This week....

Trains Anyone?
I'm cool, when are we going to eat?
Ah cars, thank goodness for Lightening McQueen
Okay we're dressed where are we going?

This week was an interesting and busy week. While Momma was at work Jet and Daddy were left to entertain themselves and now Jet's room is covered in train tracks. It does keep him busy, but is a little difficult to navigate. Daddy had his first softball games on Tuesday. This season started off very well with 2 wins, and Andy had 2 home runs, 2 triples and a double. Harleigh and Rogue are eating at the table with us at dinner now that they have high chairs, everyone seems to be enjoying this, though it does make the table very crowded! Jet is sharing his toys with his sisters for now, though I'm not sure how long this will last once they can actually play with them. And last but not least Daddy got the girls all dressed up to go out!

Happy Illinois Easter!

Jet tried the bunny right away but that was the only bite he's had of it. He was more into playing with his turtle car.


Maggie, Jet and Henry showing off their "goods"

Harleigh's not so much into the basket thing

She does really like her new sunglasses though!

and Rogue is excited about everything in her basket.

Easter itself was a good time. Jet had fun with his basket and showing his sister's their basket's. He also enjoyed the egg hunt with his cousins. We just really hung out most of the morning doing nothing much then I made a fabulous lunch of grilled cheeses and we all ate together before we headed on our way. (Mommy and Daddy made stuffed shells for dinner Saturday night and Grandma Linda made her chocolate cake with homemade chocolate frosting that even after 5 years mommy can't get right :) The trip home was basically uneventful, everyone got a nap except mommy, and now we're all getting back into routine after all the exciting travels we've had lately.

First Food!

You want me to do what?
More Please Daddy, faster!

With the girls approaching their 4 month birthdays we get to start feeding them cereal! We did this for the first time with Grandma Linda for Jet so we decided to do the same thing with the girls. Harleigh loved it while Rogue wasn't quite as sure. All in all it was a good thing though. Daddy's very excited about it because it means there are less bottles to wash!

Illinois Trip

Well for Easter weekend we went to visit Grandma Linda in Illinois. We also saw Aunt Betsy and Henry and Uncle Paul and Maggie. We went bowling, no I don't have photos of this, the camera ran out of batteries as soon as we got there and by the time I got more we were all finished and I only got a photo of the girls in their seats on a table there. The kids "camped" in the living room because it was too cold outside to do it anywhere else. We also played a little guitar with Uncle Paul. Grandma Linda got to relive the old days of taking care of twins and Betsy gave it a go also! It was a good trip, Jet had a great time playing with Henry and Maggie. When we were leaving he told us he was going to stay at Grandma Linda's house and we could go home without him. Poor guy, I wish we lived closer so he could play with them more often.

Happy Kansas Easter

We also went to Emporia to celebrate Easter at Granny and Pops. We had a good time decorating cookies and eggs. Jet really enjoyed his basket and making a mess of the grass all over Granny's floor. The girls even wore their Easter dresses. They liked it much more than the photo's show, they were just hungry when Momma decided to take them. (I swear, although Andy just says they're protesting the dresses because they're not girly girls)

Play Date!

The girls and Jet had their first play date in a long time. Our friends the Snyders came up from Wichita to visit us when we were in Emporia last weekend. We haven't really seen them since we moved up to the KC area a couple of years ago so it was great to catch up. Jet and Kyler had a great time playing and chasing each other through the house, and the girls got along great! Harleigh and Rogue took right to Ella, then they are used to always having someone there to play with so what's one more? Anyway, everyone had such a great time we're going to have to do this more often. Actually we're the only couple that live up in KC, everyone else is down around Wichita, maybe we'll have to be the ones to move, no just to figure out where we'd work, especially me....If anyone has any ideas.......

Visiting

We finally made it back down to Rapids to visit. Everyone was really excited to see the girls and Jet! (nobody cares about momma and daddy anymore) The girls are so much bigger and more active then last time we made it home. And Jet is even more independent (some days that's a real tiral for Momma) Anyway it's spring break for my mom, so Jet is staying with them for part of this week while the girls came home with us and are actually staying with us as the daycare's husband and son both have pneumoniae. It's pretty nice to just stay home from work without being sick or having sick kids, the only downside is it's eating our vacation pools. Oh well! Anyway here are a few photos from this weekend. I will have more of Jet at the parade and stuff like that when my parents get them sent to me. Enjoy!

Silly kids

Well, the girls love their swings. Good thing we have 2 or we'd never get rest! Anyway, here's a couple of shots that I thought were worthy of posting. Rogue is a little wiggler, can you guess what Harleigh is doing? and how on earth does Jet sleep like that? (we find him in many wierd positions in the morning, this is one of my favorites)

3 months-- Pretty Girls in Dresses and Bows!

Well, last Thursday the girls turned 3 months old! Amazing how fast it goes. Everyone's doing very good. Harleigh's still sleeping like a champ and Rogue's getting there. We didn't have a dr. appt this month so these aren't exact, but Harleigh's around 12 lbs and Rogue's about 11 lbs. They're so big. We're playing much more these days and love our play gyms and tummy time. No rolling over yet, but lots of going around in circles. We've really been enjoying the weather, getting out for walks and wearing pretty dresses and bows. Daddy is okay with the dresses, but he forgot our tights at Granny's house so we can't wear them very often (also we only have 2, the ones in the photos) and Daddy really thinks the hair bows are dumb. Oh well, Mommy thinks they're cute!
