16 Months

My babies are getting so big. Literally, they are growing taller everyday. Maddox is a little string bean. She is long and thin. Lukas is very tall, but he is built. Seriously, he looks like a mini-body builder and he is solid. He has been wearing a 2T for a couple of months now.

They both love being outside and we spend a majority of our day playing outside with bubbles, water, going on strolls etc. We recently purchased a new jogging stroller and our babies love it. They recline whilst getting jogged around the neighborhood. I also purchased our family a season pass to the Museum of Science & History that has a Children's Museum inside and they love it!

We also are in the middle of swimming lessons and they really enjoy it too. They can both hold their breath under water for 4 to 5 seconds and they will jump off the side of the pool into us, blow bubbles, and hold their selves above water on the side of the pool.

We took them to the dentist for the first time and the dentist said their teeth and gums looked great. We will take them back at their two year appointment. They still LOVE having their teeth brushed. They open their mouths really wide and go "UHHHHHHHH" while we are brushing their teeth.

Right now, they love to test their limits. If we tell Lukas not to do something, Maddox runs over and does the same thing. I think she just wants to see if the answer is No for her as well. Little stinker. We have been doing "time-out" as a form of punishment and it works really well. They actually sit in time-out for one minute and give hugs and love when it is over.

They jibber jabber all the time! We definitely think that they have been doing a little bit of "twin talk". Sometimes when Lukas is crying, Maddox will walk over and jabber to him. He has also jabbered to her and she will bring him something (a sippy or a toy).





Lukas has started a yelling phase. I never lived when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, but I'm pretty sure his yell sounds exactly like a pterodactyl. He loves to yell/screech in stores to get people's attention, whilst they look at me like my child is having a minor conniption. He's happy..no really..HE'S HAPPY!!!



That is all that is happening in our world. WE are traveling to Arkansas to visit my Papaw for Easter so say a quick prayer for safe travels!
