I probably won’t have time to update tomorrow morning, so I’ll put something up tonight. Lucky you guys!
The weekend was pretty full because Kimberly got married. WOOHOO!
Friday night, Eric took pictures for them at the rehearsal, so I hung out with my parents who were watching Jason for Karen who was also at the rehearsal. Eric skipped the rehearsal dinner and came home in time to put babies to bed. Then Michelle and her family joined us for the night.
Saturday morning, Michelle had to be at the hair place at 9:00 am, but Chris and the girls hung out at our house for a while. They seemed to have fun playing to different toys. And we watched Finding Nemo. And every so often, one of Michelle’s twins would come into the kitchen and look at me, wait for me to greet her, and then smile at me and leave. I’m not sure if it was one who did it multiple times or if both were doing it. But it was kind of funny.
Anyway, the afternoon and evening was spent at Kimberly’s lovely wedding. And it really was lovely. My sister sang during the service. The couple was too cute. The cake was yummy. I got to take fun pictures for them (Eric was the unofficial reception photographer…I helped!). And I got to talk to family and friends I don’t often get to see.
It’s amazing how tired someone else’s wedding can make me!
Sunday was spent relaxing between church services. Nothing too exciting to report.
But speaking of exciting reports, the babies are doing such fun things these days.
- Alex has taken to sticking his lower lip out in a little pout. But he’s not really pouting. It’s just a pose.
- They love grilled cheese. Erin will suck the cheese out from the bread slices sometimes.
- Erin now has 3 teeth on the top.
- I wish Alex would get some teeth on top. Then maybe we could all go back to sleeping all night again.
- I took the twins out to “play” in the leaves on the ground today. I got some pictures. I’ll post them later.
- At the wedding, my dad entertained the twins by pushing them around in their side-by-side stroller. Alex rode the entire time, leaning back like he was too cool. Erin sat up at the front and bounced around excitedly. And the faster my dad went, the more bouncy she got.
- Both babies are pushing off things to stand on their own. Alex is quite good at it now.
Okay, I need to stop now, I think, and go to bed. I will post pictures soon. Happy Monday (what’s left of it)!
Sounds like a wonderful, happy weekend. Hooray! It’s great to hear what Alex and Erin are up to now. Isn’t this a fun age (minus the teething!)?? Love their different reactions to being pushed around in the stroller at the wedding – so funny how the personalities start to really emerge now!
i agree with faithchick. this post is just happy.
fun to read what the babies are up to these days. ellee also enjoys taking her grilled cheese apart and eating the cheese off the bread. silly kiddos.
you know, i was supposed to attend kim’s wedding, but i had to cancel my trip because of the lay off / tight finances…. i was so bummed that i didn’t have a chance to meet you you person! hopefully some day!!
oh my goodness…this post is so happy! I’m glad to hear details about kim’s wedding. i love that you don’t know if it was one twin smiling at your or two. that’s hilarious. And erin sucking out the cheese–that made me laugh. How cute! And, finally, i love that the babies rode in the stroller in completely different styles. C is really, really bouncy, too. I imagine she and erin would get along really well. Oh, and we went out into the leaves today, too–it was C’s first time. she LOVED it.
