Noah and Ava

How Twins play peek-a-boo

It has been a big couple of days in the Lee household. Ava is practically crawling! Noah said "momma"! This was very exciting but since Nathan recently changed his name to "blah blah" and Noah said that a few days ago, I apparently didn't win the momma/dadda race.

They are also entertaining each other quite well. As you can see in the video below, Ava was just cracking up the other day. She thought Noah was the funniest person she's ever met. And he thought she was pretty hysterical too!

Happy Mother's Day!

I must say, my first Mother's Day has been wonderful. I never thought I would relish this mommy-hood business so much, but I do. I couldn't hope for anything better. We have been truly blessed. And now I'm going to do what all mommies do... force you to look at pictures of my perfect babies! :)

The twins just started their first solids a few weeks ago (rice cereal). Noah was ready:

Ava was not:

They are still very messy:

They are getting better at sitting up and they love hanging out with Forrest:

Mother's Day!

I hope that all the other mothers out there had a fabulous day too!

Hangin' Out

For those of you who didn't know yet, Nathan quit his job about 3 weeks ago. He immediately found new work in a much more rewarding environment with lots of great benefits and a constantly growing clientele... in other words, he's a stay at home dad now! He says its a good thing he has a sugar momma! :)

We also want to thank Laura, Erin, my mom & Ellen for coming out in March to babysit. We couldn't have done it without you!

Here are some fun pics from the last few weeks:

Noah & Ava love their Aunt Laura!

Oh how we've grown!

The twins turned 5 months about two weeks ago so in honor of this, I wanted to post some pictures to put in perspective how quickly they've grown. We didn't do very well with taking the same picture every month but I tried to include pictures that all took place in the same general place like their bouncy chair or on the monkey blanket.

The first weeks:
