Not so fun Bumbo seats

The twins are just now 2 months and holding up their heads so I thought I'd try them in their Bumbo chairs. Charlie sat quietly with his head to the side and Catherine complained the whole time so I think we'll table this activity until next month. Hopefully you can figure out who's who...

Sisters x 3

Maddie and Kalee are great big sisters and always begging to hold the babies. After holding a baby for awhile, Maddie will often ask..."Is this Catherine or Charlie?".

We love Wednesdays!

Wednesdays are normally a day I get to work from home which means we get to have playdates usually with Aunt Sally and cousin Will or Jill and her sons Connor and Ryan. Ryan was born 8 days after the twins and Will just turned one so Charlie will have some boys to take a break from his sisters with.

We played dress up with Will last time he was here and I'm sure his Dad will be proud we got him in a tutu :) That's what happens with only girl toys at our house.

Maddie's Third Birthday-September 23rd

We had a month long celebration for Maddie's birthday, Kara, Kelsey and Kevin were in town the weekend before so we enjoyed some fun Auntie and Uncle time complete with a trip to the Renaissance Festival. The kids love their aunts and uncles and had a blast!
We let Maddie choose where she wanted to go for her birthday and she chose the zoo. It was a great day for it and not crowded at all, however Matt and I both noticed the animals looked a little "sad" to be caged up and it definitely wasn't like we remembered when we were kids. We won't even mention the story Maddie enjoyed sharing involving a monkey and poo. Maddie was called a princess by a lady at the Renaissance Festival and has since become obsessed with all things royal. Her uncle Markie even got her a princess tiara and clip on earrings!
