i need to check & post those soon too.

okay, i'm sorry. i'll stop talking about my stolen phone for one post.

back to my story...

my little 3 pound twins turned SEVEN in july.

time, will ya slow the heck down?! geez.

on their actual birthday, they wanted to go iceskating again.

so we picked up their lil' friend, dropped off the nunu, & away we went!

 

a little ring around the rosey on ice. no big deal.

one of my favorite pics right now. ellie & daddy, dancing away on the ice. swooooooon.

these girls bring SO much joy into our lives. i can't stand how big they're getting, but still love how innocent & sweet they are.

some things i want to remember about them:
-just the other day, they came home & said, "mom, everyone has their ears pierced in our class but us! can we get ours pierced?" guess where we're headed on friday? ;)
-and yesterday ellie asked if we could buy her a belt. i guess all the cool kids are wearing a belt these days? haha!
-ellie still likes her arms & face tickled at night.
-audrey slept walk the other night & almost peed in tim's laundry basket. her little bare hiney was stuck right in there & scared the kajeebies outta me!
-they asked me if i was ever going to have another baby the other day & i had to tell them no. it was sad.
-sometimes i listen to their conversations through the door at night. sometimes i'm rolling! and other times, i'm crying. they are the sweetest.
-they hold hands a lot. randomly. it's the sweetest.

they are so funny. they're at their first tennis lesson as we speak. hehe. i love them! i love them!

twins, man.
never knew the ride i was in for when my water broke at 32 weeks.
thank you Jesus for this crazy awesome blessing you knew about all along.
