Look Who's 1

I love how blogger lets me organize these pictures this one should be at the bottom and so on but you get the idea. Maybe I just dont know how to use blogger if some one knows how to organize pictures on here please let me know. Happy BIRTHDAY BABIES!! MOMMY AND DADDY LOVE YOU!!!! We went to Missouri today for a family get together and it was at Jims grandpas church and he found this curtian which was hiding all of this stuff here he is going in.

Jims grandpa Elmer and the twins with their 1 yr cupcakes

He didn't like the cake as much as Kelsey Belsey

MMMMMMM good

Thank you to Daddy for picking out this cake (well we all went to Sams but he knows what he is doing so I had him fill out the form) we took the cake to all of the family get togethers today with the Hope that it does not make it back to our house.

Here they were 1 year ago today

The afternoon they were born, if you remember Carson didnt get to spend alot of time with us so we have a lot of pictures with Kelsey (he had a problem keeping up his body temperature so he had to stay in the nursery under heat lamps and bundled up).

Daddy and his babies

The morning of their birth, I was waiting for them to take me down to the OR oh yeah I got up out of this bed and walked there (with assistance of course) the nurse also did hold close the back of my gown too :)

Bathtime at Papa and Titas I think Kelsey was done

Papa and Kelsey so happy! She loves Papa and her daddy Papa came over last week when he was in town for work and Kelsey was loving on him.

There we are with the wagon on their first ride

Here is a toy my sister got them for their birthday it is a LeapFrog rock and groove table (or something like that) my sister said it was one of the top rated toys for 1 yr olds. I had a video of Carson playing with it but it was too long and wouldn't let me download on here I will try to get a shorter one this week.

Below is Carson walking around the house with his walker, he is getting really good.

What we have been up to

UH! hello to you camera and Daddy Pretty girl in her new outfit I couldn't get her to open her eyes

With Daddys hat on, I think she is saluting someone :) (her eczema (sp) on her cheek was bad here). I ended up having to break down and spend $15.00 on a jar of Aquaphor ointment and so far it seems to be working we shall see. One of the teachers at Mom's day out recommended it and someone else told me about it too and they said it really worked.

Oh I need to get that Elmo down so bad!! He tried everything he could to try and reach him at least it kept him occupied and not so whiny (they haven't been feeling well, they are both teething really bad and have colds).

Jim's parents got us this walker for the babies when we were at their house I have those pics but they are on my memory card and on this computer I don't have a slot so I have to wait until tomorrow to get the other ones off the laptop. Anyways he is getting really good at walking behind this. We took it around the living room and into the kitchen on Sunday he was grinning ear to ear.

Messing around with daddys hat, please forgive me for the very dirty shirt he likes to take his BIB off while eating now. I don't think they put their bibs on today at school because they had some food on their shirts when we got home I guess I will have to tell them that bibs are in their bag. This was like 4:45 by the time I took this and it was really bad but too late to change his shirt so I just left it on otherwise I would have already changed him.

Sorry the pictures are kind of out of order I couldn't get them all to download right with blogger.

KELSEY IS STANDING NOW SHE PULLED HERSELF UP IN HER CRIB THIS MORNING AND THEN A FEW MORE TIMES TODAY!!! YEAH KELSEY!!! Of course no pictures of it maybe I can get some tomorrow.

Sams Club has 2GB memory cards for $9.38 so I bought one yesterday my old card was not as big and was full so I was having to delete stuff and it would always say memory card full. I put the pictures on the computer and back them up but then I leave them on the camera so when I am out and people ask me if I have any pics I can whip out the camera. Jim also gets on my case about developing them, I don't do it enough. I try to do it every 3-4 months but I like to wait until I have a lot of them to develop that way I can sit down once and go through them and get copies made for family etc. Sams will be seeing my big order next month, before the babies were born I did like 80+ pics then I did 50+ for their announcements now I am sure I will have another 80+ again. I need to probably start doing it every month its just time consuming to pick which ones etc... Obviously I am really excited about the memory card I mean for $10.00 thats a steal .

