Happy 1st Birthday to our Sweetie Pies

We had a small birthday party for the twins with family this past Sunday.  It was a wonderful time and a big thank you to everyone for all the wonderful gifts, and most importantly all your love.  The kiddos got hand-made knitted hats and sweaters from grandma Lynda that are so adorable.  Thank you Lynda for the love you put into those outifts...we love them.  Auntie Jenn, Andraya, and Camryn got the kiddos a giant paly hut, build-a-bears, and adorable clothes.  We recieved many more gifts from the family so thank you all very much!!  We enjoyed our visit with Grandma Kay and Grandpa Bill, but they had to head back home today.  It's too bad because the babies were starting to get use to them.  I posted a bunch of photos and a couple videos from the past couple days.  Thanks Grandma Lynda for the adorable photos of Johnny and Shaine posted right below.

The Twins 1 year Check-Up & Shots

Yesterday was Johnny & Shaine's first birthday, but we didn't do much to celebrate because they had their one year check up which included 3 shots each, and a finger prick.  The visit went great with both babies being in great health and developing at a good rate.  Their pediatrician couldn't be more happy, and  the kiddos were in good spirits therefore gave  the doctor quite a few laughs.--That was until the nurse came in for shots...poor babies cried, but got over it quickly.  As of yesterday Johnny weighs 21lbs. 10oz., and is 28" long(2ft.4").  Shaine weighs 20lbs. 4oz., and is also 28" long.  Looks like Johnny gained some height, and Shaine gained some weight.  After the visit we grabbed a bite to eat with my parents at Red Robin, then headed home to put the babies to bed.

JOHNNY'S WALKING!!!! JOHNNY'S WALKING!!!

Johnny is officially walking!!!!!!  Yesterday while I was talking to Mike on the Phone I saw Johnny take a couple steps, but he decided to wait until my parents showed up from California to take more steps on his own and show off!!!  I have a couple videos that I will post later.   Sorry Shaine, but Johnny is ahead of you on this one.  Up until yesterday Shaine has done everything first from lifting her head, rolling over, and crawling, but now it's Johnny's turn to shine.  We know she'll be right behind him as soon she realizes he's moving faster than her.  Way to go son!!!!
