DOUBLE TROUBLE!!!!

  These cute little stinkers are on a mission to destroy , make messes, climb, etc. etc.  Mission accomplished!  This little spree happened the other day when I was on the phone.  They saw mom was occupied for a second and they could see how much damage they could do.  This cabinet they pulled the cheerios from WAS baby proofed but they managed to pry it open. After I got started cleaning up, the phone rang again.  So they were nice to try and sweep it up themselves.  I seriously can't turn my back for one second.

Although they are smiling in the picture, they were fighting over this chair.  It's pretty even who wins.  Tanner's bigger but Spencer doesn't let that get to him.

A cute game of peek a boo

Jake had left his peanut butter and jam sandwich too close to the edge of the table and the babies got to it.  Spencer got the peanut butter side.  I put him in the chair and let him finish what he started.  We happened to be talking to my dad on the computer when my dad was playing peek a boo with him.  As you can tell from the picture above, Spencer covers his head in this game.  Thus in the picture below, Spencer's hair is covered in peanut butter.  Thanks, Dad!  :0)

Notice the milk and cheerios on the floor and that Tanner has the bowl?  I had just put their bowl (full) on the table and turned around to get my chair to feed the babies.  I didn't realize Tanner was close enough to snatch it up to pour most of it on the floor.  Then he went a head and dug in what was left.

He thinks he's so funny.  :0)

Spilled milk is a very common sight in our house.

Anyone that has told me twins get easier as they get older.....  Sorry, I don't  believe it.  However, as messy as my house is, I wouldn't change it for ANYTHING.  I love my little stinkers.

Seville Spain

This last holiday weekend we spent the day in Seville.  This beautiful place is only an hour away from us.  I had never been because Nick went a couple of times last year just after the twins were born.  He took our family when they came to help with the babies. So it was fun for me to go visit this time.  The parks, plazas, and buildings are just beautiful.  The third largest cathedral in the world is there, where Christopher Columbus is buried.  It's just breathtaking.  I know we say it all of the time but,  the pictures don't do it justice.

Max's Baptism

Today Max got baptized.  It was such a special day for him and we are so happy for him to be in our family.  We belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  We believe baptism is a special covenant we make with our Heavenly Father, so it was a very special day for Max.  The hardest part of living away from family is not having them at these special occasions, but we also recognize these are unique experiences for our kids too.  He can say he was baptized in Spain.  Here are many pictures.  Yes, we made him pose a little too much.  But he's such a cutie, I couldn't resist!

ALSO..... Yes, Nick is wearing a VERY pink tie.  Our Spanish friends gave it to him because it's THE cool color for guys to wear in Spain.  So since Max got baptized here, he wore it for the memory book.  You'll notice our branch president is wearing a purple tie as well.  It's the Spanish style.  For real.

After the baptism, we had refreshments.  You'll see Tanner's walking and was showing off his new skills.
