1 second!

I walk out of the room for 1 second, and I return to find them in the guest bath making a mess!


The Bathroom door was closed, so I have no idea how this happened! There is now a safety lock on the cabinet. Silly babies! - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

1 Year Old Checkup

Today the girls had their 1 year old checkup. It was our first time meeting with our new pediatrician. She said the girls are doing great and meeting all their milestones. Both babies got 3 shots each. They only cried for a short about of time. I was really proud of my big girls! The Dr. did keep saying the word Toddler. I was thrown off by it. I mean, my babies are only 12 mos! I need to look up the definition of toddler. Here they are with their bandaids on their legs. :(


Ruby weighed in at 18 pounds 8 ounces! She is 31 inches, making her in 93% for height! Everyone always tells us she is tall, but I never thought anything of it. Mable weighed in at 16 pounds 11 ounces! She is 28.8 inches in height. In the last 3 weeks she has gained close to a pound! After the Dr. we had lunch at Spring Creek BBQ. This is where Eric worked in high school. He was very excited to take us there!








After their afternoon nap and Eric got home from work, we went to the park by our house. The weather was awesome today! We really love it here! There are parks and ponds everywhere!














After playing, we feed the girls, bathed them and put our tired babies to bed.


Even though there were shots involved in our day, I think it turned out to be a good day! Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

1st Birthday Party!

We celebrated the girls Bday Party on the 17th of December, before we left Shreveport. I really thought I already posted about their party, but I looked back recently and noticed I had not. Oops! The party theme was Winter Onederland! Everything was done in snowflakes. We invited family and close friends. Honestly, it was exhausting, but well worth all the work! The girls had a great time! They loved opening gifts and getting to see all their family. Here are some pictures from party day! The morning of the party Mable noticed her gifts.


The dessert table


The main food table


I put some pictures out and our blog book from my pregnancy.


Getting some pre party pictures in front of their rockers from Nana and Pop.


Happy Day!


Our friend, Stowie. Look at Mae's face! Ha!


Opening gifts! Mable needed a drink!


Checking out the dancing Mickey from Uncle Gabe.


Trying out your new ponies from Grammy and Papa.


Cake time!


Ruby was excited!


And really liked the cake!


Mable was very careful not to get dirty.


They loved their cozy coupes from Aunt Jen and Uncle Shawn! We took them for a ride later in the day.


And thought they were big girls sitting at their picnic table from pappaw!


I got all their party paper goods from 62cards.com . I loved these cupcake toppers! The picture in the middle is one of my favorites! It's from right after they were born.


Babies, I hope you had a great 1st Birthday Party! Mommy and Daddy love you so much! Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Happy Birthday!

Ruby and Mable, 1 year ago today at 7:59am and 8:01am you entered this world. I can not describe how much we love you. Words can never express the emotions from 365 days ago. Today at the exact times you were born, Daddy and I loved on each of you.
Today was a great day!

You played...


In your tutus


In your wagon


At the park





And went out for pizza on The Waterway.








Happy 1st Birthday Sweet Girls! We love you!

As of lately...

We have been on the move! On December 28th we close on our Shreveport house and the next day close on our home in The Woodlands. Tonight is actually our first night to stay here. We wanted to get everything done before brining the babies to the house.

We worried about the girls missing the house they had known for almost the last year. So far they are doing great! Before we left Shreveport we let them pull all their books off their shelf one last time.


We stayed at Aunt Jen and Shawn's house while working on the house. Ruby and Mable loved the big play place!



We are home!


Their room is like it was in the other house, only difference is their beds are next to each other.


We are working on getting settled in and looking forward to our new life in The Woods! That's what the locals call the area. :)

Christmas 2011

Ruby and Mable, your first Christmas was a blast! You loved opening gifts and playing with all your new toys. On Christmas eve we went to church. Ruby you sang along with all the songs. Mable you sat in daddy's lap like a little angel. Here are some pictures from Christmas.

Christmas eve opening gifts.


Christmas morning. Not sure what to think about it all.














We loved our wagan!


The girls crawled up to their chairs and sat in them forever. I think Santa did a great job!
