On the move.....................

Just a week later, on Jan. 11th, 2010, Brinkley has taken off!!!!!!! She is into everything and anything. I will walk from one room to the other and sure enough, she is right behind me. I can't hardly even brush my teeth without knowing where Brinkley will be when I get done. We have officially brought out the baby gate. Now if only we had another one to put at the other end of the living room, all would be good!! I am now using their exersaucer and a bouncy seat to keep her in, however thats not working anymore. Only after a week of crawling, Brinkley is now pulling herself up on everything and walking along the couch or chair. She is also climbing into her bouncy seat all by herself and climbing over my barracades! I think she will be one to walk way before she is one. I want the days back where they just layed there and couldn't move!! :) She walks pretty good by holding your hands, but same thing with crawling. In a blink of an eye, she will be walking all by herself. My babies are growing way too fast! :(










Braelynn, Braelynn, Braelynn....................still just sitting there............. LOL. She is the 'chunkier' of the two, but oh so lazy. :) She makes me laugh, soooo layed back and not a care in the world. I still put her on her tummy and yes, she is getting better at trying to crawl, but she just has no desire. After Brinkley started crawling, I'm beginning to think its a good thing Braelynn isn't yet!! I have a hard enough time keeping up with one, let alone two! Braelynn is our comedian though. She makes the funniest noises and faces. She loves to scream at the top of her lungs and for you to do it back to her. It's like a contest to her and she just laughs. She is still into her 'fake' coughing. I think she just wants all the attention. She has learned how to play 'peek a boo' too. She will put a blanket over her head, wait for you to say 'Where's Braelynn.....where did she go??? and then takes the blanket down and just cracks up laughing!! Sooo cute. Jadyn taught her how to so called 'sign language' the word crazy. If you ask her if she's crazy, she will put both her hands on the side of her head. She is our little entertainer. :)





The other night they were getting ready for their bath, so they just had their diapers on. Braelynn was acting like a sumo wrestler. Hilarious!!!! Kip would make the 'errrrrrrrrr' sound with his arms tightened straight down against his side, and she would mimic him!!! She looked like a little baby sumo when she was doing that! Of course, didn't have time to get the video camera out, and even if I did, I'm sure she wouldn't have done it again. That's just how it works anymore..........

Brinkley is the 'thief' in the house. If I give them each a toy, could be the exact same toy, doesn't matter. Brinkley has to have it!!!!!!!! She will take everything away from Braelynn, including her binky. Braelynn has started sticking up for herself and yells at her everytime she takes something away. Before, she would just sit there and let her do it, but now its a different story. Everything is Brinkley's!!! or so she thinks. :)

I'm really wishing winter was over soon. It takes me an additional 20-30 mins every morning to bundle them up and take them to the car. They are beginning to hate it just as much. They will squirm and cry, just trying to get out of their car seats. Poor babies, I tell them everytime to, "I don't like this either, but Mommy has to do it!" They just don't understand..........
