Hi, I'm Mama Soup. I am the home manager for this crazy clan and I have made it my personal mission to record, here on this blog, our attempts at simplifying our life. I am usually wearing an apron and either cooking up some treat or thinking about what I can cook. I also love to paint, jog and drink hot tea. Welcome and thanks for visiting.

Great day with the twins

Nathan took Jonah with him to the farm and I had a wonderful day with the twins. I know this will be hard to imagine, but it reminded me of when I didn't have kids. I got my morning coffee, cleaned the kitchen (although there was some screaming) and headed out to Target. We did the Easter shopping, the twins didn't fuss a bit, and then came home to prep dinner. Twins were asleep by 6 pm and I had a glass of wine and read the paper on the back porch.

Currently, the kitchen is clean, all toys picked up and laundry done. What exactly am I saying here? I don't think it's that twins are easy, but rather toddlers are NOT!!!! Yes, I know, I'm in for it in about 18 months. Although, I must say that Jonah has been excellent training and I should have a better idea of what I'm getting into before it smacks me in the face. I love you Jonah.

So, here are some pictures from today.

They got some of those little dissolving treats today that they mush up with their gums and then get them stuck to their clothes. It was the first time they had these and they both loved them. Notice Bebe is actually cross-eyed trying to look at her treat while eating it.



Here they are on the move, kinda. Elias just started doing this. He can not get in this position himself, but if you place him there he can stand for a long time, even taking his hands off and back on.




Bebe: "You show off, try to push me now!"




Bebe: "Pretty sure we didn't go anywhere. What is the point of this again?"




This was Elias after breakfast. It was hard work to steal Bebe's sippy cup.
