I don't mean to brag...but I think that this laugh is the cutest thing that I have ever heard! Addie is such a happy baby. From the moment that she gets up, to bedtime, she just smiles and coos and laughs at the littlest thing. She even cut a tooth this week and wasn't fussy at all! I was just feeling around in her mouth and felt her first tooth! Crazy!


Mornings together

I'm so glad that I was finally able to upload a video of the kids (I have been having some difficulties).

When the kids first wake up in the morning, I usually put them in one of their cribs together. They get so excited to see each other and love to watch
either their mobile or the crib music box. Don't laugh at how many times I say "Hi guys." I didn't realize I said that so much until now. Oh well!

Just another day at home

I have been staring at my computer now for too long trying to come up with something funny or witty to write, but I am just too damn tired! So...enjoy the pics!

Dave did Ethan's hair today!


The Girls!
The boys!

Grandma and Grandpa Sobolik

Dave's parents Frank and Jan made it into town last week from Colorado.  It had been 4 months since they last saw the babies.  They were really surprised at how much the kids had changed!  Even though the weather wasn't very nice, we still managed to make it out a few times.  We took them to downtown Camas, which is so cute, and did a little shopping at the antique store and some kids clothing stores.  We even used some of Frank's expertise and went to the local nursery to pick out some trees and shrubs for our yard.  Most of the trip though was spent at home just visiting and playing with the kids (of course!).

Ready to go out for the day!

Ethan isn't quite sure about all this!  He is NOT a fan of going in his car seat.
But we had fun anyways!

Time to Blog!

Dave with the new baby jogger and our friend/neighbor Trey with Cade


Out to lunch with Heather and our neighbors for my birthday.


O.k. so everyone else seems to have a blog these days, and since I haven't found any other good way to keep everyone updated on us and the kids, maybe this will work!  Both babies are 6 months old now and really starting to discover things.  They aren't mobile yet (thank goodness) but I know that is coming soon.  Ethan is a total crack up (just like his Dad).  He makes the funniest faces and is interested in everything, but also like Dave, only stays interested in it for a minute or two and then onto the next thing.  I get the feeling that he is going to keep me very busy once he can walk.  Addison is definitely our little princess.  She still only weighs 12 lbs!  She is all smiles all the time and has just recently discovered that she can make bubbles with her own spit.  She is fascinated with her brother and the dog.   We started them on solids (rice cereal and some veggies) and holy crap...what a mess(those of you who know me well, know that I have a problem with messes)!  Ethan will eat anything we give him and I can't seem to get it in his mouth fast enough, but Addison is NOT a fan of anything but warm rice cereal.  My Mom said that I didn't eat solids til I was over a year old so she must get that from me.  We also just bought a baby jogger and the kids love to go on runs with Daddy.  I also love having a few minutes to take my shower or at least just brush my teeth!   All in all, we are surviving.  I really had no idea how busy life would be with two babies, but Dave and I would both agree that we wouldn't change it for the world.  I promise to update this regularly, so keep checking!
