The Twins Turn 2!!

Has it really been 2 years already?? Wow! The twins are growing so fast and they are such little sponges right now. Luci is a parrot and will repeat everything you say. She is already trying to count to 10 and does pretty well. Eli's speech has really blossomed as well. His favorite word is "helicopter". Luci is now into dolls and dressing up and Eli is into trains, trucks, helicopters, and guns. It's been fascinating to watch them grow. We don't push "boy" "girl" stuff on them but yet they've each gravitated toward boy and girl things on their own. Their actual birthday was during the week and daddy had to fly at night so I took them to McDonald's and we got an ice cream cone and then went to Walmart and picked out a small toy. Then last Saturday we had a birthday party for them. Our closest friends came with their kids. We all had lunch, ate Elmo cupcakes (Hailey and I each got some cupcake in the face!), and then watched the twins open their presents. Luci got a baby doll stroller, a purse, and a doll and Eli got an Elmo backpack and a travel Thomas train set from Grandma and Grandpa Workman. Then they got money from Aunt Gail and Uncle Lance, Memere and Pepere Raymond, and Mataunte Weezie. Mataunte Nancy got them super cute jammies. Luci also got a baby doll, tea set, coloring books, and clothes. Eli got a Thomas train, Elmo, clothes, coloring books, blocks, and a tool belt. We got them the Jumpolene (a toddler inflatable trampoline) and some other things. They scored big time! I had to clean out the old to make room for the new!

Yay! We love tea sets!
