"One Adam Twelve, One Adam Twelve"

We have a man down... sorry for the delay in posting anything lately, but my back has been out. Not just out, I mean OUT! The dynamic duo has put a hurtin' on my already feeble and failing back. It's slowly feeling a bit better. But enough about me as I am sure you want to hear the latest and greatest about our fun little boys. Notice I say boys and not babies... they are getting so big and boyish! They are babbling all the time and are fast as lightening. No walkers yet; a few unassisted steps from Holden a few days ago but that's it. They like to use the toy walker to walk with and ram into the walls and chairs cursing in baby talk when it gets stuck. It's funny to see them go from one extreme to the other when that happens! We had a happy Easter and hope you all did too. Here are a few shots of them from Easter Sunday.

3 More Days Until 11 Months Old

Branson and Holden will be 11 months old on March 24th. One more month and it will be a year.... we can hardly believe how the time has flown by! Wow! They are looking more and more like little boys and less like little babies. Here are a couple of pictures I took last week; they tried spaghetti for the first time. Holden really liked the noodles and Branson was less than impressed.

water babies

Both Branson and Holden love the water. We have taken them swimming a couple of times to the indoor pool at the YMCA and they really love it. Here is a cute picture of Holden taking a bubble bath and having a conversation with Officer Duck. We can't wait for summer time!

Put on my my my my boogie shoes... and boogie with you

Branson likes to dance. Holden does too and will sway back and forth with some music (his favorite thing is to jump up and down a lot), but Branson really likes to shake his money maker!

Where to begin?

Branson and Holden are such fun guys... how did we get so darn lucky?! They cheese it up all the time and have the best sense of humors for being such little guys. They are doing more these days, let me see if I can think of some new stuff - hmmm: Waiving good bye or hello (sometimes they waive backwards, but are getting better at it every day), babbling and using more and different sounds (mamama, dadada, babytalk, etc.), going to get the ball when I say "go get your ball", trying to pick baby safety locks, etc. .... you know the usual. They aren't walking yet, all but walking. I've seen Holden stand up for a few seconds without holding on to anything, and Branson is taking more and more steps while holding on to one thing and then going to another. It's fun to watch them improve each day!

Just growing and moving these days

The boys have just been growing and getting in more teeth and more hair these days. Branson and Holden definitely have their own personalities and it's cute to see them playing more and more with each other. We are babyproofing fast and furiously; as seen by the locks on the cabinets in the above picture. They are getting around quickly and are cruising all over the place. Looking for trouble wherever they can find it!

Warm day for a cold

Branson and Holden have their first cold/cough this week. It has been so warm the past couple of days that we played outside; I thought some fresh air would do them some good!

Branson tried to eat some pinestraw and Holden wanted to get out to play with Gracie. It was nice just playing outside for a while.
