Millions of Jelly Belly Beans...

I went with some friends (Jess, Chel, Amy and Jenny) to the Jelly Belly Factory. I love our little outings. We had 5 adults and 9 kids! It was fun. Obviously a little over the twins heads... like they care how to make jelly bellys... they can't even eat them. Well, they can taste them in like 4 to 6 hours... cause I sure did have my share. :) It was a lot of fun and I can't wait until our next outing.

!!! Half a Year !!!

Yea! Merrick and Berkleigh have reached the half year mark. 6 MONTHS OLD! We can't believe it. It has been a great 6 months. We talk to lots of twin parents, and they say they don't remember the first 2 years. I hope I have documented enough where I do. It has been hard, but exciting... and very worth it. Happy 6 months little ones.

Berkleigh Crawls... to early? Guess not!

Berkleigh decided to try out her legs. :) She is getting pretty good. This is the first time we actually saw her crawl. Not bad for a first time. Here are the ingredients to an early crawler...

1.) Give your baby an objective...

2.) Have a cute baby...

3.) Turn on the video camera and watch her/him go ...



4.) Blog it!

Its as easy as that!

Super Saturdays!!

Today was a pretty fun day. We went to Pacifica so Tyson could surf. We stayed for a couple of hours, and then we came home to watch Berkleigh continue her great crawling skills. Today.... a great day! (Make sure you look at the post about Tyson's mohawk if you haven't already seen it. It is pretty awesome.)
Tys wishing the twins were old enough to come along!

Playin on the beach.
Already complaining he can't be surfin' with dad.
Wondering if the water is too cold.
Yep too cold! ( Can you see Tyson's mohawk!)
Handsome...or what?

Tyson's Mohawk... not a Faux hawk

Tyson wanted his head shaved. I started messing around with it and created a little mohawk. The best part was that the clippers died before I could shave the rest off. We went to Target, bought new clippers, but had to go straight to a birthday party. He kept his hat on the WHOLE time. Stinker! I was able to snap a few pictures so everyone else can see the joy I felt when looking at this beautiful masterpiece. Enjoy!

Chillin at home while...

Mom's back gets better. So I really hurt my back a couple of days ago. Not really the best thing to hurt when you have twins. We have had some very chill days at home, and I can't complain the babies have been fantastic!
Baby Einstein and the bumbo chair... who needs parents?
Do you like our 1970s wood wall?
Where did Merrick get the bubble gum?

Happy Birthday Chris!!

Yesterday was my brother's birthday. He is such a good brother to me. We used to fight when we were younger, but we don't anymore, and I am so proud to call him my brother. He is super smart, works hard, is a great uncle, and married a wonderful person. The only thing I would change is that he likes PCs and can't stand Macs. What? Happy Birthday Chris. I love you!
