1 and 3/4 years old!

Yesterday, the girls turned 21months old! Whoa- does that mean that their 2nd birthday is just around the corner!?!? They are hilarious and saying the funniest things all the time. And, last week, both girls peed on the potty - it was very exciting! We had a great Thanksgiving with lots of family (pictures coming soon!) and yesterday, Mike even brought them to cheer me on while I ran the Seattle 1/2 marathon. Next up - we're going to decorate our tree and we can't wait for our trip to Atlanta in a few weeks to see Mike's family.

Laughing

I love how they make each other laugh!!!!

More Dancing!

I think it's hilarious when they go crazy, boogying down to dance songs!

Boyfriends

I think Noah's in trouble!

This morning - feeling the love

Daddy cuddles with Caroline and Macie, while Mace gives Caroline some love....

Best invention for grandparents of twins!

Macie and Ama, going for a walk.

Caroline pulling Daco!

Everybody squat down and look at leaves!!!!

Putting baby to bed

Macie has lately been taking really good care of her baby doll! She cuddles her, tucks her in, and gives her lots of kisses.

We love our baby dolls

Macie, feeding the babies

Caroline pulling her babies in the awesome laundry basket contraption that Ama and Daco built to pull C and M around in!

Night night, baby!

Places to sit

Gamblin' Girls

Caroline: I'll raise you two baby dolls and a binkie

Macie: Bring it, sis!

Did you say chips? I love eating those!

Jumping lessons

Noah shows the girls how it's done!

Playing with Noah

Small, Medium, and Large - all ready to play outside!

The three musketeers looking for trouble!

Whoa, Macie! Just because someone has the same jacket as you doesn't mean you need to give him a smooch!!!!

Veterans Day with the cousins

Gabe and Jonathan invited the girls over to play on their day off from school - they were busy....

building FORTS - Caroline checks out Gabe and Macie behind her....

Caroline watches some construction on the new house!
Jon tickles Macie!

Here doggy!

Oh, it's Gabe!

The best toy

C and M get in one more session in the box before bedtime....

More Splash

They are protecting the art of splashing. And, patting each other's backs.

Super Nanny

The girls get so excited when Ashley comes on Mondays - they watch for her car, say her name, and jump up and down! As soon as she's in the house, here's the scene....

Cute pics

Caroline eating chocolate chips and letting Macie pull her hair. I just love this picture!

Who, me? I didn't pull anyone's hair!

How do you like them apples?

Did you know the PCC gives every kid a free piece of fruit when you're grocery shopping? It's awesome! The girls gnawed on their apples all the way home. Interesting eating patterns, huh?

Slippers from Sarah

Macie modeling her new toasty-warm moccasins from our friend Sarah, or as the girls say, "Sah-wah"

Checking out each other's feet and shades of pink....

Caroline as Cindy Lou Who

She's not going to let the Grinch steal anything from her with that hair!

Jumping!

The pillows were just getting in their way, so Macie and Caroline got rid of them and used the coach for what it's obviously meant for - JUMPING!

Child labor?

Macie was really excited to sweep, so I got out the mop for Caroline and they went crazy! Maybe they're trying to tell me something about my floors....?

Halloween Week

The girls (surprisingly!) loved dressing up in their costumes, so here are some pictures of them over the last week because they ask to wear them every day!

First day in costume - Caroline shows Macie her trunk while the wild animals eat lunch (with bibs, of course!)
Second day - the girls show me their favorite stuffed animals, which were the inspiration for this year's outfits.

Friday night - getting ready to hit up the stores on 35th! Let's go!!!!
Off we go! The girls walked almost the whole time!!!! They loved looking at all the other costumes - especially Elmo! And, they didn't mind getting candy, either :)

Macie shows off her booty


Caroline has her first piece of chocolate

Saturday - actual Halloween! We took the girls to University Village, where the businesses hand out candy and EVERYONE shows up. It was packed! We lasted about 30min here....

Back to our house for some neighborhood trick-or-treating and hanging out with our friends, the lion, monster, Max from Where the Wild Things Are, the elephant, and the dragon!

Family pic - mom and dad weren't very creative this year.

Crazy elephant!
I love this picture of Caroline, Max, and Macie!

Monday - surprise, surprise, the girls wanted to wear their costumes again! We got some stange looks when we went out in the stroller, but I thought it was pretty funny!
