Independence

The boys are becoming more and more independent. This is hard for me because it means they will get messy. But I have come to realize that they do need to learn skills and the only way of learning is trying. So... here are their latest accomplishments:

I was sweeping the other day and they wanted to give it a shot:

The other night Cooper wanted to feed himself spaghetti. He was doing pretty good.

And this afternoon the boys would not let me spoon feed them their Cream of Wheat. They insisted on doing it themselves. I'm pretty sure more got on their bibs and trays than in their tummies. But they were happy.

Guesses

If anyone wants to guess vera's weight, length, date and time of birth, comment here. My c section is scheduled for 7:30am on thursday, so you should be able to get pretty close on that one ;)

Kisses from Ayla

Ayla had just given me a whole bunch of big sloppy "kisses," and luckily I was able to get a couple more on camera :) Love this girl. Can't believe she's only going to be my "baby" for a couple more days!
