I didn't do it mom!!

Look how guilty this kid looks!! Cameron's new trick is emptying out the toy basket in the play area. FUN for me!

Our Easter Bunny Adventure

Well lets just say Santa is way cooler than the Easter bunny for these boys apparently! They cried as soon as we sat them down on the bunny's lap. They worked through it though and we managed to get a pic of them not crying. Well Cam is fighting the cry and Carter is just, well, just there! hahah!! Those little personalities keep growing and shining through with each day!

Our first Easter Egg Hunt....sorta!!

The twins group that I am involved with had their annual Spring party today and the boys got to enjoy their first Easter egg hunt, if that's what you call it!! The babies just sat and played with the eggs but it was still really cute! The pictures are too funny. The boys weren't too sure what to think of it all. I think they had a good time though but you can see towards the end that it was starting to wear on them!

Here are just a few pics. you can see the rest on the shutterfly share site. (link on the right column)

My worst moment of motherhood so far:(

I know there will be many more harrowing times as a mother. Times where your heart breaks into little tiny pieces when your baby is hurt or sick but yesterday was one of the worst moments for me so far.

We took Cameron in for his EEG test at the Neurologist. This was to rule out the seizure question, and to make sure there wasn't something else going on to trigger his little random head movements. The poor guy had to be sedated a little, not put under, just a little sleep drug (step above Benadryl apparently). I think it made him so sleepy that it just pissed him off. So we get into the test room and he is already screaming as the tech is placing 24 electrodes on his tiny little noggin and I am having to hold him down. He was so terrified. When she finally got them all on she had to wrap his head with gauze which made him look a baby Frankenstein to be quite honest. Once the testing started, she flashed this really bright light a bunch of times and that really upset him. How would you feel in a pitch black room with this huge fluorescent light flashing in your eyes? That's when I lost it. It all became too much for me and I literally cried for 30 minutes! He finally fell asleep and i still layed there with him with tears running down my face. My poor little baby was so upset and there was nothing I could do for him.

The good news is that we did not hear from them yesterday. The tech told us if the doc saw something we would know that very moment. So no news is good news in our case.

What A Week!

Oh I don't even know where to start! Daryl has been out of town this week so my friend Jen Howes came in from Atlanta to help me out with the boys. I would not have survived this week without her! We were so busy and did so much so this may end up being the longest post I have ever made! ahha!!

First I have to say Happy 1st Birthday to Kendal! We went to her birthday party last Saturday and it was a great time! Kendal's mom went above and beyond to make her party special and we were so glad to be a part of it!

Sunday I dropped Daryl off at the airport and picked up Jen at the same time! Very convenient for me:) Then Jen, the boys and myself headed out to the Winter Park art festival! It was a beautiful day and we had a great time. We sat outside and ate lunch at the Briarpatch and the boys did pretty well.

Then on Tuesday we headed over to Melbourne Beach to see our great friend Shelley who lives over that way. Shelley, Jen and I were all in Delta Flight Attendant training together and have managed to stay very close over the years. It was to boys first time at the beach and it was priceless! Cameron loved the sand and loved crawling around and playing in it. Carter...not so much! Cried anytime you would put him down. It was not the most ideal conditions at the beach that day. They had 30 mile per hour winds and a lot of man of war had washed up on the beach. The seas were really rough, although not that I would get in the water anyways! It was great for us ladies who just wanted to relax on the beach but not for babies who fell asleep within 20minutes of being there. It was too windy to put them down on the blankets, they would get covered in sand! OYEVEY!
I did manage to get some amazing pictures all of which I have to still convert to smaller files and do some editing to. I don't have it in me tonight to do that but hopefully by this weekend I will have a chance:) I also did a mini photo shoot with Shelley and her youngest on the beach! Got to keep practicing!

The rest of the week we ran errands, shopped, ate great food and just hung out. I am literally pooped! I don't think I have slept more than 5 hours each night so needless to say, Daryl is scheduled to arrive home around 10pm tonight and he is without a doubt....on FULL TIME DADDY DUTY for the entire weekend!!!!!

OH and to make this post even longer...the boys are 11 months! In less than 4 weeks they will be ONE! AAAGHGHH!! They continue to amaze me everyday! Cameron's newest thing is playing in the mirror! He cracks himself up. I need to get it on video one of these days. Carter has become a bit of a wimp...haha! Very clingy to me and not trusting of new people or situations! Apparently Daryl was exactly the same way when he was a baby! FIGURES!!!

Here is a sneak peek of the pics from the beach....In my opinion the pic of Cam is freaking awesome!!

Finally moving to the real Bathtub!

So what right? Well for us it is a big deal because I have tried for a very long time to get the boys in our bathtub for bath time but every time was a disaster. Screaming, kicking, flailing, you name it they did it. It was quite traumatic, at least for me. So I have been bathing them in the giant ducky tub on the kitchen counter but they are getting too big for that. I'm sure for a baby our bathtub is scary...it's big and deep with jets and all...that would scare me if I was only 30 inches long!! Cameron is definitely handling it better than Carter. You get a little whimper from Cam but it passes quickly! He seems to actually like splashing around with the water. Now Carter is another story. He hates it and makes sure that you know he hates it with the loudest screaming known to man!! Hope he gets over it quickly before I have permanent hearing damage:<
