14 Months!

I just get a kick out of these guys. The things they do like they are big people, not babies . . . giving hugs, watering plants, drinking from a hose- little things . . . but it's amazing. I try to do something new with them everyday and it's like Disneyland on a daily basis cause they just soak it up and love new things and people.

We had dinner at Gigi and Popi's and they got their first Corn on the Cob. It was hysterical- I couldn't believe they liked it!

They are obsessed with hiding and crawling under and behind things . . . I have found them laying flat under coffee tables, chairs you name it. We build forts on a daily basis. This is not a very good picture but they like to get under the same chair and hangout. Classic.

Who ever thought Maizy could be such a saint. They absolutely ADORE her. They sit on her like a horse, tug at her, she even got BIT yesterday (we won't talk about the terrible biting phase we are getting over) and she just takes it.

But the most fun of all (besides the berry fields and meeting the newest pup in the family, Joan's dog Jack, but I am still waiting on pics of those from Gigi- hint hint Gigi) has been the Beaverton Fountain. The first time was with Popi and they were hesitant cause the water goes up 10 feet high if not taller. They watched and ran on the grass and just stepped around it wishing they were like the big kids.

The second time we were with Travis and Linda and they decided to be a big kid. It was amazing. They just got pounded by the water and loved it. They ran in circles around the inside having a blast.

Then they went for it!

People always ask if they do anything differently. Not much. They dance differently (Tyler side to side clapping and Carter up and down and twirling) and at the fountain Tyler is into finding any ball and tackling the water first and Carter walks up to people, taps them and looks up into their eyes and gives a look like "do I know you?" I think he walked up to everyone there. (Below)
