It keeps going and going and going....

Bo glued to Toy Story. She wasn't sleepy and wanted  "to do the party".

The rockin' cake.
Aunt Maryanne took some cake shots while mom cut and served the rest.





Then some presents, mass hysteria, and gorging on cake.

She didn't touch them

You decide. Katie swears she didn't touch my flowers. The little stinks are covered in pollen. It's amazing how it jumps off the flowers on to their face, hands, and backs; and in the process also petals fall into the body of the vase. Those are some crazy flowers.

"There are no coincidences when God is involved."

Granted Lois at the Deseret News writes a good story,
mommy tells it better. These are amazing little (under a lb a 1/2 each to begin, I think) TTTS girls that over the past 3 months have lived at St Mark's NICU and are now getting an angel flight home.

To infancy and beyond!

See, we're cute. Here's our cute post. Hey Hamm, look at me! I'm Cute! (Yes, we've seen Toy Story too much lately)

It's going to be stinkin awesome. In less than a month the boys are going to turn one. I can't believe it. TTTS, Seattle, 4lbs/5lbs-ers, all seem so recent. After serious over thinking, I have decided to have a Toy Story theme...including costumes. For all you nay-sayers, yes I know the 1st Birthday is just a cover so the mom can do what she wants, I am not trying to hide that fact. I want to dress my kids up (they like it too). I want a theme party. I chose Toy Story for a few reasons:
  • we did "thing 1 thing 2" and I think they are a bit young for Bo and Luke Duke, but watch for that in 09
  • they are a heroic and classic
  • equally yoked duo, no sidekicks, no yin and yang
  • cold costume friendly (aka halloween taken care of too)
  • fun cake (cakes are big deal around here)
But I was even more giddy when I came up with these gems...
Buzz: To infancy, and beyond!
Mr. Potato Head: How come *you* didn't have the laser, Woody?
Woody: It's not the laser. It's a little light bulb that blinks..
Who knew there were Twin to Twin Transfusion references in Toy Story? I think it goes without saying that the boys will be Buzz and Woody but sadly I am finding out that boys aren't as fun to costume as girls.

I'm not one for surprises, so look at what we're doing (Halloween? Done in August? Yep.).
Grace is about 90% done.

Kate is about 10% done and I haven't even started on the boys, but it's going to be amazing!
We're in the groove. We even made a little slide show to get more in the groove.
