19 months old!

I have totally been blessed with these precious babies!

They turned 19 months old today!

They are such happy, smart, and healthy babies.

You would never know that they were born premature.

They learn something new each day and it

always amazes me!

Their vocabulary is really growing.

Some of the words that they say often are

Mama, Daddy, Nana, Papa, Grandmother, Paw Paw,

Daisy, Max, Belle, ball, juice, book,

uh-oh, yes, uh-uh (no), duck, bird, fish, flower,

bra-bra (zebra), roo-roo (kangaroo), panda, monkey, bug,

bear, dog, bubble, shoes, bye bye, girl, boy, hi, baby, more and thank you.

They also say many animal sounds including

lion, sheep, snake, duck, dog, monkey, rooster

and can show using their arms how a bird flies and

how a gator goes chomp chomp.

They can also gallop like a horse.

And of course can point to their eyes, nose, mouth, hair,

ears, belly button and toes!

They understand almost everything we say to them

and can follow directions well.

People always ask me if they are alike and the truth is, they couldn't be more different than one another.

They have very different personalities

and are each special in their own way!

Brody has the best laugh I have ever heard! He is strong willed. He knows exactly what he wants, and wants to do everything by himself. He can throw some pretty funny fits at times. He is an extremely picky eater and noodles are a no no with Brody. He wants me to kiss his bo-bo's over and over. He studies things and wants to know how everything works. He has a very sweet singing voice and can sing "Row row row your boat". Brody likes everything to be in its place always. He is constantly putting things back where they go or letting me know that something isn't just right.

He is such a joy!

Caden is a sweetheart. He is so tender hearted and sensitive. He will give a kiss anytime you want it and also likes to kiss his brother and sister. He rocks himself to sleep. He is super smart and learns very fast. He minds very well. He knows all animals including ones like pelican & panda. He loves doing the animal sounds. Caden is a great help when it comes time to clean up. He enjoys waving and smiling at people when we are out. He is a sweet, sweet baby.

Carrigan is absolutely beautiful! She is a prissy little girl!

She comes in a very tiny package but is oh so fiesty. She is our daredevil. She loves the thrill of doing something dangerous. She gives the sweetest kisses and smacks when she gives a kiss. This girl will eat anything you put in front of her and she eats alot! She makes the funniest faces and has the sweetest voice! She is dramatic at times. Carrigan is so gentle with animals and has a very sweet nature. She is an angel!

These babies are my life. They give me such joy

and I am sooooo proud to be their Mommy.

God truly blessed me and Branson!
