FIRST BOAT RIDE!!!!

I grew up on a boat so I was so excited to take the kids on the boat! They had so much fun, and weren't scared at all!! Kilah actually didn't want me to touch her, so i would have to be sneaky and slip my hand in her life jacket without her knowing! She becoming quite stubborn in her lovely age of 2!!! Brodie thought it was awesome he loves boats and airplanes... and to make the boat ride even cooler for Brodie while we were on the boat a airplane flew really low so he could see it really good! He loved it! I love a good boat ride the wind in your hair and all of the beautiful houses to look at, i was so pleased that the twins enjoyed it as much as I do! Here are some pictures from the boat ride.

Daddy and Brodie loving the boat!
Me getting a little lovin from my girl on the boat!

This picture cracked my up! So I had to post it! Blake and I are always told how much Kilah looks like me and Brodie looks like Blake... this picture proves that for sure! They even have the same look on there faces!
I love my boys!!!

Captain Brodie ready to set sail!!!


The look on his face here is so Brodie! Shortly after this picture he got in my dads lap to help him drive! Brodie thought it was awesome! But Brodie being the boy he is he immediately found the throttle and pushed it all the was down and about threw us all out of the boat! My silly silly wild little man!



Kilah and her new fancy life jacket Pops bought her!

I just love this picture of Blake! I am pretty sure it was right after Brodie about threw us out of the boat! Blake is such a cutie!

I am sure Kilah is telling me "no touchy me mommy!"

so sweet!

We stopped for a bite to eat and Brodie was giving me some good sugars!

Kilah and Pops!

she loved the piggie back ride!

The place where we stopped to eat had a lot of ducks and the twins loved feeding the ducks and hanging out with there Pops!

Kilah went for a quick dip with me and loved it! Brodie was just as happy sitting on the back of the boat with his feet in the water...smart boy!

Our boat trip was so fun and ever since we went as soon as we get in the car Kilah wants to know if we are going to "Pops house for boat ride?"

And Brodie since then thinks if he is on a boat he WILL see another airplane!!!

My babies are a such a great age! We are having so much fun!

It just gets better every day!

THE BIG 2ND BIRTHDAY PARTY!!!

I am not really sure how these pics made it on the top of the post & i am not really sure how to delete them. This is Kilah and Brodie on June 9th playing out side and loving there birthday..... now on with the blog.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KILAH AND BRODIE!!!

June 9Th....

I JUST CANNOT BELIEVE MY BABIES ARE 2!!!!!

I see the light at the end of the behind bloggers tunnel!

Only 1 month past the party I am posting about it! I am getting better!

As most of you know the twins LOVE Mickey and Minnie Mouse and the have since back in the day when they were in exersaucers! Anyway this year they had a Mickey and Minnie party at the "splash pad" at Carl Cowan park! The twins love water and love to run so i thought it would be perfect! It was!!!! These 2 years have FLOWN by way to fast! I look at them and cant believe how far the have come from being my 2 little 3lb babies to now being my little 2 year olds! They are so fun but so challenging at the same time! There are days i want my little 6 week old babies who never sleep back...you know before they fought, bit each other ALL THE TIME, threw huge fits in public and said "no" all the time! But then there are days i look at them and just cant believe my eyes... those 2 are my babies and they are learning so much and trying new things everyday and i am the lucky momma that gets to share all of that with them... and the thoughts of bad things gos far far far away! I wouldn't change a thing about these 2 cuties they are my perfect little twinnies!

here is our birthday cake! Isn't it awesome! thanks Jennifer it rocked!!!

I was so pleased with our fun little party! The twins skipped there first nap EVER..i was scared but they were having so much fun they played right thru all the melt downs i thought they would have! They came home played with a few of there new toys and went to bed at 6:45.. and mommy was also asleep on the couch at 8:45! What can i say parties wear us out!

My babies are such a blessing and thank god for there health and safety everyday!

THE BEACH!!!!

Lots of pics on this post... I decided to no do a slideshow for this one....change it up a bit!

We went to the Hilton Head in May with my mom (Cece), my sisters and all the cousins!!!! And the worlds best babysitter Kurt, Jessica's nephew...we love Kurt!!!! There were 6 kids and 5 adults!!!!! We had a BLAST! The kids love there aunts, uncle and cousins so much they were in heaven getting to hang out with the cool kids for a whole week! Kilah and Anna were so sweet, they enjoyed each other so much! Brodie was having a blast all day everyday hanging out with the big boys, but i am not sure everyone he was around was having near as much fun as he was.... he screamed the whole WEEK!!! He would scream with excitement and anger....it really didn't matter what or why... he just screamed!!!! Gotta love my little man! The twins loved the beach, Kilah especially, she had no fear of it at all, she went running straight to it as soon as we got there and the only thing that stopped her was she would fall down face first in the ocean! Brodie enjoyed it too, but was a little more cautious of the water, he liked the sand, and caring around his shovel and bucket! I enjoyed so much watching Kilah and Brodie exploring new things and loving them! I love watching the world all over again with them!

As you all know i have the best nephews and nieces in the world and have always been very involved in there life's, so getting to hang with 3 of my very favorite kids in the world was awesome! All the cousins love each other so much and drive each other crazy at the same time! So fun to watch!!!

THANK YOU CECE!!!!!!

Thank you Ce-Ce for loving the beach so much you let us go with you every year and hang out with you! You are the coolest mom we know!!!
my little future model Kilah!
