Look at this child's face. Do we have a cat? Nope. He seems to get into scratching wars with his hands and fingers. Does is get any worse than this? I can't seem to stop it. I am trimming his nails constantly but he still gets himself almost everyday. He scratches when he's mad, while he sleeps, when he's tired, and when he nurses. It's a little out of control and drives me crazy. You'll find this little boy with socks on his hands quite often. When will he grow out of it? Any tips or advice on this one?

Happy Baby Carson!

Carson loves his little saucer. He's just barely big enough for it. Cade isn't quite there yet. I put a blanket in with him so that he wasn't so wobbly. He still is kind of a bobble head, but he's getting better! I can tell that this is going to be a good little toy!

Cade absolutely loves being on his tummy, which is weird. Most babies don't seem to like it. I get some good smiles and cute faces from him while he plays on his tummy. Here are a few of them.

YIKES!!!
How sweet is that smile?!

Just hanging out...about to roll over!

One Day...Two Posts!

Like father, like son...in more ways than one! Daddy just chillin' with his little clone. They are both glued to the TV...surprise, surprise!

Daddy with his little clone getting ready to take a little snooze. Again, like father, like son!!!

This was after church. It is always super hot in our building and by the end of our meetings the boys are always roasting. So, they just got to cool down and hang out in their little onsies for awhile. They always look so cute in their undies!!!

We got both of them smiling! It is getting easier to hold them both at the same time since they can support themselves a little better.

Three happy boys! This was taken right when the twins got up in the morning. They are always so happy in the mornings. Cade kept covering his face and wouldn't keep his fingers out of his mouth. This one turned out pretty darn cute!

I love this one because Cade & Carson are holding hands...how cute is that?! They actually do this all of the time. They've even tried to suck on each other's hands...so fun!

Fun Weekend

This weekend I got to go to my friend Christy's baby shower. She is having a little boy and is 6 weeks away from delivery. We had such a good time. Shane had to work so I took the babes with me...lots of arms to hold them! They did so well...happy boys! After the shower, Shane came home and we loaded up the boys again for Kyle Schnoor's birthday party! We had a great time...lots of friends to visit with. I took our camera and unfortunately forgot to take pictures. I wanted to get pictures of the boys with Brayden (Amanda's little boy) and also some of Cara's cute prego tummy...didn't happen. Thanks to the Schnoors for putting on such great parties. We had super yummy food. It was a good time. It ended up being a long day for Carson & Cade but they did really well...again, happy boys! Here are a few pictures I took at the Baby Shower.

The shower went into their nap time just a little...Cori put Cade right to sleep which is not an easy thing! He sleeps best in his bed and doesn't fall asleep very well otherwise.
Me and the Mother-To-Be!

If you know Carson, you know that he loves attention and gets excited to be with people. He's a social boy and highly enjoyed the girl pary!
Christy...so cute!
Kelly with Carson. Kelly is one of my visiting teachers and has been for about 4 years...she's great!

Getting Caught Up!

I've posted more than normal this week, but I needed to get all caught up with my pictures. Granted, I take quite a few but I just can't help it! This should bring me current...at least for a few more days! Bundled for their walk. I found a couple little hats that actually fit this time!

Cade looks so sad in this picture. He actually was being a pretty happy boy. I put little socks on their hands to keep them warm.
The boys got cute little Winnie the Pooh outfits from Grandma Lori for Easter and I just happened to have a little Pooh hat that is adorable. Carson was so cute, I had to take some pictures!

Want More Pictures?!?

This is what these two have to look forward to for the rest of their lives!!! Hopefully they don't poke, hit, or bite eachother too much!

Conference Weekend

Taking an afternoon snooze with Cade. Watching all that conference is exhausting!!!
Carson loves his Daddy and thinks he's pretty funny. I love these pictures.
Look how smart our son is...he already knows how to sign "I Love You!"

