Wow...time sure does get away from us quickly! We are so busy getting into all sorts of
trouble fun that its hard to find time to stop and write about our days! We are both crawling around, and FAST. Grace is probably going to walk first...she can pull up on anything and one handed even! Plus this past weekend she learned to climb (EEK).

We had our first Easter which was tons of fun. We dressed up as little bunny rabits and got Easter baskets from Grammy and Grampy. Maybe next Easter we can eat chocolate instead of carrots.
We got to swing on our own for the very first time.
Chasing the cat (and sometimes cornering her) is one of our favorite things to do.
Mommy got this cool little splash pad for us to play on because we love bath time so much. It was a little chilly for our taste, but watching the water from Mommy's lap was fun!! I don't think Mommy had intended to get more wet than us, but a few tears, and into the pool Mommy went!
We had our first birthday party on April 22nd and our family came to spoil us rotten! We had such a good time and love all of our new toys. One of our favorites is this ladybug we can push around on the floor. It is also Mommy's favorite because it has no volume button and is super loud. Thanks Aunt Mary!! Mommy says she'll be sure to pay you back with something equally as cool for your boys!! We also had our first cake! We liked scraping the icing off the cake the best. It was a great 1st birthday party!!

After our first birthday, we stopped bottles and formula cold turkey. It was a little rough the first couple of days. That milk is COLD and the sippies were a little frustrating, but soon we figured out that sippies can make a wonderful mess when thrown on the floor. We are eating food and drinking from our sippies like old pros now. It is fun to go to restaurants and get kids meals!
We spent the weekend at the lake house for Grammy's birthday. We got to take our very first boat ride. It was a little noisy and windy, but within seconds we both conked right out.
We've been having some daycare drama. Apparently Grace has made some enemies....or vampires are after her. We aren't sure which. Luckily it seems to have stopped for the time being. We missed getting a picture of the first bite on the back of her arm, but here are the rest of them with the last one being the grand finale.
On Mother's Day we took Mommy to the Renaissance Festival in Waxahachie! It was so much fun. There were lots of cool costumes and music and people watching and we even split a turkey leg with Mommy! She said this Mother's day was a billion percent better than last Mother's Day! Grace had just come home from the hospital, but Anna was still in the NICU. That was rough! Who would have thought that 1 year later we'd all be sharing a turkey leg.

Things really have changed so much in the past year. It is so much fun to be able to get out and do more stuff. Being mobile is definitely keeping Mommy and Daddy on their toes. We got this cool toy over the weekend and Grace was giving free train rides! Its tons of fun!!
So that is all we have to report for now. Until next time!!
