Sleep Sacks!

One of our biggest challenges for the last month has been keeping Lucas in his crib. Our little Spider-Man has learned to climb both out of and back in to his crib and doesn't always want to go to bed when we say so. One solution that seems to be helping are big kid sleep sacks, basically wearable blankets with holes for their feet and arms. They actually really like them! Lucas' has a monster truck on it, so I am sure that is part of the appeal! Jocelyn's has a cupcake and she spins and swings around in it like it is a big dress!

21+ months!

We're back! Sorry we have been MIA for a few months. Jocelyn and Lucas are growing so fast (21 months last week) and it is keeping us so busy! We are really enjoying the not-so-new-anymore house and all the space we have to jump, run, tumble and play! 

New Home

We moved this weekend to a new home. It was a little sad to leave our condo, it had been the only home the twins know. But we welcomed our new House with open arms and much excitement. We have a third bedroom, 2 car garage, backyard and everything is on one level (no more stairs!). 

We are halfway unpacked. The living room, kitchen, play area and twin's room are all done. 

Jocelyn and Lucas were so excited to see their new home. They were running around everywhere! And they loved their  housewarming gift... new chairs! Well Lucas loved using it as a tool to get on the coffee table! 

Pre Bedtime Play

To say that Jocelyn and Lucas get a little wound up after bath time and before bedtime is an understatement. They're like wild chickens we have to wrangle into their room every night! But it's a lot of fun!

Kansas

Rick and I had our first adult weekend away, without Jocelyn and Lucas for more than 1 night. It was actually 3 nights and 3 days away! We headed to Manhattan, Kansas for a family friend's wedding. It was a true country event from the Kentucky Derby themed cocktail party with homemade bourbon balls (made by my mother in law!) to the wedding reception held in a straw floored tent on the bride's family ranch, Farley Ranch. We had a great time!

And Jocelyn and Lucas had a wonderful weekend at the Mayes house. They enjoyed some time in the sun and wore out their grandma Booboo, grandpa, and aunt Erin! The text I received from Erin on Saturday night said something like "I've never been so tired in my entire life"! Lol!

Birthday Fun!

Last week was my 35th (yikes!) birthday. It was a wonderful day spent with family and friends. I took the day off work and we started the festivities with breakfast at one of my favorite restaurants, Schooner or Later in Long Beach. It was really special because we were joined by my college bestie Kenz, her family, and my good friends Darcey and Bryan.
