I'm a little tea pot... well tea cup !!







6 MONTHS !!!!


It still feels like they were born yesterday and we were making the trip back and forth to Beaumont to see them. Every time I think about how small they were when they were born it scares me. I know I held them but I see pictures and think oh how small they must have been. We will know for sure next week but I think Cash is almost 20 pounds and Paige is around 16. We get shots next week so they will tell us for sure but Casey weighed them at the house and that is what HE says they weigh so we will go with that. Dad is always right, right :)



We are eating two meals a day now. Usually a fruit for lunch and then squash or sweet potatoes or something YUMMY like that for dinner. We are both rolling over like maniacs. Paige isn't into it that much but boy does Cash like too. He will roll and roll and roll until he has made it across the living room then look at me like MOTHER CAN YOU HELP ME GET BACK. Paige would rather just lay there and watch him, she is thinking WHY WOULD I ROLL OVER THERE WHEN I WOULD JUST HAVE TO ROLL RIGHT BACK.... my kind of girl :)



They both should be sitting up before too long. They are trying to now but not quite there. No teeth yet but should be soon. We have drool for days and everything goes to the mouth.














Paige LOVES her feet !!!!!



Wait a sec MOM !!



HOLY MOLY !!!








On your mark .... get set..... GO !!!!

Well we broke a BIG RULE in some peoples book lately. I went and bought the old style walkers. I know there are so many HAZARDS about them. But we don't have any stairs in the house and believe it or not I don't usually ever leave them unattended :) They love them though. Neither of them can touch the floor yet so I have towels and such under them for now but they watch TV and eat in them. Forget the high chair this thing is just as easy. I cant wait until they are running through the house and never looking back in my old school walkers !!!








First time in the saddle.....

I haven't made a blog in weeks now. Its crazy around here. Paige and Cash both are teething and then they both had a coldthe past few weeks. Paige's cold turned into ear infection in BOTH ears so now we are on 10 days of antibiotics. But doing better until last night when Cash stayed up all night with his teeth. Everybody always says in the beginning it gets easier.... TELL ME WHEN THAT IS ????? LOL . I wouldn't change it for the world though. We thank GOD everyday for both of our blessings!!


Here is a few pictures of the twins hanging out in Aunt Tracy's saddle. I think there will be many more days in the saddle for these two!!





Look at how many hands at first we had to use to keep them sitting up......

Memorial Weekend!

We headed out to the lake house on Thursday and didn't make it back home till Sunday night. I was so worried that the babies would be HOT and Miserable but they were so good. We had a really good time. Casey and the guys had one to because they caught 140 lbs of fish!!!

Waiting to have a picture taken in the outfits mother bought them!

Mother's Day ~ Baby Dedication



What a wonderful day to have a baby dedication. Growing up sitting at church you always think ONE DAY I will be a mother and I can stand up and get a carnation or whatever gift the church gives to the mothers-grandmothers etc. Last year it was getting closer because I had just found out that I was preggo and then this year we had two perfect healthy children to take to church and I was proud to stand up with them.

It was somewhat sad because my dad always makes such a big deal about holidays. He thinks about what to give people for months and always gives the best THOUGHTFUL gifts. ( I didn't think this in high school because it was always something I NEEDED but not necessarily WANTED :) This year he was out of the country with Gideons and it was my first mothers day so he went and ordered my gift before he left so I would have it. Cristi from Pickles called and I went and picked up flowers that he had bought me. Mexican Sage I think . They are really pretty and he had heard me talking that I needed a plant to plant by the entrance.


Then on the way to church mother calls and tells me to look in her car before I come into church. I was like mother we are running late I will get it later and she was persistent that I needed to get it before church so I was thinking a new jacket or something for the babies. (SHE BUYS THEM MORE THAN ME ALL THE TIME:)... But instead I find a new bible. I was still using my Ashley Brasher bible and this new one says ASHLEY POWELL. Not only that it is a slim bible so I can carry it in my diaper bag !!! So I am crying before I ever get into church. She got a bible from dad when Brandon and I were small and she has used it all these years and that bible has been through thick and thin with her and I know this new one of mine will do the same!!!


SO here are some pictures from the Baby Dedication!! Thanks Kristin for taking such good pictures! Thanks Alison, Karen, DeeDee for coming to such a special time in our children's lives!
