So Smart!

Here is Natalie enjoying the ExerSaucer. And she is SO smart. She is making it play music and talk to her by pressing buttons and just watch her reach out and grab that duck right after it says "I see one duck!!"

Spin It!

I have not posted any videos in awhile primarily due to computer problems. Now that we have a brand new computer, I can finally get some videos posted. As noted in the blog below, Natalie and Amanda love the ExerSaucer. Here is Amanda demonstrating!

Helping Out with the Chores

I can't wait until they can REALLY help....but for now, Natalie and Amanda had fun hanging out inside the laundry basket with the clean clothes! Here's Natalie waving "hello" to the camera:





Here she is again smiling at daddy.....

And here is Amanda; she thought the laundry basket was great fun!

Gettin' Some Exercise

Natalie and Amanda are now big enough to play in their ExerSaucers and they just LOVE them. We love them too because they keep them occupied for long periods of time, allowing us to scurry around and try to get a few things done. You can tell Amanda loves it....just look at that smile!



Natalie loves it too....seriously! ;)

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all of the wonderful mothers out there and, in particular, to Grandma Tholstrup and Grandma Totten. Natalie and Amanda send hugs and kisses! (And, yes, we did trim Natalie's nails after she did all that damage to her face, so no need to worry ;))

Discovering Each Other - Part II

Natalie and Amanda are more and more intrigued by each other these days. This morning, we were having tummy time and they had a ball studying and talking to each other. And, after awhile Amanda reached over and grabbed Natalie's hand. Too cute!

Four Months Old

Natalie and Amanda were 4 months old last weekend. They are turning into such big girls so fast!! We had a four-month doctor appointment this week and Natalie weighed in at 13 lbs 14 oz. (50th percentile for her age) and Amanda was 11 lbs 8 oz. (8th percentile). Both girls are smiling and laughing a lot and they both are now purposefully reaching for objects in front of them. Amanda has rolled over once. Natalie does not seem too interested in doing so as she prefers to stand (with assistance of course). Mom returned to work this week and the girls are adjusting well to their nanny, Sarah. Here are the cuties on their 4-month birthday.