Below is a video of Carson and I having some silly time!! He loves to grab Cameras, and cell phones, remotes etc.. so of course he is trying to grab the camera away from me.

Below is Carson with the walker it wasn't that great since like I said he takes it all over and does really well. It was coming on "witching hour" so he had other things on his mind.

Moms Day out

The babies started school today, however I did not get a picture because they were kind of fussy when we left and I left the camera at home. After dropping them off I organized their closet, I had boxes of clothes everywhere so I started marking them for a future garage sale and organizing them. Like what box is going to contain 25cent items, etc....
I also changed the sheets on their cribs and made our bed, I didnt get a chance to clean since the garage sale project (still not complete) took all of my time (I will keep plugging away at it next Tuesday). Its easier for me to price it all now and stick it in the boxes and then I just have to pull them out the night before the sale.

When I went to pick up the babies the teachers said they were very good (no surprise) they napped well and they ATE well, she said she had never seen babies eat so much. I packed them 2 jars of food and a thing of AppleSauce and fruit (which they didnt eat, dont know if they thought it would be too messy or what). They also had a couple bottles of formula and juicey.
Kelsey of course took all the other babies pacifiers and played with them (she is such a bully) :)
That's okay I love her anyway!!!

Weekend/Zoo

At the zoo, we couldn't get her arms in so this is how she was posing

He was licking the booth so we had to hurry (gross nasty germies)

monkeys

on the walking bridge with daddy and Tita all bundled up

Going down the slide she was really happy I just happened to not get a picture of it

At the zoo papa was holding Kelsey she loved it

In their Christmas present that Tita and Papa got them they love the wagon we took it around the block they loved it.

Kelsey girl in the neighbors swing

Carson going down the slide he loved it he would laugh and laugh only he wanted daddy to help catch him not mommy.

We went to Jim's parents this weekend and we all had such a great time, the babies really loved it. We played on the neighbors jungle gym, went to the zoo Jim and I got to go out to eat while Tita and Poppa watched the babies for us. We got home yesterday around 11 ish and I had to get some laundry done and go to the store since we had no food in the house.

The zoo was fun, however there were not alot of the animals out so some of the exhibits were pretty scarse (sp), we will go back in the spring or summer when the twins are bigger. They just really looked at some of the animals but really didn't comprehend any of it. They still had a good time though and so did I just being outside was nice.

Friday we went to the Walking Bridge and walked from one side to the other and waited for a barge to come in it was VERY VERY windy on the bridge and miss Kelsey kept kicking off her shoes and socks and Tita kept putting them back on her (It was quite funny). After the zoo on Saturday we went to the mall and did some shopping for the babies (they needed some winter clothes bad) since they have outgrown stuff they have. Thanks to Tita for helping us find some good deals now the babies are set for fall/winter and maybe into spring.

Election Day

Thank Heavens its Election day, I will be so glad when this political stuff is all over. Now I am not saying I have not enjoyed some of it but every day non stop to hear about it gets old. I know I am not in control over who our president will be, I know that God will determine that and all I can do is continue to pray that the right candidate gets chosen.
I voted on Oct 20th the 1st day they allowed early voting, so I didnt have to wait in line for a long time (I saw on Good Morning America) today that people in WV were lined up like 3 blocks, they must not have early voting there????

Grass and sippy cups

He's not sure about it!

He is chasing her

So they braved it and decided to crawl around in the grass today, they had such a good time. However Kelsey got a bit confused and started fussing because she couldn't figure out how to get back out.

Jim is on vacation this week and we are going to see Jims parents in Mayflower on Thursday. We are going to go to the zoo so it should be fun. The babies clap now when they are excited so they will clap at the animals.

We graduated to sippy cups today, we started last night instead of their nighttime bottle we did sippys and we are doing them during the day too. We did do 1 bottle today but thats it.... I bought some more sippys today at WM I had to go to pleasant grove WM since Bentonville only had the blue ones left nice! I think I have given up on Bentonville WM and will contiune to go to pleasant grove, plus with the Target coming soon I think they are price comping the sippys were 10 cents cheaper at PG today.

We shall see how long we last on sippys we may still use bottles but for the most part its sippys
