as soon as the clothes came off.

Seven Months today

Here we are seven months old and all is well. New things this month, both of them blow bubbles, sit in the high chair to eat, and have taken their first drinks from a sippy cup. Princess for M and Pirates for D. Blessings abound!

They are just growing so fast, mom and I reminisced tonight and celebrated with cupcakes for everyone. From their first month birthday, I kept saying I was bringing the cupcakes and tonight I did!

M and D also played their first recital on great gram's organ, video to come later.

One of M and D's good friends had surgery today, it all went well and we are looking for a good outcome, please put T in your prayers today for a speedy recovery.

Here's the pictures you are waiting for.
