Sam's Strawberry Cupcakes

Samantha made strawberry heartshaped cupcakes with cream cheese icing this year for the Girl Scout bake off. Sam is still in the Brownie division & there were about twice as many in her group competing as in Shelby's. She did not place this year, but she did an excellent job. The babies could not eat enough of them! Samantha has also still been working hard on her writing. She says she want to be a journalist. She oftens takes her writings to school & reads them in front of the class. She said now other kids are doing the same thing. She said that made her feel good & I told her that is because she inspires people. What a great kid!

The Graduates

Well, Sarah & Sidney are almost 20 months old now. They have moved up at daycare. They are no longer in the baby room. When they turned 18 months old, they graduated to the 18 mo - 3 year old room. They were a little shy at first, but they fit right in now. They are no longer in a high chair & eat at a little kid's table with little kid chairs. Next on the list will be potty training. That will have to wait until at least this summer!

Sleeping Babies

I check on the babies each night to make sure they are covered up and in their bed. Sidney keeps crawling out and getting into Sarah's bed. This is the first time I saw them in this position. Must be remembering the good old days of being in the womb!

Grandpa Chuck Playing With the Twins @ Their 1st B-Day Party

Sidney Jess 1

My little Sidney is a funny girl. One day she was roaming around trying to find something other than her toys to play with. She found the diaper bag & new what to do. She put that strap on her shoulder & tried crawling around so we found a little purse her & Sarah could play with & Sidney just loves putting that purse on her shoulder. She is so cute playing at her kitchen set with her purse.

Sarah Bess 1

My sweet Sarah is a loving baby & a garbage disposal. She will put anything in her mouth. I found some small white piece of paper in her mouth & then later Eddie found a Made In China sticker in her mouth! She is a curious George too. Her & Sidney love to follow all of us around & see what we are into. They like opening & closing doors and love to play in their room. We have their room fixed up now with their toys so they can play in there instead of in the living room. Of course, they always come to visit us though.
