20 Months and Cuter by the Day!

We often call Cole a miracle. Truly that is what he is. Cole has touched so many lives and we think is the reason that we have our twins as well. He is my little man. I call Cole my little man, because he is such a big boy. Cole is just plain and simple BUILT. For those of you that know us or have followed our blog know about Cole's sleeping problems. Cole since the time he was little has been an absolute terriable sleeper. He wakes up constantly throughout the night, and when I mean constantly I mean some nights every 20 or so minutes. After seeing multiple doctors up at Primary and the University of Utah hospitals we were able to set up a date to get Cole's surgery. Cole got surgery earlier today and has done really well. He got his tonsils out, as well as his adnoids out, fiberoptic bronchoscopy, esophagosccopy, gastroscopy, duodensocopy as well. He has done amazing. He is drinking and even has had two popsicles. We love our little buddy, and he is such an amazing little boy. He keeps us on our toes and is beyond smart.


Cole is so big! He is hilarious. Some of his favorite songs to sing is "boom boom, pow" "cop car" "baby, baby, baby" by justin bibier.

This little perfect face is quite the trouble maker. When you catch Cole doing something naughty or getting into trouble and you walk in, he quickly removes his hands and says "hi" Also when he wants to do something naughty that he knows I would not let him do he will say "bye mom"

Cole has loved being outside this summer and loves to go to lagoon. Here him and Ty are fighting over the bell on the boat, "who's kids are those, ash?" When he wants to go to the park he says "i wanna good job". He says that because Dave took him to the park and whenever he would go down the slide dave would say "good job Cole" so he now associates "good job" to the slide at the park. He also will say "i wanna you to push" which means he wants to go to the pakr and swing. He even knows the motion on how to push someone in the swing. Loves to swim as well. NO FEAR!


I took Cole to Lagoon one day and this might have been the 9th or 10th time we rode the train. What can I say this kid LOVES trains.

Cole has learned the dance to "fat guy in a little coat" from Tommy Boy and loves to have mommy and daddy sing and do the dance with him. He laughs so hard. We also have developed quite the little leader. He loves us to copy him and gets a kick out of finding new things for us to copy him on. He also loves to look at the stars and moon and can even find the moon during the day. He says he wants to "throw ball to moon" He is quite optimistic and has big goals!

Ty loves his cousins and constantly asks for "ty, books and jaz"

Cole answers now with a "uh-huh" instaed of "yesh" He also wants to hold the girls on a regular basis and enjoys making them laugh. If you ask COle what time it is he will answer with a "10 o'clock." Always wants his mommy and daddy to kiss. And wants to make sure Paisley jumps with him in the jumper. Always wants to take your "hand" to take you to get something, and still loves to read books every night.

Cole lost all of his hair this month by getting his first buzz. Cole has also discovered at much TOO young age on how to blame things on his defenseless little sister, yes SISTER, poor Paisley. I asked Cole one day after he had taken out all of the full wet wipes out of the container who had done that? He simply replied with "Pais did" EXCUSE ME? my little 18 month old. I started laughing out loud as well as he did! He thought he was quite smart as well. Another occasion I was giving Cole his nightime medicine and he simply replied "no, Paisley" He wanted Paisley to have it. This kid cracks me up.

Handsome man. Cole also is very independent and loves to do everything by himself. His most recent find that he loves to do by himself is drink mama's baba with no help(he has loved this from much to young of an age....whoops!). Cole points to the floor on where he wants my 44 oz Coke and says mama's baba. And then when i comply he simply says Thank you. When i go to get a taste he keeps his eye on the drink and if I have it for too long he simply just asks if you will put it back. What can I say I am a proud mama of a Coke addict! :)

3 Babies in a Tub

9 Months and MOBILE!

My girls turned 9 months! O how time flies. I cannot believe my little twinners are so big!

My girls are growing up so fast and truly are getting more fun every single day. They love to be near each other and love to be with their favorite person, which would be their big brother Cole.

We have loved going to the park and love being outside with all the nice weather, one thing for sure is the girls do not like grass. When their foot or leg gets on the grass they lift up their leg so they don't have to feel it.

Little sweet, sensitive Presley. We took Presley at nine months and here are her stats:
22.2 lbs 93%
27.5 in 47%
17.9 in 86% in head.
Pres and Pais have always been at the most 3 oz apart in weight, but Paisley crawls everywhere and so Pres had her by a lb. Presley is so sweet and continues to love to be held. She crawled only a couple hours after Paisley started but decided that she didn't like it much and would much rather be held. She will get to where she needs but does not like to crawl around much. Presley loves to be with her sister and brother. When Paisley crawls away from Pres, presley will cry until you move her next to Pais. Presley loves to dance and when anytime of music comes on she will move her tummy to the beat. She loves to swim and outlasts Pais in the pool every single time. She gets around the pool in her tube by once again doing her fabulous dance move. She is our senstive girl and if you say no she will start to cry hysterically. She also moves her head side to side to tell you no. She constantly is laughing at Cole just to get some sort of attention from him. If Cole looks at her she will laugh so hard. When she gets frustrated at Paisley for stealing her toys she will actually try to bite her. She smacks her lips together and thinks she is quite big for doing so. O how we love our Pres.

Pres

Good pictures at our house are hard to come by.

Pres left, Pais right.

All girly girls. They are the best, happiest babies. I am so lucky to have had the best 3 kids a mom could of asked for. Truly they are all the happiest little kids ever.

Cole LOVES his sisters. This is such a typical Paisley look. She loves him but is kind of wondering what he is doing. If this was Presley, she would be laughing and trying to kiss Cole.

Pres, Pais

Paisley is the what people would call, "Ideal baby". She sleeps 12 hours a night and even naps great during the day. She loves to eat ANYTHING, and is very mobile. She can pull herself up on ANYTHING. Here are Paizers stats
21.25 lbs 86%
27.5 in 47%
18.1 in 94% in head
Paisley got her first tooth this past month only 2 months to the day after presley got her two. She also started crawling. This day would forever change my life. She loves to splash in the bath and pool and thinks being in the pool is overrated. She climbs all over mommy when mom is anywhere near her. She plays with her tougne all the time and give 5, 5, 5. Paisley loves to be with her sister but is more independent. Paisley is so happy and continues to love to play toys. The girls loves to be with each other it has been so much to watch them interact with each other. It seems as though they are devlopiong their own little language to interact, which could quite possibly be the cutest thing i have ever heard. We are blessed to have them in our lives and even more blessed with the time we live in. Modern medicine is amazing and even though it is so hard to see our kids go through shots and immunizations, how thankful I am that we are able to get them for our kids. I would rather have my kids be uncomfortable for a couple of hours and maybe even a day from the shots then to have my kids be diagnosed with a disease that could eventually lead to death. We delay our immuzations at our house by about 3 months, but not a chance I would never not give them to my children. We truly are thankful and appreciate all the help we recieve from family.

With having twins, especially girl twins from what i have been told, the amount of attention we recieve when we go out even to the store is unreal, so you can only imagine what it was like in California. We had the girls picture taken by complete strangers while having their children stand next to them. We had several people tell us they need to be in commericials and other people telling us how terriable it would be to have twins. It was so hilarious. We love our kiddos.



Presley wore herself out in the jumper.

Love my little stinks.
