Hunter & Aunt Jen come for a visit

Aunt Jen & Hunter came today for a visit. We had a fun afternoon at the park. Essie also slept through the night for the second time in a row. WOO HOO! Now if we could just get Chloe to follow suit.

Ticklishness!

Pictures!

Fun times with Ashton!

We love food.

Future Asburians!

We love to help out around the house!

Fun hats!

Dandelions!

Grandma brought us fun jewelry!

Jon & Kate beats Sesame Street

Sesame Street comes on at our house at 10am. Today when I turned the TV on, it was on TLC and Jon & Kate Plus 8 was on. The girls have not stopped watching, even when the commercials are on. They usually lose interest with Sesame Street after 20-30 minutes so guess we have a new show to watch at 10am. The only problem is Mommy likes this show too so she's having a hard time getting things done.

Now for some pictures. The lack of sleep is catching up with us so we will probably not be posting pictures every night like we have been. We are apologizing now as we know many of you expect your daily dose of Essie and Chloe. Life is just too much for us now.

Pretty sure this is not how the manufacturer intended this toy's use, but twins make it work.

Playing with Great Grandma Ruth's tea set. Essie was named after this Grandma (Esther Ruth) whom she never got to meet. I'm sure Grandma Ruth is smiling down from Heaven at her two newest great grandchildren.

We are into Week 2 of Essie and Chloe at home. Here are some more pictures. (We know you've been waiting for them.)

Helping Mom clean up the yard - the twins are great helpers!

Tonight our friends Andy and Phoebe from our local adoption group brought us supper and stayed around to play for a while! Great fun! Thanks guys!

Monday Pics

Monday was a hard day on Mommy as the lack of sleep is catching up with me, but I did manage a few pictures of fun on the slide. I also had my first home visit last night. Getting back to work has been very hard to do.

First Sunday at Church

Today we took the girls to church for the first time. They were pretty shy, but they did okay. Of course, everyone at church was excited to see them.

Photos of the Day

I Saw the Light

Today the girls heard a song on the CD player that they really liked - "I Saw the Light". They have been singing it all day:

We haven't mastered pedals yet - so sister power works just as well.
