Woops!

I always get the words bumbo and boppy mixed up...see the post with the pictures! He he! :) Their bouncers are the Boppy brand and I usually get them mixed up...

Oh Dear

My darling husband is super stressed with the election junk coming up...I totally agree with him and although I do not agree with everything John McCain does or thinks, I think he is the better candidate and I do like Sarah Palin a lot. So Eric is in the living room right now watching the vice-presidential debate and the tension in the room is crazy every time Biden opens his mouth. I personally think that Barack Obama is awful and pray that he does not win this election, but I fear that he might.

Eric has now decided to start a blog of his own for political reform purposes...you are super excited now, huh Dad??? :) Anyways, Eric has been politely debating his political science professor this semester and has won the man's respect. His professor said that not only is he impressed with Eric's ability to voice his opinions in class, but also his ability to state facts to back up his comments. Apparently the professor will be bringing Eric a Diet Coke on Monday to thank him for his participation.

He made a comment in class the other day that the professor did not think was true and Eric said that he would look it up and write a short "thing" on the facts that made what he said true...well as of tonight, Eric has a 10 page paper written pointing out the truth of what he said in class. I told him that this paper should go on his blog when he gets it up and running...I will let you all know the address for that when we set it up.

Sorry to talk politics...not my favorite subject, but obviously a VERY important topic these days!! Make sure you vote!!!

I am now off to put 2 little babies to bed. Nightey night all!

Cute Pictures!

I just love taking pictures of the girls and they are SO GORGEOUS! I don't have much time today to write an entry, but I can sure download some pictures!! Here they are...

This first picture is little Lexi lifting her head like a pro and showing off those baby blues!

Next we have Lilly with her bear blanket and below her is Lexi with hers...

This is Lexi all dressed up in one of her outfits off of craigslist. It also has a matching jacket with Winnie the Pooh on it.

Lilly and Lexi enjoying their boppy! (Lilly is first and then Lexi)

The girls on tummy time! They love their new Baby Einstein Octopus.

This one is funny...I tried this new duckie romper on Lilly and then we went into the living room to show daddy and she was suddenly really upset at this thing on her head! She has no idea how cute she was! :)

Little Bugs & More

The girls are now getting more and more interested in their toys. Right now, their favorite thing is the little bug on the top of their bouncers. They sit and talk to it. Then after a while, they will slap it around or fuss at it. They will frown at it and then kind of yell at it with a scowl of disappointment on their faces. And when one is being super loud, the other baby will get quiet and watch her sister yell at the bug. I finally got some of their antics on video this morning!

Eric and I are working on getting some of the awesome video footage we have taken onto the computer soon. We now have Lexi's first "out loud" laugh on video and lots of other little funny moments. One of my favorites was when the girls were 3 weeks old and Eric and I were warming up their bottles in the kitchen but they were so hungry and it was the first time that they really screamed and cried loudly. They were both crying soooo loud and it is great footage of just how tiny they were.

Here are a couple of pictures of the girls having fun in their bouncers...

This little one is Lexi looking curiously at her bug!

Lilly likes looking at herself in the mirror too!

Here are some more photos of them noticing new things and exploring their world....

We may end up with 2 marine biologists by the way the girls watch the fish on their swing! Daddy will definitely be taking his girls fishing!

Lilly was also checking out her sheets before she rolled herself over for the first time!! She also does the leg motions to try and crawl. She just doesn't go anywhere yet! :)
