July

The babies have been very busy lately! Maxwell has found his love for cars and trucks. He loves driving them around our house. Piper isn't interested at all in them, she loves to drag her clothes, especially the pink ones, through the house. Almost as if they are a blankie. She will sit with them and just play with the straps, rub her fingers though them. It's hilarious. That's a new thing she does.

They are now 17 months old. I can't believe that they are almost a year and a half! Little Piper is just now starting to talk. My big girl can now say hi and mama. She loves to say hi to each and every person that comes into the room. I love her little voice. Maxwell is saying hi, mama, no, ball, and bye. I'm trying to teach them a new word every day, but so far it's more like a new word every week or two. They actually chat with each other a lot, though I have no idea what they are saying. It's the funniest thing. I will have to get a video of it. They have their own language, I guess. They are starting to play together more and more, which is SO NICE FOR ME. Gives me a much needed break!

They had their well baby checks last week. Maxwell is still our big boy. He is in the 90th percentile or height, and the 95th percentile for weight. Until now, he's always been in the 100 percentile for weight, which doesn't surprise me, Piper's been eating more than him for the past few months. Piper was in the 13th and 14th percentile for both height and weight. She's still our little "peaunt."

We are looking forward to our big trip to Disneyland with the babies. I know....we must be crazy taking two 1 yr olds to Disneyland!! We are taking Aunt Jennie to help out. Should be interesting!

Here are a few recent pictures of the twins.
