10 Months

4-17-16
Carson and Cole are ten months. They are so much fun! The best word to describe them right now is BUSY! They crawl everywhere, fight over toys, love to pull themselves up to barstools, the ottoman, the bathtub, and the sliding glass doors so they can look out the window.  They love to crawl under the exersaucers and barstools in the kitchen, on the dishwasher when it's open, etc..  The world is their playground and they are so happy to explore just about anywhere.  Together they've figured out how to open cabinets and drawers and empty out any baskets I leave on the ground.





One thing is for sure and that is the Carson and Cole LOVE their big brother Kaden! They both get so excited when he plays with them and both adore any attention they get from him. He's a good big brother!


One of my absolute favorite things that the twins do right now is try to hold hands at meals. They spend way more time trying to do that than actually eating. It's the absolute cutest!


Cole continues to have the best giggle around. He laughs easily and often at just about anything.  He loves to eat. He is a big fan of string cheese, peanut butter sandwiches, rolls, peas, avocado, any cereal and strawberries. He's not terribly fond of bananas, but will usually eat just about anything else.  Coley signs more (in his own way of course) and gets very angry if I don't give him his sippy cup enough at meals. Cole loves mouths and is constantly trying to stick his fingers in anyone's mouth that he can.  He also loves toes. He's always biting my toes and trying to suck on them. I think he must like my nail polish because he doesn't do that to anyone but women.  Cole has two teeth.



First hike


Carson loves to climb.  His favorite to climb over is Cole.  He is still so fast at army crawling. He can finally crawl normally too (by lifting his stomach off the ground) but usually still prefers his army crawl. Carson is my little snuggle bug. He still loves to be held and snuggled. He'll crawl to me many times a day and tug on my pants until I pick him up. Carson has one tooth.  Carson loves to pound on things and kind of hits himself in the face when he tries to stroke his bottom lip to make a funny sound.  Carson is Kaden's little shadow and will follow him around all day long. Carson loves the toilet and the tile.  He's always trying to get into the bathroom so he can pound on the toilet lid or whatever. Carson had his first haircut this month since his hair was so long and crazy!  Carson loves his pacifier more than anything. He'll go to great lengths to get himself a pacifier. He's figured out which cabinet I keep extra pacifiers in in the kitchen and he's there quite a bit trying to get one out. Once he has it, he's the happiest, most easy and content baby. He's a really good sleeper since he loves his pacifier so much.










Besides Kaden, these boys also love playtime with Daddy

Easter 2016

Easter was super early this year (March 27) so I feel like it kind of snuck up on me. For Easter we did a bunch of egg hunts (as usual).  We tried to take Kaden to the Lehi City one and we were there a minute late and it was totally over, so we invited our neighbors, the Lowes, over to do an egg hunt with Kaden in the backyard. With our rock wall our backyard was actually pretty cool for an egg hunt, I must say!













On Sunday March 20 we celebrated Easter with the Seawright family.  We had an egg hunt, then a yummy dinner complete with bunny butter. :)












The beautiful sunset as we were leaving my parent's house

On March 26-27 we celebrated with the Fairbourns.  We had the annual egg hunt on Saturday and then the Easter bunny brought Kaden, Carson and Cole some fun things on Sunday!





 I found this fun little idea for breakfast. The kids loved them and they weren't super hard.









Our attempt at getting one decent family picture before church... our efforts were laughable at best!
