Happy Birthday...

The girls wanted to say a "Happy Belated Birthday" to Grandma Carol and a "Happy Birthday" to their cousin Bryce. Bryce will be a teenager tomorrow and the twins look forward to watching Aunt Janet's hair turn gray!

Here they are singing Happy Birthday!

Did someone say cake?


"Mom, if you would just put that camera down and feed me, I wouldn't have to try to nurse the hoof of this darn horse!"
I am posting pretty early this morning. After I fed the girls at 5 am I decided I would get canning while Wes was around and the girls were sleeping (Wes was technically sleeping as well). I was slicing jalapenos when I heard Wes come around the corner and say, "Are you canning? At 6 in the morning?"
I've found that I have a lot of energy to get things done early in the morning or after middle of the night bottles. I was folding clothes at 3 am the other night. There is a part of me that tries to ignore the urge to accomplish things without interuptions and just go back to bed. But then I realize that maybe this is just part of being a mom. Isn't that how our moms seemed to accomplish so much in so little time? They found time to get things done. Now I know where they found that time, too.
