10 Months Old


Time is flying by lately! The boys are getting so big! Always on the move, always eating, always making mommy chase after them...ugh!!
They have both been pulling themselves up on EVERYTHING in the house and standing on thier own. Walking is still a few months off I think...I HOPE!! haha!

Splish Splash we were taking a bath!

Cameron loves taking a bath in his big ducky tub and tonight was the funniest ever! He started cracking up when he was splashing in the water but of course I caught the tail end of it with the camera. Still cute though!
And I had a HUGE mess of water to clean up afterwards but it was all worth it:)

Our first GOMOTT playdate




So I am sure you are asking yourself what the heck GOMOTT is...well it's the Greater Orlando Mother of Twins and Triplets group! Today they had a play date for the kindergarten class of 2013-2014 and yes, that's us! That seems so far away but the boys will be going to school in 2013- geese!!

The play date was a little far away but I am so glad I finally went to one! The only problem was the boys...they were miserable the whole time. One major problem was that the play date started at 10am and that's right in the middle of our morning nap. I had thought that they slept in the car on the way over there but upon arrival it was apparent that was not the case! They fussed and whined the entire time that we were there! I lasted for about an hour and a half and threw in the towel. It was a good turnout with lots of babies crawling around! I am looking forward to another one next week...I just hope the boys will have more fun at the next one! Maybe they didn't like the cold weather like thier mommy. Here are a few pics from the morning...check out both of the boys faces...totally tells how the day went for us!!
Then we get home and poof...my boys are back and happy as you can see!

Swing adventures

After we had lunch to celebrate my Dad's bday with the family we headed over to Lake Eola park with Uncle Alan, Aunt April and our cousin Hayden. The boys got to play in swings for the first time...finally! I don't know what took me so long to take them to a playground. Maybe it's the fact that they can't walk and it never donned on me that they could get into the baby swing..I don't know! At any rate it was a lot of fun and they absolutely LOVED being in the swings! I see a swing set in our backyard in the very near future! If you want to see more pictures of the day go to our shutterfly site... www.cameronandcarter21.shutterfly.com

LIttle Buddies

It has been so funny watching the boys play together lately. They crack each other up all the time! But it's inevitable that as soon as I hit record on the video they stop! I caught a little of it this time! Be sure to watch Cameron's facial expressions! Especially at the very end of the video..hillarious face! That is one expressive kid already! Wonder where he gets that from:)

9 Month Stats and progress


The boys had their 9mth check up last Friday. Once again my mom went with me to help with the post-shot meltdowns! Thanks mom!

They are growing very nicely..almost catching up with a full term 9mth baby. Carter weighed in at 20lbs 10oz and 29.5 inches both of which are in the 75th percentile. Cameron came in at 19lbs 7oz and 28.5 inches long also in the 50-75th percentile range. The doctor was really pleased with how well they are growing and developing. I felt like such a proud mama! haha!!

Cameron has finally joined in on the full on crawling this week. Carter is all over the darn place! I really need one of those big play gate things! And just last night Carter was trying to pull himself up on the couch which is not something I have noticed before. Then this morning he found his toy basket and got up on the knees and proceeded to pull out about 5 toys in addition to the ones that I had already gotten out. I foresee my stress level rising in the next few months!

Other than that not much else to report. I did have my first Mary Kay party and it was a huge success! Big thanks to everyone who attended:)

So now we are onto the big birthday countdown! T minus 3 months and counting until the wonder twins turn one! Holy cow!!!!

We have a crawler and another tooth!

Cameron finally got his first tooth in! I have to say.. I hope this is how teething will go for the rest of the teeth because you would not have known that they were "teething" so to speak! I guess they were a little fussier than normal but nothing too horrible!

And Carter is officially crawling. It's full on crawling which means my life just got a little more hectic. Cameron is still doing the 2 step fall to the stomach thing but as usual he is almost there! I see potential for a lot of problems when these two get older with competition and Carter always doing everything first..uh-oh!

On a side note...I have started my Mary Kay business finally! We have gone back and forth with the idea of me working for a while now. Then a part time job opportunity a few weeks ago got me thinking that I could do it part time. Well when you are paying for 2 in childcare at once we are looking at aprox. $1600 a month people! And even part time with a friend of mine would have still set us back about $400 a month and if you are only working part time hours on part time pay that too is sort of a wash in the money department. Soooooooo I felt like the Mary Kay thing would allow me to be my own boss and work on my time not someone else's! Plus I have been using the products on and off now for about 10 years! So if anyone is interested in some awesome skin care and color check out my website or give me a call!
