Sundays at church


Wow, I have fallen way behind!
The next couple of posts are going to be quick and dirty. Sorry, I have to get caught up!

So, on Sundays, when we go to church we sometimes have to put out some toys and just let the girls play in the aisles. That or we have upset babies! Well, anytime we do that we always have friends that want to come play with us.
And more come,
and more,
and more,
until the whole of kids in that area are now blocking the whole walk way.
Good thing we always sit in the back.

We are feeding ourselves, well sort of . . .

At 10am we have snack time, which the girls feed all to themselves! I love this meal. All I have to do is put out the food so they can grab it. I am able to sit back and watch them eat.
(Oh, 15 minutes to myself, I've missed you so)
So far they do really good. They are very good at chewing even though they have no teeth. They like to chew and stuck on celery, and I give them green bean and blueberries, but they are not as big of fan of those.
I can't believe they are already feeding themselves. Where does the time go?

Dressing up for Sundays

I am a big fan of dressing up the girls. I love to put cute (matching) clothes on them with head bows, shoes, leggings, bracelets, earrings, the whole nine yards! They just look so cute!
I mean, I have twin girls! One of the things I should be able to get out of this deal is dressing them up so cute. Right?
Sunday is my fav! I love getting them ready for church. We always get to wear our fun dresses and church shoes and then, when we get home I GET TO DRESS THEM UP AGAIN! Oh, why is it so much fun dressing such beautiful girls?

My diet!

It is official! I am down to my pre-pregnancy weight! Yeah!
I put myself on a diet and so far it has been working. I have lost the 50 pounds I put on during the pregnancy and now my new goal is ten more pounds. I need to lose ten more pounds by May 1st.
That is when the pools open.
(to be read with terror)

The diet is not that bad, and of the few things I can eat and can eat as much as I want. Which for me is why this diet is working. I love to eat!!!

I can have all the lean meats and vegs I want! Chicken, turkey, fish, and even lean beef or pork is fine.
I can have non-fat dairy and eggs too. I love my eggs so again this diet it working well with the food I like. I can even have sugar free desserts so if I am having a weak moment and need something sweet, I grab a fudge bar or jello or chocolate. Just as long as it's sugar free.

So far, so good! Ten more pounds, here I come!

Funny pic!

What can I say? She wants the cheese.

Fun at Aunt Kacee's


We love going out to Aunt Kacee's house because she lives out in AJ. It is so nice out there and the weather is always so wonderful. She has a friend that lives next door that has horses for us to love on and when the sun sets it is just beautiful.

Oh, . . and Cookie . . .
See that blur in the corner of the picture that is Cookie. She is chihuahua mix and around these girls she never sits still. Good thing too, the girls love to watch her run around everywhere. They get such a kick out of it.

Izzy was bouncing all over the place this time when we went out there, which Aunt Kacee loved. Maybe she will let us take Cookie home with us, probably not!

Izzy and Pepper really love to watch the horses. This one is really nice and we were able to pet him and even feed him.
Pepper wanted to touch him, but I was worried that the horse might think those cute little baby fingers looked too yummy. So I had to hold her hand back.
We always have such a fun time out at Kacee's. We will have to come back soon!
