Florida Vacation!

Sorry it's been so long since I last blogged anything. We've had a lot going on since. Blair has started at the Lineman college in Boise. We put our house up for sale in anticipation of having and wanting to move once Blair finishes. Our house ended up getting an offer the next day after being put on the market so we have been getting moved out and a few things repaired. It's been a crazy busy month. I also got the opportunity to go the Florida with my family. Yes- I took the twins with me. It was busy and fun and lots of work but well worth the effort. Blair was unable to go because of his school schedule but that didn't stop me from going and having a good time. So here are some fun pics from Florida.

Happy 1st Birthday!

So on Saturday the 14th we celebrated the twins 1st birthday. Now officially they don't turn one until the 17th but we wanted to do a party during the day. We had some family over and had a lite lunch and then stripped kids down to their diapers and let them dive into their own little cakes. It was quite the site. We had lots of fun and can't beleive we survived a year with twins.

My new sweet baby - Gertrude!

What do you think about my little new baby Gertrude?
MakeMeBabies.com - What will your baby look like?

So I found this funny website from a another girls blog and I couldn't help but try it and get a little laugh for the day.

Statton gets a haircut!

So my cousin Analee was kind enough to cut Statton's hair when she met me at my house so we could go to SLC for our girly weekend. It was pretty cute since it was his first haircut. I'd been hesistant about cutting it myself so I left it to someone who's been trained to cut hair. He liked having his hair combed with the water but wasn't sure about the trimming with the scissors.

Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. We've been enjoying the holiday season. We went to Pocatello to Blair's sisters house for Thanksgiving. We enjoyed spending some time with Blair's family. I recently got back from a weekend getaway to SlC with my mother, sister-in-law, Aunt, and some cousins. We've started a tradition where just us girls (no kids allowed) go to Utah for some fun shopping, eating, and just a good ole time! We had a lot of fun this year and rented a suite with enough room to sleep all of us. We thought next year it would be fun to go down during October when Gardner village has their Witches night. We hear it's a lot of fun so we think we'll check it out. It was the first time I had been away from the twins for more than a day so that was different. Blair's such a good dad to stay home all weekend watching 9 month old twins. What a man! Well I hope everyone's having a fun and safe holiday season. Merry Christmas!

Halloween Pictures!

Well Halloween is probably one of my favorite holidays. Even though I don't get dressed up usually for it I just love the whole fun atmosphere of the holiday. So I couldn't resist and I took the kids to kiddie kandids and had their pictures taken in their Halloween costumes. They're only little once, right?!





Just in case you were wondering Cassidy is a bunny and Statton is a frog. I really had a hard time finding a cute costume for Statton so I was glad when I ran across this frog costume online. Cassidy's was a no brainer.







I thought the pictures turned out pretty cute and I'm glad I did that with them. Statton did great and smiled for the ladies but Cassidy has been a little unsure about strangers lately so she got pretty teared up during the pictures. The ladies were nice enough and photo shopped out some of her tears for me. Well Happy Halloween to everybody.

October Update

I haven't put a post out for quite awhile. So I thought I would do just a quick little update on our little family. The twins had eye doctor appointments down in Ogden the first part of the month. They both checked out fine, no lazy eyes or cross eyes which I guess is common in premies. We'll take them back in a year for another checkup, they like to keep a close eye on them(no pun intented.) They put some drops in their eyes to dialate them and then we had to sit for 20 minutes for the drops to take effect. They both cried for just a minute when the drops were put in their eyes but then they were over it. Then we sort of celebrated Blair's birthday on Oct. 4. I had to work that weekend so we wouldn't be going out to dinner or having much of a birthday celebration. I figured he celebrated his birthday the day before by going to the BYU vs. Utah State football game. He went with my dad and brother a couple of uncles and cousins that all met in Logan that morning for a round of golf and a late night football game. They had a fun time. It's kind of becoming a yearly tradition. That's pretty much been the highlights of the month. We are so excited for Halloween. Cassidy is going to be a cute pink fluffy bunny and Statton is going to be a cute froggy.
