Been to busy (and tired) to post about a topic......

so, at the request of Zena, here are few recent pics of the kids.  Enjoy!  I'll try and remember something interesting for my next post.





I am saving some more for later!  Never know when I will have to do this again.

Will the real twins please sit in the basket



More proof who should have been the twins.


Ally has never climbed into the basket.  

But she is learning other things from her sister.

Vocabulary

First off, excuse the punctuation, I know I am supposed to be using quotes and such but does it really matter?  

The girls had their 15 month check-up and one of the questions they asked was how many words are they saying.  When you have twins and a 3 year old, you don't really count and if you do, you can't remember.  I told them about 5-10 but since then, I have become acutely aware of their vocabulary.  Yesterday while getting dressed my shoes were on the floor, Ally picked up one and said Mama shoe.  Not bad.  Wyatt and I were looking for Maggie and Wyatt was singing a song to have her come, Maggie, Maggie, this is Wyatt calling.........Maggie then screamed Whaaaaaut (Wyatt).  Then when we were at Target, I turned down the baby food aisle and Maggie started going, mmmmmm! mmmmmmm!    So many things happen, it is hard to keep up.  I am going to have to write them down.  They are advancing so quickly, both are walking and practically running. I can barely keep up.

I ran across a listing of Wyatt's vocabulary from when he was first talking here it is:

Bodin -  This was his favorite word, if he didn't know the correct word for the item, it was bodin. The floor was bodin, his plate was bodin, a bush was bodin.  Everything was bodin.
Cemix - Cement Mixer truck.
Dver - DVD, he still uses this.
Vac Cleaner - Vacuum Cleaner
Daddin - Daddy, he used this term up until about 1 year ago.
I Can't see my eyes! - It is dark
Chicken Numnuts - Chicken Nuggets
Donals - McDonald's
Other - His name for Ally when she was first born.  He could say Maggie but he referred to Ally as other.  As in the other baby.
Humidfier - Fireplace
Cribby - His crib or now his bed
Pineapple - Pine cone
Washcar - Car Wash
Bam Maid - Bandaid
Coints - Coins
Teamers - His team when he played t-ball.  Sometimes he would say that he didn't want to be a teamer.
Toomario - Tomorrow
O Commin Up - His way of spelling things or saying the alphabet, you would ask him and he would say, o commin up, o b w y 4.
The Ark - Arkansas

That's about all I can remember.  He still comes up with some good ones.  I need to remember to write them down.  By the way, this post has taken me about 3 hours to write in between feet getting caught in play tractors, changing the TV, filling sippy cups, answering the phone, hands getting caught, potty breaks (myself and Wyatt), diapers changed, quiet kids (not good must investigate), looking at trucks lined up, etc. etc.  I LOVE IT!
