Ready to ride!

Ok, so the boys are totally fascinated by cars! They absolutely love the neighbors power wheels jeep that they have. I hope that we are able to get them one soon…they are pricey but I think it would be well worth the money for them. I have my eye on the Jeep Hurricane by Fisher-Price. I think it looks so cool and it goes up hills and over rock and stuff so we would be able to take the boys on the path that runs behind our house. They would have a blast…especially as they get even more coordinated in how to steer!
Survey taking fool!

I recently started taking these paid online surveys periodically just to see what they were all about. I just received my first payment in the mail for a whopping 3 million…oh wait I mean $3.00 LOL! I figure it is $3.00 more than I had before so it is a bonus. You have to love free money!
New shoes

I went to get the boys some new shoes at stride rite. It was the last day of their buy one get one 50% off sale. When you have twins a sale is always your friend. The boys are growing leaps and bounds and grew right out of their size 8 shoes! The last time we were there they were 11 months old and were measuring at the size of a two year old! I love stride rite shoes because they come in wide widths and since the boys have chubby lil feet, they seem to be comfortable in them. I got them the cutest sandals and just some comfy tennis shoes. The sandals are nice because they go on quick and they can get them wet in the summer months. I put them in a half size bigger so they have a little room to grow…they look huge on their feet. My babies are growing up!
Going to the Circus!!

Next month Grandma and Grandpa will be coming up for a visit and we are all going with the boys to their first circus! I think they are really going to enjoy it. Monkey and Bubs are clapping now when they hear or see other people clapping, so they should get a kick out of being there at the circus. There will will be lots of stuff going on so it should be entertaining. I haven’t been to the circus since I was little so it is so much fun to be able to do and share these things with the boys for the first time. So we are off to The Ringling Bros. And Barnum & Baily Circus!
Love to Run

The weather is finally getting nice outside so the boys naturally love to be outdoors. With the exception of the bugs, I enjoy it as much as they do! What am I gonna do when they bring me that first worm or frog? You are likely to see me running from the house LOL!
Go Away Sickies!!

Well we are on day 12 of being sick here. Both boys have been cranky and have had runny noses and coughs! I have been battling whatever this kung foo goo is right along with them. BUBS has developed wheezing and a cough so we are taking him to the doctor today. Most of the time they tell you its a virus but with his record of ear infections we’d rather be safe than sorry. Sigh..I hope it leaves our house soon!
Making Life Easier

Being a mother of twins, I am always looking for things that make my life a little easier! Whenever we go to restaurants we always have a hard time with where to put the boys’ food because we never want to put it directly on the dirty table tops and the paper place mats they give you always go flying off the table. If the plates were a little less breakable then that would be great because often times the plates can go flying with two toddlers! While I was at Babies R’ Us this past weekend I found these really cool place mats that you can travel with and they roll up when you’re done and you can wash them at home, they also have this really cool catch all pouch so you aren’t losing a ton of food on the floor! I’m sure the staff at the restaurant appreciate that! Its the Tiny Diner by Kiddopotamus…Did I mention I love these things??!!

Well I am slowly getting the hang of posting on my blog. There is so much to learn especially when using word press. I finally figured out how to create a link to another web page so at least I am getting somewhere! There are just so many options!
