Lots to update on the Nuggets

The bigger the twins get, the less time I have to sit on the computer and update my blog.  But right now they are napping so I hope my fingers can type fast!!

Leah and Ryan are 10 months old and their first birthday party is right around the corner.  So much has happened in the past few weeks. 

Leah is getting more girly and Diva like as the weeks go on.  Every little bump from her brother results in a meltdown.  I dont know where she gets her acting skills from (sarcasm!).  Her eyes seem to get more blue everyday and her hair is growing too! Seriously a cute baby.  She claps her hands whenever she hears someone say "YEAH!!!" and just this week she has sstarted to wave and say byebye.  Daddy worked hard to get her to do that!  Lele still isn't crawling but she can roll around the floor to get what she wants.  Oh and Lele got her first TOOTH! Yes after a horrible week of not sleeping, I put my finger in her mouth to try and feel something and I did! Such a relief to know there was a reason to her crying! 

Ryan is all BOY! Even when he plays with his sister's teapot he is all BOY! Rough and playful!  He loves to get tickeled and has the cutest laugh.  He is definitely a talker and we think he is saying "ball" now.  I think his hair is juuuust starting to grow.  He outweighs his sister by about 2 pounds and at their last checkup he was almost two inches taller.  He loves to eat even if he isn't fond of a particular food, he still eats it!  No wonder he is so much heavier!

We had our first family vacation a couple weeks ago.  Dale and I summond up the courage to take the kids to the Delaware Beaches! We stayed with his sister and her family and it was a blast.  The kids slept well which was one of out biggest concerns.  They absolutely LOVED the pool especially the wave pool.  Leah kicked her legs and squealed in excitement as soon as she saw the water.  It was awesome.  We made it to the Rehoboth Boardwalk and even had our first restaurant experience.  While it wasn't the classiest of restaurants (Hooters...I know, way to go Mom of the Year!) it was the only one without a wait to be seated.  The twins even got to sit at the kid table with all of their cousins.

So summer is almost over.  Dale and I plan to take the twins to the beach for the first time this week.  (even though we went on vacation, they never really sat on the beach and saw the ocean).  I am really looking forward to that.

Their first birthday party planning is in full swing.  I have lots to do to get ready.  Invitations are ready to be sent.  Now I gotta plan decorations.

Hopefully I can post again soon.  Maybe one of the nuggets will decide to walk or crawl before their first birthday.  Maybe.
