Hugs...

Happy Thanksgiving ..a few days late. Hope everyone enjoyed some good food and family time. We had a nice, kind of relaxing day. Went down to my parents and spent the day, the girls didn't take great naps so the last few hours were a bit of a disaster but we enjoyed ourselves for the most part. Let's see....updates. In the above pic the girls are giving each other a hug - wearing there baby legs which are kind of like leg warmers but you can pull them up so it makes it easier for diaper changes rather than wearing tights. They are pretty cool and they seemed to like them. Maddi's favorite word is "mine" right now...and Morgan's is "no" They are both talking a ton and everyday they are saying new words. Morgan is always very concerned about Maddi, for instance if I give Morgan anything..a snack, a bite of something or a toy she always has to have the same thing to give Maddi...she looks right at me holds her hand out and says "Maddi." It is very cute. She is definitely the more dominant one, she also give Cooper a run for his money. Maddi is still pretty laid back, she really likes to eat and has a favorite book that she wants to read 1000 times a day. She knows every picture and word but loves to hear it - yesterday we kind of hid it behind a few other books and I thought she was going to have a fit after she came down from her nap she went over to find it she started throwing all the other books behind her and then she finally found it and I saw a look of relief in her eyes, it was so funny. She is so cute, her facial expressions are the best. Cooper is finally listening!!! I don't know what clicked but all of a sudden he is like a new kid...I don't have to repeat myself 10 times before he does it, maybe something just clicked - I don't know but what a nice change. Over the past week Stephen has not traveled and it has been so nice for all of us to hang out and have some good quality family time. This is the most he has been home for about 5 or 6 months so we have really enjoyed it. Now back to reality I guess. We are all doing well and I am going to try and update this site more and put a few pics up every few days. Try being the key word!! Keep checking back.....
