So today I was changing Carson's diaper and noticed something odd about his belly button. I was worried at first glance, then quickly realized there was nothing to worry about. But, I am still very curious as to how this happened......hmmmm. Can you see it?
Here is a closer look. See it now? What is it?!?
An even closer look---that's right people, it's PEAS!!!
How did that happen?





Here is a couple pictures of poor little Cameron and how he feels during his miserable cold.
Poor baby! His nose will not stop running!

New Adventures....

We decided that the boys needed a haircut when we noticed that there was quite a bit of hair growing over their ears. I think Grandpa Wayne's comment was "Oh, fiddle!" when I told him that we thought they needed haircuts. David and I decided that neither one of us wanted to attempt this, so I met David at his appointment and the boys had their turns after Daddy. Most of the pictures of Carson are blurry as he did not want to sit still. Cameron did well and only gave the "stink eye" once or twice when she turned on the electric trimmer.


Another fun thing this month was that Carson decided that he likes to walk! No, not on his own yet. He walks behind his little scooter/walker. It's so funny when he goes from one side of the living room to the other and can't go any farther, he will turn and look at all the spectators to make sure they saw the whole thing. What a show! Cameron is not as into it as Carson, he would rather ride on the scooter than walk.


David turned 36 on the 19th of January, but we still have yet to do any celebrating. He was on the road most of the week and the weather has not been very good for anyone to come celebrate with us! I assume my upcoming birthday will be the same since it will be the same week as the twins turn one! That's right, in two weeks my little babies will be one year old already! People have always told me that it goes so fast, but it just seems so crazy! The boys share their birthday with their Great Aunt Ruth--Happy birthday, Ruth! I'm sure there will be a few pictures taken at their birthday party, so I will post more after that. Anyone is welcome to join us on Feb. 6th, at our house for the festivities!

Help!

Christmas 2009

Christmas just flew by for us, even with the big snow storm that was predicted. Anyone who knows my mom well, knows that if there is even so much as a flake in the air, she is not going anywhere! So, when she heard the weather man say "treacherous weather coming" she called to say they weren't coming for Christmas....What?!?! I started with the guilt trip--"You are going to miss the boys' 1st Christmas?!?!" That's all I had to say. Mom made it up here on Tuesday night as the storm was supposed to start in on Wed. Dad decided to stay home and keep the driveway clear. We just hung out and watched the snow/rain all day Wednesday. On Thursday, the original plan was for David's parents and Aunt Alice to come to our house for Christmas Eve, then we would all go to his parent's house on Christmas Day. Alice never made it because of the weather so we decided to pack up and head to Britt on Thursday and stay there until the storm passed. I don't know about Judy, but it was relaxing for me with both grandmas there! We headed back home on Saturday afternoon. On Sunday, we got up and got ready to head to Ankeny for the Fox Christmas at Sonja and Chez's. It was good to see everyone and just sit and talk. Once again, it was easy for me with so many people to hold and feed the babies! We headed home Sunday evening and the roads were not very good, once again. It could be a long winter!

Brotherly love....




The boys were entertaining each other this afternoon so I thought I would share a little video. I didn't get the best part, I'm not quick enough. They love to look out the big window in our living room. Hopefully they always have this much fun together!
