Thanksgiving with many Blessings!

This Thanksgiving we spent counting our many blessings.

The holiday started out with the Thanksgiving Feast at Landen's school. Wayne and I went and ate lunch with him before checking him out and leaving town. He was so excited to have us join him and show us off to all his friends:)

It was great to see many family members and enjoy relaxing visits.

Here are the girls with Grandma and Grandpa Boone. Grandma gave them new baby dolls. What great memories!

Kailyn with Aunt Pam! Kinley with Aunt Vicki! And we even got to meet baby Tatum:)

On Friday after Thanksgiving, we were off to Lafayette to stay with our best friends......oh so fun!

Spoiled rotten by Grandmother!!!!!


We miss them so very much! Wish we still lived near Lafayette. Can you tell we were not wanting to say goodbye.

Family Pictures 2009

We finally had our first family photo session with all five of our precious kids. I was determined to send out Christmas cards this year! Bryant came in from college and stayed the night with us. We always love when he comes to visit. This photographer had her work cut out for her with so many in the pictures, but overall, I was very very pleased. As you can tell, I couldn't decide which pictures to post, so I put alot on here. I hope you enjoy them as much as we have. Wayne and I feel truely blessed to have our health as well as 5 health children. Here are the ages of our crew: Bryant 22, Stephen 15, Landen 7, and Kinley & Kailyn 12 months. I will just let you count our gray hair to estimate our ages.......lol:)

Happy Birthday Little Angels!

Well, we have all made it one year. What an incredible journey we have had so far. They started out so sweet and little and it is absolutely amazing how fast they grow the first year. On their actual birthday, we hosted a Birthday Playgroup at our house with all our "twin friends"! They had so much fun! There were 5 other sets of twins that attended. Gran & Grandpa came for the day to help us out:) Two of my very dear friends gave the girls tutu's that were perfect for the occasion.

Growth updated:
Kinley Renee: weighs 22 lbs, 29.5 inches long and is in the 50-75% size range
Kailyn Grace: weighs 22.9 lbs, 29.5 inches long and is in the 75-90% size range

Milestones:
Both girls are speed crawlers (in different directions most of the time) and are even taking steps everytime they pull up. Each one has taken up to 10 steps before falling. We are so proud and anxious for them to become full time walkers. Momma's back is starting to hurt!
They both say about 6 word: Momma, Dada, Bubba, Hi, ByeBye, and UaOh and they will mock anything that you do.

We are so very proud of them, thanks for letting us share their successes with you!

Austin at almost a year old

We went to Austin to attend Little Princess Camryn's 4th birthday party and had so much fun with our special friends. The girls loved playing with Camryn and digging in all her stuff and crawling around everywhere at her gymnastics party. So much fun:)

I would have to say that traveling at this stage is a little challenging. Keeping an eye on both of them so they wouldn't ruin anything or our welcome along with short naps and whining is alot. They loved playing outside and yes.....they ate grass! A little roughage never hurt anyone before:) Also, a note to myself......never leave home without the double stroller again! Make it fit in the car somehow, someway!

Don't they all look so cute in their matching outfits? Thanks Aunt Stephanie!!!!!!

All the kids in the "twin pen"!

Halloween 2009

Well, the girls were little LSU cheerlearders. I'm letting it slide just this one year. From here on out, they will be little Aggies. Wayne has the boys LSU brainwashed, but he's not getting the girls! LOL Daddy was so proud to push them around the neighborhood before the LSU game came on tv. At the end of the night, lots of candy and tired kids. Success:)

Gran & Grandpa came for the day to enjoy all the excitement. (and chaos)

Landen wanted to be something scary for the first time. So he chose to be a vampire. We painted his face and sprayed his hair black and he thought he looked great. At the end of the night, while washing it all off, I asked him how he liked being something that requires face painting and he said, "no so much!" Next year he doesn't want to have face paint or a mask. We'll see what happens!

Our little LSU football player boyfriend Matthew! We miss him!
