1 YEAR STATS!!

Today we had our 1 year appointment with Dr. Ball. Daddy met us there from work so he could see how much we weighed and to comfort us after our 4 shots. They had so much fun playing at the big window 2 stories up and watching all the cars come in and out of the parking lot. As we were walking out of the office this morning we saw our old double snap and go with tiny twin babies in them. Another reminder at how fast this year has gone, literally in a blink of an eye. How I miss those sweet days of holding them all day and snuggling as they slept peacefully in your arms, but how I am cherishing these new days of new their found freedom, discovery at every corner and the joys of them expressing every whim!!

Sunny Days at the Park!!

When John and I got home from our night away this afternoon we took the kids to the park!! It is beautiful in Southern California....75 degrees. I feel like summer is around the corner!!

Happy 1st Birthday Mia & Jacob!!!

On the morning of Mia and Jacob's 1st Birthday we headed out to Goofys Kitchen at the Disneyland Resort to start their special day off eating breakfast with Goofy & Friends. Jacob and Mia had the best time ever, laughing and squealing all through breakfast. Everytime they would put something else in their mouth to eat another "friend" would sit with us at our table. They LOVED every minute of it, no hesitation or fear at all. In fact Mia wanted to share her breakfast with all of them and Jacob wanted to rub noses and heads with all of them. So sweet!!! Our day couldnt have been any more perfect. After breakfast we strolled down to the Disneyland and the kids napped for over an hour, I guess all that activity at breakfast wore them out. When they woke up we were in Disneyland and went on a few rides had lunch and then headed home for a long afternoon nap. Where else better to celebrate this special day then the happiest place on earth!!

A day in the life of Twins.....

This short video was taken last night while I was preparing dinner for them, I looked over the island and this is what I saw........
They have turned our highchairs into walkers..even with all the brakes on!

Digital Scrapbooking!!

Do you like the new blog header?? I am so proud of myself, I have finally conquered the world of digital scrapbooking. I have scrapbooked for years and years and was so intimidated to try digital scrapbooking.. so on my day off today I conquered my fear and just went for it....while the babies were sleeping of course :) I am addicted now I love it!!! Now that I have mastered, layering, shadowing, erasing and playing with all these tools on my photoshop elements I can't wait to do more.

I'll be back to post 11 month pics of Mia and Jacob!!! Can you believe they are going to be one in less than 3 weeks! One of my friends has a countdown on her blog to her twins first birthday, I can't bring myself to do it...I'm definitely in denial :)
