December is a busy month!

Brother antics

I read somewhere (and can't remember where) that twins usually start interacting somewhere around five months, and don't really start playing "with" (vs playing alongside) one another until 18-24 months.  Well, these two are just too cute lately...really beginning to notice one another every once in awhile.  And, their balance is getting really good...in this video, Ben stands and balances himself for a few seconds:)

Happy Thanksgiving!

It ended up in the trash....   :(

I know it's a bit cheesy, but it was fun and we got some cute photos!

Jack is so pouty!

Don't you just love their cute little faces:)

They are my children...of course they can read at four months!!!  Just kidding:)

Sitting like little big boys!
