Cabin Fever

Zach can stand up if you put him up there. He is so strong but he out weighs Aria by 4 lbs so I think he isn't able to pull himself up yet.
Aren't kids precious when they are sleeping. (or course they are when they are awake also, it's just quieter when they are asleep) Sam is on the go every waking moment. I'm always telling him I need some peace and quiet so he needs to take a nap. Now he tells me he needs some peace and quiet too.
Miss Aria is able to pull herself up on anything and is now starting to move around things once she gets up. The other day I was unloading the dishwasher and she was trying so hard to get her leg up high enough to get on top of the lid of the dishwasher. Thank goodness her legs are a little bit to short for that right now. It was so funny she was clear up on her tip toes. She also is climbing up our stairs. Yikes!!
My pictures of Sam this time are when he is asleep for some reason. But this time I went to wake him up because if he sleeps too long he will not go to bed a night very easily. Anyway this is how I found him. Often he will sleeps with Speedy (his teddy bear given to him by Grandma Porter) in his P.J.'s or shirt. Lately he has been asking for another brother and sister and then asks if I can grow one in my belly. Maybe this is the reason Speedy is often found under his shirt. Who knows....
Mr. Zach's will often have a toy in his mouth carrying it around as he moves on to the next thing. Then he'll shake his head back and forth making me laugh. He also likes to go into the bedrooms and open and close the doors. When he sometimes closes the door all the way shut he loves it when one of us gets on the other sides and puts our hand under the door. (we have old doors so there is plenty of room to stick our hands under it) He would laugh at that all day.
Here is Aria showing off her cute boots and dress. (ok, it's really mom showing it off) We think Aria is a daddy's girl. Of course, that doesn't hurt daddy's feelings one bit.

The two boys have been sick this last week but are doing much better now. Anyway that is the excuse I'm giving for taking so long to update our blog. At the end of February the kids and I went and stayed with my sister Shea for a couple of days. That was a lot of fun and Sam and his cousin London played so well together. Infact, it actually gives me a break cause he's off playing leaving me to hang with my sister. The twins loved exploring their new surroundings. It was a lot of fun. I'm excited for spring and summer so that we can get out of the house. Sam loves it outside and I'm sure the twins will too.

Your twins are getting big! Now that Jace crawls he is everywhere, I can't take my eyes off him. Sam is one of the cutest boys I've ever seen and yes I agree with you...more precious when they're sleeping. hehe
