Since our girls started walking, they have aged like 12 years or something. Now Sadie is walking around talking on the cell phone like she's had it for years. Wait til they start texting!! Maegan is in pink, and she has the best laugh! They are definitely girls to the core, they giggle all the time.

Summertime in Full Swing
Julie and the girls went with some friends this week to Bluebell in Brenham. They got to eat ice cream, and went swimming for the first time (even though we didn't really get any pictures of it). They are getting so big, meeting me at the door when I come home!!

Easter Sunday 2009!
We had a wonderful day today... the girls woke up to find easter baskets with a monogrammed bunny (So there is no confusion later on with who is whos) and eggs with baby treats inside. So fun! They enjoyed it and cuddled on their bunny all morning. We went to church with Aaron's mema and papa and then to their house to celebrate this wonderful day with the Landin's. The girls first Easter was a hit! Here are some beautful pictures...

6 days!

mmmm...Sadie licking soup off the lid
mmm....Maegan's turn
The girls will be one in 6 days... bitter sweet. They are all over the place these days!!! Crawling, cruising, scooting, whatever and however to get somewhere. I am just waiting the day until the first independent steps will be made. They have the balance, just not the confidence yet. I think Sadie will be first, but once Maegan sees her doing it then she'll be right along with her. I haven't put up gates yet, but I see that I'm going to soon.
It's crazy to say, but I am feeling more freedom these days...The freedom to leave the house more often and the freedom to leave them with family/friends during the day. They have always been great at their Granmommy's house but other times not so much without their mommy. The girls are growing more independent and I'm not as worried as I once was. They are pretty content most of the time and love being outside or inside. They explore anywhere and everywhere and that keeps them quite busy.
Easter is this week and then their birthday is next week, so we have a fun couple of weeks ahead. I am sad that my babies are growing up, but so blessed to have two beautiful, healthy growing girls... they have the sweetest smiles and their personalities are amazing.... very different and amazing. I know the days to come will be filled with even more excitement and adventure than the last year... Here are some recent pics...

10 months old!!
The fun begins....
Maegan found something interesting... she's already multitasking
Wow! I can make noise by banging them together - Sadie

Stormie is right in the middle as usual. She can't get enough or I think it's the other way around.

Girls playingSaturday, February 21, 2009
It seems the count down has begun, only 2 months and the girls will be 1. April 16th is the big day... It's a weird mix of emotions. I love that they are getting bigger, more independent, more interactive with me and each other, but at the same time I want it all to stop and slow down. This time last year I had a huge bump of a belly and we were anticipating the arrival of our babies. Thinking they would come early
Last night Aaron and I went to the Chris Tomlin concert in Houston and worshiped God with everything we had. Granmommy was gracious to keep the girls all day Friday and then overnight so we could have a day to ourselves. It was lovely and relaxing. No time limits... I'm so used to looking at the clock continuously throughout the day because of eating, napping and wondering when Aaron will be home! Yesterday we didn't care what time it was and enjoyed the beautiful day. I'm not posting pics this time but will later in the day.
The girls have 6 teeth altogether, which the top 4 came in at 9 months. I am thankful that they cut their teeth at the same time and all 4 top came in together too!! Because of this milestone that happened together, we wonder could they be identical? Sometimes we think they could be, especially when everyone outside of our house thinks they are!!! Aaron and I are the only two who can tell them apart and who are convinced they are fraternal, I'm sure time will tell us as they continue to grow.
They are eating anything and everything they can get their hands on... or that I put on their tray or in their mouth. Table food has become their food of choice and they get frustrated with me if I try to feed them from one of their bowls. This all started when they were sick in January and stopped eating for a while. We went back to lots of formula and started back to scratch on solids. They then showed me what they were ready for and it wasn't baby food anymore. It has been hard to learn what to feed and how to feed babies, especially two of them! I was stressed for a while, but I am finally realizing that they can pretty much eat anything, except a few main foods that get choke them. It's been hard, but God is in control of these babies and he shows me everyday.
Their personalities are completely different...Maegan in soft spoken, squeels, is high pitched and laid back. She is happy in one place on the floor and in a rainforest jumper. I usually have to take her out when I'm ready, instead of when she's ready. She has taken to table food amazingly, which is completely opposite from a couple months ago when she would cry until she was out of her chair. Sadie is loud, grunts, has a lower voice and is ready to get on with the next activity. She is very active on the floor and doesn't stay long in one place. Sadie on the other hand does not want to be in her high chair long, so fusses until she's out... unlike a couple months ago when she was happy in her chair while eating. They swap personalities all the time and as soon as Aaron and I get used to one way with them, they have decided to switch and turn it around on us.
The girls are starting to cruise now. Maegan began moving her feet around and picking up her legs while standing about two weeks ago and Sadie started this week. It won't be long until they will be everywhere in our little house and I will be right behind them. They have really started to interact and play. I love to sit back and watch while there not looking. I will update with pictures next time.

The twins 1st Christmas
The girls first Christmas was very exciting. The are at the age when the wrapping paper tastes good and the boxes, bows and ribbon are way more interesting than the toys. The had fun taking turns unwrapping and grabbing paper from each other. They love taking things from each other...I can tell sharing is going to be a hard concept to grasp with twins. We spent Christmas early with my family in East Texas and then Christmas day was spent with Aaron's family in town. It was memorable and I am already pumped for next year's Christmas. I truly can't wait till we get to teach the girls the true meaning of Christmas. We will celebrate Jesus's birthday...Praise God for his love and goodness through Jesus Christ Our Lord!! Here are pictures of the twins 1st Christmas with family and friends....
The girls first experience with unwrapping presents. They were tasty...
