this week

Well, we have been quite active again, and Mommy has forgotten the camera quite a lot again! We did enjoy the Christmas parade Saturday and the Live Nativity at church tonight! Here's a couple of fun times we had this past week! I still have not figured how to rotate pictures on here to make them straight up, but here's Carson and then Cade with the cute bibs Papa and Nana recently gave them for more interesting Daddy time at the mall! As if he needs help getting attention!

No silly heads - that is not the way you play with the exersaucer!

Here's one of Mommy's Christmas presents!!!!! Thanks Daddy! Mommy loves the pictures of the boys now framed in the dining room! It will be perfect once we have the year old montage made and hung, too!
Merry Christmas, everybody!

Ten Months Old!

Our boys are getting so big!
And so handsome!
Sometimes they still need extra attention!
Cade and Carson enjoyed helping Daddy and Mommy start to decorate!
They are all over the place now: to this side, to that side, going up, going down - wherever they can go!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Carson and Cade are having fun playing with Nana after a wonderful Thanksgiving meal at Grandpa and Grandma's house (so sad Mommy forgot the camera).

The boys are so entertained by their Papa!
Papa and Nana gave Cade and Carson some early Christmas presents!
We tried to get a posed picture with the Baby's 1st Thanksgiving bibs!
The twins were a little too excited for that!
One minute Cade would sit almost still . . .

. . . and the next minute Carson would sit almost still!

Mommy was glad to get home from work Friday! And Daddy had a good duck hunt - getting four Green Wing Teal Ducks which we ate for dinner Friday night!

Nana and Papa were good babysitters!

And today when Cade and Carson woke up from their morning naps - they missed Papa and Nana!

Carson is ready to cheer on the Gamecocks to beat Clemson today!

Cade is cheering for Carolina, too!

Nine and a Half Months!

The weather dipped down to freezing a couple of times this week, so the boys have gotten to wear a lot of the warm clothing that Nana and Papa gave them!
Here they are ready to leave for Day Care! This is the first day they wore mittens - they loved them!
Carson enjoyed playing that afternoon!
Of course, Cade did, too!
They have been standing up a lot now! They take steps when we hold their hands!

These overalls are very warm! Thanks Papa and Nana!

Cade and Carson love to feed themselves now! They are very good with the bottles and sippie cups, but not with silverware, yet!

We all missed Daddy while he was away for a work trip this week!

Carson enjoys playing after his Sunday afternoon nap!
Cade pretends to be a monkey with Daddy!
They were both Indians in the Thanksgiving performance at church this morning!

Week at a Glance

We've had lots of fun this past week! Carson is still the only one with a tooth, although they're both pretty upset by the whole teething thing at times. They love to play in their pajamas before bedtime!

Cade was an early riser Monday morning after Daylight Saving Time ended, so breakfast was cut short by a nap!
The twins have on their glow in the dark pajamas, so I took this picture in the dark before going to bed. I think the flash coming on in the dark living room is what made them squint so funny!
Carson thought it would be much more fun to play under the exersaucer the next morning!
Carson and Cade always love to play when they wake up - here they are entertaining themselves while waiting for breakfast.
And here they are Saturday morning exploring the breakfast nook!

Cade and Carson had their first trip to the zoo on Sunday!

The boys enjoyed watching all the penguins swim and jump!

The penguins enjoyed watching the twins, too!

Both babies took a nap while strolling around the zoo!

When we got home, Cade and Carson were glad to be back in their rocking chair!