We spent Sunday morning with our friends Jason & Christy. They made such a yummy breakfast before the morning session. It was nice to spend some down time with them...we don't get to enough. This is Jason with Carson.
Jason & Christy live up in Wilderness Ranch...they pretty much own their own mountain! It is absolutely beautiful. This the the view outside their kitchen...to die for!!!

Ode To Our Tax Man!

We love our tax man...Shane! However, we don't love how busy he is. He doesn't get to be home with us much these days. Ironically, he's not busy doing taxes, rather Audit work. We love him and appreciate all he is doing to take care of us. We had a little photo shoot in their "Tax Deduction" onesies in honor of him. We hope he likes the results!!! We are so excited that April is here...Shane will get to be home more often very soon and we can't wait! We love you Daddy!

This guy has got some cheeks!!! I love them...especially when he looks like he doesn't have a neck!
Little Carson Man just being cute for the camera!
Yes...we have discovered our fingers! We LOVE them!!! Who needs toys when you've got fingers??? They just don't really know when to stop...they are gagging themselves quite often! They'll learn, right?!
Cade & Carson

Love this close up of Cade
They both have such big eyes. Aren't they looking more and more different? Some people still think they look identical...not even close!!!:)

We Hate Shots!

Today our boys went in to see the Doctor for their 4 month check up. I still can't believe they are already 4 months old. The visit included the dreaded immunization shots...hate them and as you can see, Carson hates them too! Despite a little crying, they are doing super. The doc was very pleased with their growth and progress. They are both right on track on the growth curve...still a little small for their age but are right where they need to be.

Carson has passed up Cade big time. So funny to watch just because he was smaller for so long. He is about 2 inches longer and weighs a little more than a pound more. Here are his stats:

Height: 24.5 inches
Weight: 13 pounds
Head Circum: 40.3

Way to go Carson!!!

Cade is just a little thing. He's got short, little, skinny legs...surprise, surprise! He is still right on track and the doctor has no concerns. They are two different babies with different genetics. It will be fun to watch them continue to grow. I'm sure they'll become more and more different with age. Here are Cade's stats:

Height: 23 inches
Weight: 11 pounds 14 ounces
Head Circum: 40.8

Good job Cade...Mommy is proud!

These are just a few pictures to point out their little differences!

Carson's tummy is bigger, arms are bigger, legs are chunky..er! Yep, he's pretty much bigger all around! Carson is on the left.
Again, Carson is on the left. And for those of you who haven't seen it...Carson does have a little hernia on his belly button but it is closing up more and more everyday. The doctor was really pleased with how much that has improved. Poor little boys. I'm totally exposing them to the whole world!

We've been blessed with the cutest little boys. I'm so proud to be their mother. They make me want to be better each day and have made our home so much fun. We love being parents and we love having twins. We can't imagine only having one of them. We feel so blessed to have them both. It brings along a lot of challenges but the fun and blessings that have come far out-weigh the challenges. Life is good!

Recent Pictures

Carson is such a smiley little boy but for some reason, I can't seem to capture it very well on camera. Still so cute!
Love this close up of Cade. Same thing...you want me to smile???
We tried out our side-by-side double stroller (thanks to my friends at Washington Mutual...I miss you!) for the first time the other night. It was a little chilly outside so it was a quick trip. They look like such big boys in it.
This is one thing I ablsolutely HATE doing and seem to be doing it ALL OF THE TIME!!! Why do their nails have to grow so fast??? I'm getting better at it...I get it done quick!

Deer in the headlights look for both of them! Cade on the left...Carson on the right!
This picture is so funny of Carson. The had was a little too small but it was all I had! He looks like a little elf but a happy elf at that!!!

Carson loves to play on his tummy only when he's propped up on the boppy. Aren't boppies the greatest!?
Oh so cute!

This was too precious of Carson. He likes to have something to hold onto when he sleeps. He's cuddling with his lion friend Roary!!!

Cade is rolling! He goes from his tummy to his back all the time...it's so cute! He loves to arch his little back. He topples over no problem. He surprisingly is a happy boy on his tummy.
Look how high I can hold my head!!!
