Thanksgiving was great. Dave's sister Michelle and her family came in town and we played kickball (we couldn't find a football or soccer ball) at his parents' house. I also had to climb a tree that Dave kicked the ball into. The guys kicked it toward the trees so many times it eventually popped...but it was fun nonetheless. The boys got some cousin time - cousin Avery in these pictures:
I made apple pie:
Papa: "Good news and bad news about your pie - Ivy tried all the pies and liked yours the best. Bad news is she thought it was strawberry."
And that's good enough for me!
Today we are listening to Christmas music while I try to make Christmas presents for the family.
This past month they have gotten much easier to put to bed (they sleep from about 10 to 6 every night - a schedule that will probably be destroyed during their 3 week trip to California at Christmas time), they grab things from our hands and try to eat everything, they moved up diaper sizes and clothes again, and David has been teething since he was 4 MONTHS OLD.
This month we will be getting them used to sleeping in their own crib, giving them rice cereal, and who knows what else. These babies are hungry for some food! Dave already gives them tastes of things, like apple sauce at Thanksgiving dinner. He just wants to feed them meat and tell them about the world... He thinks he's some kind of Ron Swanson or something. I'm okay with it.
In case you want a gazillion pictures of my children........
So wiggly.
They are so different but they are going to have so much fun together. You can already see that they love each other.
David left. Harrison right.
David has this spasticness about him that makes for great photos... reminds me of myself (and my brother). He arches his back like above in attempts to get up.
More spasticness. They're the best ever.
