So.... I know that I am horrible at this whole blog thing, but I have a good excuse this time. My husband stole my computer. Neil has started his own business called Bryce Media. He took our computer until the company can afford to buy its own. So far it is going well and he has quite a bit of business for just starting out. He is much happier being his own boss and not having to punch the time clock. Although, I think he is working more hours then he did before. However, for the time being it is a little hard to post pics so for now you get a verbal description and hopefully I can get pics later this week.
As for me. I am continuing to work at the hospital which is a blessing for now while our income is more sporadic. We are trying to put in the back yard in our home. Which I have decided if we ever buy another house, I am going to just buy one that has everything done because me and Neil aren't the best "do it yourselfers" in the world.
I continue to run daily but I did give up yoga since it is impossible to do the poses while 2 kids are climbing all over you.
The twins are growing everyday. Haley is all over the place. She pulls herself up to furniture and walks along it. She has decided the stairs are her next big challenge. We got the gate installed just in time. She is a little princess and poses with a big smile anytime the camera is pulled out. She wants to explore the world and goes nonstop She averages 2-3 thirty minute naps per day which pretty much gives me no time to myself but somehow she is very happy on no sleep. She got her bottom teeth in which are adorable when she smiles.
Jackson is more thoughtful and a little less active although he is pulling himself up to furniture. He is very sweet and loves to laugh at everything. He loves to go swimming and thinks he is a big tough guy because he dunks his head in the water and splashes really big. He loves our aquarium and will sit and watch the fish forever. He is definantly a water baby. He already loves to play catch which consists of trying to pick up the ball dad rolls to him and the throwing it (which is really just him dropping it) back to dad.
The funnest thing is to watch the interaction between the two. At 8 months they already tease and torture each other. Jackson is not afraid to tackle his sister and vice versa to get the toy they want. Today I heard haley screaming her lungs out and went into find Jackson had backed her into a corner to try and get her binky and she was holding onto it for dear life and he thought it was hilarious. They are also very sweet with other and often have laughing contests with each other in their high chairs.
My sister-in-law and her family moved into the basement apartment in our house. It is so fun to have them around but gets quite noisy when all 3 of our babies have tantrums at the same time. I love having her girls around although I am not quite sure how to play with little girls....I am more accustomed to just having my nephews around that want to play tackle and other violent sports.
Oops time to go do some work. I will post pics later.
