We All Scream for Ice Cream ~ July 7, 2010
So tonight we decided to go out for ice cream. It has been hot an humid down here, and a Dairy Cream dipped cone sounded wonderful. The cone ended up being shared between the entire family, Matthew couldn't get enough... Ryan... wasn't interested.

Keeping Daddy Busy ~ June 24, 2010
We officially have two walkers. Yay! And with that comes more things the boys can get into, and they know this too. We are keeping ourselves busy here, chasing after our twosome. They really like to climb onto things right now, and mommy and daddy are great ladders to get onto the coffee table and couch, both of which are off-limits when mommy is home by herself with them. But when we are both around to keep a close eye on them, we let them get away with more.
Both boys finally have all four of their 15 month molars completely in, thankfully! We are back to sleeping good during the night, and one decent nap during the day.
We have tried out the inflatable pool we got for the boys' birthday already, it's been so hot down lately. Matthew loves the water, after he gets over the initial shock of the cold. Ryan doesn't like it at all. I tried to bring them to the local pool once during the day, by myself... never again. I had one boy who didn't want to get out, and one boy that didn't want to get in... :)
I hope you all had a wonderful Father's Day. Jason was sent up to our attic to evict a nest of birds that had built between the attic floor and our bedroom ceiling. That was not fun on a 95 degree day! :)
Here is a movie of the boys:
And some pictures from the last month.

Walking Tall ~ May 22, 2010
First of all, thank you everyone who came to the boys' first birthday party. I am sorry the weather was not as perfect as a mom could hope, but we made due with a few blankets and the boys definitely had a great time. Unfortunately birthday pictures are on another card at the moment, so I don't have any of those to post. But I will try and get those up as soon as I can.
So we made it a year. WOW, I know! The boys are almost walking now... they each can take about three steps on their own before they fall, or squat back down and crawl. Here's a video of Matthew:
Matthew's first steps
Soon the days will get that much more hectic for me, with them running in opposite directions. I can't wait! Here are a few more videos from the past few weeks:
Lunchtime shenanigons
Chasing puppy
Here are some pictures of the boys enjoying their new toys from their birthday.

One more week ~ April 28, 2010
I know, I have to start posting more than once a month. Sorry about that! Things are busy here, but I will try and drop a picture or post a little more often. It should be easier now that the boys are sleeping all night consistantly now. (YAY!) But I find other things to do with my free time at night.
Anyway, can you believe the boys will be one year old in a WEEK?! No, neither can I. Time has just flown by! I have a few quick pictures and videos to share, it's late here and I need to get to bed... just in case it is a rough night (you never know when teeth will bother Ryan).
Matthew standing... yikes! (notice he's unsupported at the beginning of this video, we'll be walking soon!)

Haircuts ~ February 18, 2010
My it has been a while since I have posted. The boys continue to grow... everyday they seem to do something different. Matthew is finally crawling, one day he just decided to go and ever since he hasn't stopped! So now we really have our hands full, as one seems to go in one direction while the other is off the opposite way.
Ryan is really smart. We have a gate up in the living room between the couch and the kitchen, keeping the boys out of the kitchen and out the dog bowls and computer wires. Well, Ryan has learned how to pull the gate open at the couch and every once and a while I will hear his excited noises and I turn around and off he goes into the kitchen. He gets really mad when I hold the gate shut too... I can't wait until he starts to move faster! He will be keeping me on my toes.
Matthew, on the other hand, started pulling himself up on everything. As soon as he learned he could crawl, it seemed like the next day he was off and trying to walk already! He is a little stinker too. He pulls himself up on the coffee table, and when I tell him "no" he will look over and laugh at me. Off course, I can't help but laugh too, he's too cute... so that doesn't help matters!
But anyway, back to my post. A few weeks ago I decided that we were going to need an electric hair trimmer, since I will have to cut the boys' hair often, can you believe Ryan has had his hair cut three times already? So the other day we tried the trimmer out on the boys. Here are pictures from that adventure.

Ryan could have used a little more cut off, but we were still learning on his haircut. He'll need another one soon enough!
