Busy Busy

I love fall. No really I love love love fall! The leaves changing (I think we got shorted this year), the smell. It is my favorite season. That being said we have been busy with the kids. Let's see first molars for all (yikes), a trip to the Arboretum in Chaska, fall/15 month pictures, and grandma's all over!

The twin talk these days is hilarious. They have their own code and know when to start and stop. It begins each day at breakfast and goes all day.

Sara has now learned to sign more and is starting to use words more. Her favorite word is up...aka pick me up. Danyal has words galore! He loves ba-ba (milk) and go still seems to be a favorite.

Here are a few pictures of what has kept us so busy.

Lots of little things

to update on.

First off I have been busting my bum off at Steele Fitness. If you really want a new way to work out this is it. It is all personal training and mixes cardio with weights. In the last 2 1/2 months they have helped me drop 10lbs and 15 inches! I no longer care about what the scale says as the inches are coming off. I used to hate working out and would need a nap afterwards. Now I have energy and it is great.

Second, have you ever had "those days". Not the bad ones but the great ones. Where you realize as you have gotten older life has just gotten better. I am married to a great guy, I have two little balls of energy who love to play together, great friends and family. It is just one of those great days.

The kids had their fall pictures/15 month pictures and they are so cute! On top of it all fall is in the air and Halloween is around the corner, my favorite holiday.

It has been a while

since I update the blog with anything but pictures. We have made the move and are finally settling in. We LOVE the new house. Ramblers are such great houses for kids. They run from end to end and it must seem huge. I grew up in a rambler and it seemed huge at the time.

We have made some milestones lately. Danyal has a lot of words such as: hi, bu-bye, up, door, big bird, num, uh-oh, and ouch. It is so cute to seem him talk so much. Somethings never change. When he was a baby he would babble on forever and "give a speech" we would say. He still does now but we can understand more of what he is saying. Danyal also hates to see his "gaga" (grandma) go. He will cry, go to the door and try and open it. Most of all he loves to go to the window and say bu-bye.

Sara is starting to say hi, bu-bye, and has said thank you. Sara can climb anything and everything! Stairs, into toy boxes, through wooden openings. We have to be careful with her.

We have finally started ECFE and it is helping to burn some energy along with the huge playroom that is built upstairs (not to great for adults over 5'8"). The kids are getting more teeth and I am ready for the teething to end. Then again they won't be babies anymore, they will always be my babies.

So many days it is still unreal to me that I have these two amazing kids. How did the last 7 years fly by so fast?
