Toddlers Vs. Babies
You know back when our babies were still "babies" we were saying how much "easier it would get if we were just at the "next stage."
1. Just laying still and stearing at their mobiles---Oh I wish they would learn to roll over!
Completed a milestone, Yes. Now they are rolling, cant lay them just anywhere.
2. Just laying on their bellies---Oh I wish my babies were sitting up so they could play with their toys better!
Completed a milestone, Yes. Now this milestone I think was a good one! They couldnt move but they were content playing with their toys!
3. Oh I am ready for them to learn to pull up!
Completed a milestone, Yes. BUt now they can reach everything!!!!!!!!!!!! Baby proof!!! Baby Proof Everything!
4. Oh I am ready for them to pick up their own food, and stop feeding them baby food on a spoon.
Completed a milestone, Yes! But now I CLEAN up even more bc half their food ends up on the floor! So this involoves sweeping after every meal, and Moping if they ate something Messy!
5. Oh I am ready for them to crawl!
Completed a milestone, Yes. But crawl, o my, times two, o dear, this was crazy! Baby gates, 4 of them! Top and bottom of stairs and going into the kitchen! Baby gates baby gates!!!
6. Oh I am ready for them to WALK, or should I just skip walking and say running!
THIS IS A BIG MILESTONE, AND SINCE MY MONSTERS starting taking steps at 8 months, they are now running away from me! And they think its funny!
So,,,,stages got harder, and stages got easier, in different ways as they get older! Toddlers are FUN, but def. more work!!!! Love my babies, Slow dowwwwwwwwwwwn!

'Be who you are and say what you feel, ... There is no one alive who is Youer than You."
Dr. Seuss could not have said it better!!!! The birthday party was a HUGE hit! I pulled it off!! I decorated and made everything accept for the cake (which was wonderful I do have to say)! If anyone needs help plannning a Dr Seuss, Thing 1 Thing 2 party, please you may borrow my decorations! They are taking up my garage right now, ha! Lets see where to start!
I think its better to show you in pictures! I have over 300 of the party, so I will just choose a few! Enjoy! And thanks to everyone who came and celebrated the best year of my life with my and my baby girls!
Everything was perfect! I was not ready for it to end! As with anything, "time flies when you are having fun!"

My Sweet Monsters turned 1!
Well its official as of 6:08 and 6:09 today my sweet baby girls turned one years old!!! Can I believe it? NO! It has gone by so fast! We survived twinfants! I hit my goal of breastfeeding my baby girls for one whole year!!! Wow, I do have to say besides graduating college, that is one of the most major accomlishments I have ever achieved my entire life, and I am officially saying I am SUPER proud, to announce that I gave my babies the best of the best BREASTMILK their first entire year of life!
They have developed into their own sweet personalitys! Although one week, one of them will do something or act a certain way and the next week they will switch! They are starting to really "play" with each other, or I should say pulling each others hair, knocking each other down, and stealing each others toys! But I think this is there way of "learning to play" with each other! Hey its true love when you pull someones hair and they pull yours back, right?
I think I can now officially say, I have walkers!!! WAHOO!(or should I say OH NO) For their one year check up they both walked like big girls from the waiting room, all the way into the room where they were going to see the doctor!!! BIG GIRLS!!! SO BIG! They get harder and easier as they hit different stages! My arms get a break ? Yes, but now my legs get a workout! I get to chase them everywhere! The girls STATS, were Lillianah 21 pounds even and Zohan 19.8 lbs, both their head is the same size and it is in the 90 % ! Ha! Just like their momma, I had a big head when I was younger, and as my dad used to tell me, my body had to grow to catch up with my head!
Their Birthday party was a HUGE success!! All the prep. and hard work paid off! I think I was doing crafts for a month! I hand made everything with help from erinator, g-ma jo and Heather! We had the party at my moms house and it was of course THING 1 THING 2 from Dr Seuss! But I will have to put a blog post up specfically about the party!
I would have never thought when the girls were two months old that it would fly by this fast!! I do have to say, all the pain that I went through to have them, all the pain that I experienced afterwards, all the crying sessions, frustrations of trying to get twinfants to latch on at the same time, sleep deprevation, not eating hot meals, not going out to hang out with my friends just because, any many more things, I would give up all that and more over and over and over again for my sweet babies! I dont remember much after the c-section, but I do remember looking into my sweet baby girls eyes for the first time and falling in love instantly! The love you experience for your own child is undescribable, its pure and real and nothing like it in the world.
I love you to the moon and back again and I am looking forward to the toddler stage, its bitter sweet!
