BUBBLES!!!

So our little guys are right on the edge of talking...we can just feel it! They both have said mamma and dadda for quite some time and periodically they seem to say another word. This week Nathan seems to repeat words for a day or so. This weekend, he decided to repeat "dirty" over and over but he will not repeat it now. Tonight he was repeating "bubbles". It is just too cute! Christopher has definitely developed his own language and he has decided he loves to sing. He just runs around the house (note: Christopher does not walk, he runs everywhere!) singing all the time. It is just too cute! I am sure he will also eventually start talking like crazy and then we will be longing for the quieter days :-) Aunt Amber and Uncle Brian are just about to become parents in mid April and I continue to warn them that their quiet days are numbered. What is funny is that when the boys are not in the house for some strange reason the house is WAY TOO QUIET now. I love the laughter and the stomping of little feet through the house. Life is just perfect with these little guys.

The boys have now officially destroyed their first indoor tent. The poor tent was taped so many times and finally became a teepee tent vs a dome tent. We continued to bring it back to life compliments of electrical tape since the boys would just give us the most pitiful expression when the tent was laying flat on the ground after another beating from them tackeling each other inside and slamming the tent onto the floor while they roll around in it. The sad, long faces also led us down the path of buying a new and hopefully studier version of this tent. We put it up this evening after they went to bed so we are hoping this tent will survive for a few extra months. Time will tell.

The boys are now swimming in the tub and blowing bubbles in the tub. It is just so amazing how they figure things out. We sure did not teach them how to swim on their bellies but they are really mastering it. Now if the weather ever decides to warm up we can see how they do in the pool.

It looks like Will is working on posting pictures right beside me so they are coming soon!
Have a great week!
Love,
Robin, Will, Nathan, and Christopher
