Double fun!

Twins = double the work, yes, but also double the FUN!


The babies are enjoying playing with their older 3 siblings more and more each day. And the older 3 really do think they are the greatest (except when the babies mess up their toys :D). Aria and Nina keep saying that next time, they want '6' babies! (Whew! Not sure about that one, girls!) Now that the babies are a bit older, the older 3 are a big help to me by helping to keep them entertained. Micah will faithfully bring them a little car or truck to play with, and Nina and Aria enjoy making them laugh. I love watching all 5 of them playing together (minus the occasional fight!), and it allows me to get the dishes washed or laundry hung out.




Our two baby girls, while looking similar, definitely have two different personalities! It is so fun to see! At this point in time, our Hanna is the 'go-getter'. She loves to be where the action is, and wants to know what is happening! She cannot keep still, and just loves to explore. Aria and Nina have nicknamed her "the Grabber", which fits her well. She grabs at anything and everything within reach. At the same time, our Heidi is more 'laid-back' (at least at this time in her life). She is content just sitting back and watching what is going on around her. She also enjoys exploring her little world, yet does it in a more calm and quieter way. She is not so easily distracted as her twin. While Hanna tends to squeal and scream, Heidi will utter syllables, like "mamama", and "bababa". They are both so precious.

While our Hanna is 'crawling' everywhere...


and getting into everything...



and doing acrobatic stunts...


little Heidi is content just sitting in my arms and watching the world move around her...


...which I absolutely do not mind. :)


We sure do love our twin baby girls! We had no idea twins could be so much fun!
