still here
it's been awhile since my last update - i guess the world of blogging is the first thing to go when my world gets busy. well, that and i just finally recharged the camera batteries, which is my usual method of posting.
pictures to come soon.
the boys are 15 months-old today. i enjoy watching them grow and learn. just the other day nap time had rolled around and i said, "ok boys it's nap time" and they both grabbed their nuks and headed for the gate at the bottom of the stairs. i followed them, opened the gate and watched them climb to the top of the stairs. "head to your room", i instructed and sure enough they rounded the corner into their room. i stood amazed watching them both walk over to the sound machine and turn the volume on. i picked them up, placed them in their cribs, gave them a kiss and that was that. we've continued that routine ever since. i think they feel like big boys putting themselves to bed.
addison, in particular, loves to read. he'll bring me books and climb into my lap to flip through pages and point at things. gabriel loves to play peek-a-boo around large pieces of furniture. they chase each other around the coffe table. they LOVE to dance. they climb on top of each other and laugh hysterically - it looks like they're wrestling but i think they're just tickling each other. did i mention that when they dance their cheeks jiggle?
that's all for now, but hopefully pictures will follow soon.

turning 29
i've never actually felt the shift in years before but this year something is different...
1. my body is sore (from multiple games of mud volleyball at the cox's) and i'm choosing to believe it's due to the passing of the year's and not a sign that i'm horrificly out of shape.
2. i can't sleep. this morning i was awake at 3:30. i tossed and i turned and decided i must be awake for a reason so i spent the time praying for my family.
3. i'm hearing things that don't exist. while i lay awake in bed in the wee hours of this morning i was convinced i heard a knock on our front door followed shortly after by some other sound. then, through the monitor i could hear one of the babies stir so i decided we needed to investigate. it was 4am when i gave kevin a gentle nudge and whispered the words, "i heard something". with cell phones in hand we quietly walked through each room of the house starting on the top floor and working our way down. there was nothing, thankfully!
so with the start of this 29th year all i can say is something is different... my body hurts, i can't sleep, and i'm hearing things... but i'm embracing it. get ready lor and d - it's your turn :)
