Return to Smiley...for more family fun!

We had a girls trip to Smiley earlier this month (thank you Aunt Becky for joining us and helping)!!  We wanted to go get some more lovin' from Granny, Poppy Cows and of course Gigi! 

It was a good trip...quick..but nice.   The girls warmed up a little faster to everyone this time and there were a lot of laughs! 

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the trip..


Playing with Gigi:


Poppy Cows feeding us....it's a little messy... (look closely at Brooke's face!)

Helping Granny in the kitchen

Sitting outside with Poppy Cows..enjoying the weather and green grass!


Self-Feeding continues...as does the extra "treats" for the pups!

Ashlee continues to be really interested in the self-feeding concept..and when I don't put something on her tray at meal time..she looks for it! 

Brooke still doesn't have much interest in putting it in her mouth...but does enjoy being artistic. 

The dogs continue to hang out .. hoping to be in the right place at the right time. 






Thanksgiving

The Twincesses 1st Thanksgiving was nice and quiet.  The girls woke up in good moods and were ready to tackle the day!  We went to Nana and Poppy's for lunch and they got to taste our first dressing and fully loaded mashed potatoes... 

Ashlee was ALL over it...no surprise.  Brooke was not too sure about the dressing..but liked the potatoes. 

They explored Nana and Poppy's new house and got to play with the toys that they keep there..which are always a "like new!"  

Of course most of the time they were in the kitchen under our feet trying to help! 


GOOD Morning Thanksgiving Day!! 



Daddy reading to us mid-morning so Mommy can pack our bag and get us ready to go! 

Hurry guys...we are READY!! 

Poppy was sharing a photo album with Brooke...while Ashlee played Little People 

Our first Turkey Day Feast.....



The Traditional Thanksgiving Nap....it's hard work!




Cheering for Cousin Will...

The weather was nice one Saturday ... so the girls and I loaded up to go watch Will play football and Morgan cheer. 

It was a close game...Ashlee was so nervous she almost bit her turtle's head off...and Brooke had to hang with the cheerleaders!  

I just adore the photo of Morgan and Brooke...too cute!







Cold weather brought out the beanies....a love/hate relationship...







Silly Girls in their Angel Jammies...

We got some new Angel Jammies....and we were being very goofy in them when Mommy wanted to take our pictures!


This is blurry..but her face cracks me up!!


I can't remember what she was laughing at...but priceless!

Baby Jail......a MUST!

As you can imagine the girls are EVERYWHERE!  "Baby Jail" is a MUST in our house ... to keep us safe and sane!  Gus and Jake are happy about it too..as it seems there is almost no where for them to go to escape anymore!  Here are a few pics over the last few months of WHY we have "Baby Jail" and some of the girls playing in custody. 

"Baby Jail"

Hey...let me out of here!

Bouncy Chairs...Ashlee loves to crawl under and around them...



It's a "Brooke Taco"....not sure how she did this?

Hhmmm..What's under here?


A show down with Jake...who's going to move first?

Mom..I am not sure what happened to the missing piece?

The window is so much fun....

we share it with the dogs...

Sippy Cup Success!!

We have tried multiple sippy cups over the last few months...and I think we FINALLY found one that we like and can use!  Thank goodness for the "Nuby - No Spill Flip-It Straw Sippers!"


Today is day #2 with them and so far so good! (We still get our bottles at night time..but hey..baby steps right?) 


Fall Fun!

The Moore Family is LOVING the Fall weather we are finally having!!  It's so nice to be able to bundle up and go outside to enjoy it!  The girls really like be outdoors and exploring all it has to offer.  Grass and leaves seem to be the hit right now!
