11 months on December 11

 I cannot believe these two boys are 11 months already.  Time has flown by this year.  I was told by other mothers of twins that the first year is a blur and it really is.  I am sad that they are growing up so fast.  They are so much fun and so full of energy and getting so big.

 Oh Christmas Tree...Our Christmas tree looks like Dr. Seuss threw up on it!  It is only decorated the top 2/3 of the tree but has the same amount of ornaments on it as if the whole tree was decorated.  This is not my year for a pretty tree or a pretty decorated house!

 Good Morning Boys!

his crinkled up nose

Happy Happy 11 Months!!!

*Both boys now crawling everywhere, no more worm crawl for Chandler

*Chayce is our "Houdini" he can escape from anywhere he finds it a challenge to get through the many blockades I set up around the house.  We are always "chasing" him!  He has already had two tumbles down our stairs, thank goodness we got our gate fixed because he is determined to break through all barriers.

*Chandler has turned into the cuddly one.  He is more of a mama's boy. (I LOVE IT)

*They are always hungry!  They both cry and are sad when the food runs out. (can you imagine my food bill with these boys and their four older brothers) They are enjoying more of the family meals and not just baby food. 

*They both pull themselves up to the couch and walk along the front of it.

* Chayce has fallen flat on his face a couple of times because he thinks he can walk. (oh the stinker!!!)

*Sleep through the night, about 10 hours at a time.

*Hair is getting darker and curlier.

*Chayce has discovered his voice or should I say his scream.  He squeals at the top of his lungs and thinks it's so funny.  Chandler likes to chatter and say mama over and over.

*Starting to really bug their big brother Nicholas (only 1 year older than the twins).  They love to try to play with him but he sees it as them just taking his cars away from him.  Good thing he is so sweet and so patient.

Life is just getting a bit more challenging.  They are very busy boys with lots of energy.  I no longer get ANYTHING done, I have to be with them at all times or they get themselves into trouble. They are so much fun and so dang cute you can't help but smile at them no matter what they are doing.
