All is well here at Baby-Central, Spring has taken a break, it will be 90 the next few days and I absolutely LOVE IT! News on the front is quite scary, Nia is now standing and walking SLOWLY around the edges of the playard and her crib. She's taken a few mini tumbles, no blood shed ;p) and is pretty happy just standing around looking at the new view. We are not sure of her eye color at this point, gray, blue, green? hazel? From what I have read, their eye color can change for years to come, so hopefully by the time she gets her drivers license they will have resolved the color change, LOL, uhhh, that scares me already.

Sam has ALMOST mastered rolling but enjoys the exersaucer the best and will stay in it for hours if we let him; his eyes are definitely brown and his hair is really coming in, I knew if I brushed it daily it would grow, at least 100 times right? His voice is starting to change when he laughs and does the baby gibberish, it's deeper, not so babyish and he still smiles when he sees Gracie, he just loves her and since we are so animal oriented it's makes my heart ache with joy.

Both are eating lots of diff. foods, latest is asparagus with baby red potato's and avocado is the staple food, goes great in my salads as well. What a perfect food. Pangea is just starting out with daily training besides the usual handling and is quite the teenager, lots of sass but a good heart under it all. Her first show is coming up in May, how exciting, I won't be showing her this time but this summer I'll be out there with my girl!

Oh yes, I forgot to post Easter pix, so here are a few ;p) and it also happened to be on daddy's B-day. Dennis had a great time with the kids and family; we gave him a custom belt from Pinnell's it had a silver handmade buckle, the date, his name and our names on the inside and he also got some Anthony Bourdain books and some yummy chocolates, wow ~ a dual blessed day! I thank the good lord every day for blessing me with such a loving & wonderful family.

SPRING IS HERE!!

Yesterday was our first grass cutting of 2009, it smelled so good and the daffodils and crocus flowers looked so colorful, ahhh Spring really is here ;p)) So nice to have daylight savings time, we get to spend more time outside and bedtime is a bit later but no big deal. We've never been too strict about it (or much else at this point) usually by 8 they are pretty much done for the day. Nia is still crawling but now pulling up or pulling down what she can reach; and the past few days she has started babbling long sentences instead of the single bahhh repeating; Sam is almost rolling, loves his piano and will sit for an hour if we let him. He's also started this very shrill squeal and my eardums have been achy for days. Del is great (gained 10lbs since last Oct.) and stands at about 54lbs, he sneaks the twins toys, sock, bibs or whatever he can find on the floor to the back of the house; he has finally found his match(s) and lays in the same room with them now, before he would run down the hallway, stop and look them and then bolt back to his bed. He's a curious guy but he really is such a baby like them and with the kindest heart ;p)
