Spring Update!

Posted in home by KT
May 31 2010

In lieu of lots of little updates, here is one huge one. Lots of photos, lots of news. Feel free to laugh at the completely random outfits the kids are wearing – one day its 50 degrees, and two days later it was 90. Got to love the midwest for its completely random weather! Also – got to love cousin Laurie, without whom, our kids would be naked. One of the most humbling things about having children is how much help you both need, and receive, and we are so grateful for our village! Grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins – you keep our sparrows clothed, (and adorable), decorate their room, wrap them in cute jackets, sew them bears, and made the soft quilts they sleep under every night. And we are so grateful!

But you are not here for our sloppy, late-night rambling. So, without further adieu… the updates! Everyone is impossibly tall, and super skinny. M is talking now, G doesn’t stop talking, and Daddy really, really needs a cocktail and a day off. Best of luck with both of those, Daddy!

Can our tiny little delicate babies actually be turning 2 next month? Impossible! But its true. We are working on their birthday present (making them a play kitchen – shhh – don’t tell them!) and humming “Sunrise, Sunset” under our breath every time we look at them. Its really true what they say about twins – every day is impossibly long, and every year flies by.

And now… on to the cute pictures!

Did they need to wear ponchos? Probably not. Do they LOVE wearing them? Oh, yes. Yes, indeed!

Crayons!

We love to colour! Crayons are a big hit, but taking away the crayons (due to eating them) is a tragedy of epic proportions.
