Rice Cereal

We decided to give solid foods a try.... the girls were a little skeptical but we are not giving up yet. I mean, they have Judd's and my genes, they are bound to pick up on the wonder of eating sooner or later, right!?

I think that Claire wants to try this first........

You can keep giving it to me, but I am going to keep spitting it out.... how long should we play this game?

I can do this all night long

Are you kidding me with this!?

I am not so sure about this!

Can I just have a ba-ba, mom?

The 12 (or in this case, 30) days of Christmas

Well, now that the decorations are down, the bills are payed and the thank you notes written, it is time to grant all the requests and FINALLY post a blog of the girls' first Christmas. We had a wonderful time with all of our friends and family. Here are some pictures of our family's first Christmas. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

Maybe next year, we will be bigger than our stockings!


"Hey, she got more than I did!"



"I'll keep humoring you mom, but I would rather take a nap!"

Six months old and best friends

Do you believe the little munchkins are six months old already!? They are starting to be more aware of one another which is both darling and problematic. They make each other laugh, especially when one sneezes (odd but true). The current favorite toy is whichever one the other one is playing with...... we are glimpsing our future with fights and temper tantrums! Here are some pictures of them both in action.

It's my turn!!!

Hello everyone, its Lucy here! Mommy put Claire down for a nap so it is time for MY first blog! I had a great Christmas! We got a new video camera so you will get to see lots of us in the future! Mommy sure does love to take pictures and videos of Claire and me. She tells me that we are pretty cute! I really like to play with my sister. She sure does make me laugh. She takes my toys a lot though too so it is nice when she sleeps and I have them to myself! I like to play on the floor and roll around.

My toys are pretty cool but I love it the most when other people play with me. Mommy calls me a “people person” but I just love to talk! I am really getting into belly laughing! Daddy says that there is nothing better in the world than to hear my belly laugh! Below is a video where Claire just cracked me up! I am playing so hard during the day that, most of the time, I sleep through the night now. This really makes Mommy and Daddy happy! I also really like to take naps in my swing. Well, I am getting pretty hungry so I am going to go have a baba and watch the Ellen Show….. I like to dance with Mommy when Ellen plays music!

Love ya,

Lucy

A shout out from Claire

Hello everyone! This is my first official blog so I thought that I would tell you all what I have been up to over the holidays! I had a great time while Daddy was on vacation for almost two weeks!! He went back to work today so Mommy, Lucy and I are trying to pass the time. I am just loving life right now! I smile all the time, I play with my toys and I have the absolute best time in my jumperoo! Hopefully soon, Mommy will get a video of it and you can see me in action. It took a bit for me to understand what I had to do but once I got the hang of jumping, I went to TOWN! I also really like to dance, especially when my cousins, Nick and Max are around. They are so funny. They like to dance and then tell me to "freeze" and I stop dancing. Below is a video of it from Christmas. Yes, that is a bow on my head...... Grandad thought that it would be funny to put bows on Lucy and me.

I also REALLY like mirrors. I don't really understand who is in the mirror but she sure is good looking! Sometimes that baby in the mirror gets so excited that she scares me a little bit but mostly she just makes me laugh! Well, Mommy tells me that it is time to take a nap. I had better get going.

Love,
Claire

Here are some pictures of me in action. Often times, I play so hard that I just have to take a nap right in my jumper!
