Happy First Birthday Hudson and Emmy!

These kiddos have come a long way from the day they were born. It is amazing how fast a year can fly by with twins! Here are a few pictures from the day one year ago...







We had such a good time at their first birthday party. The weather turned out to be cloudy, which was perfect because it wasn't too hot. We were able to put tables and chairs outside for the festivities. We had a bubble machine going which the kids loved! Hudson and Emmy were so cute with their cakes. They weren't too sure what to do at first but the soon realized they could dig in. Here are some pictures from their day...

Emmy and Hudson are 11 Months Old


It's hard to believe that Emmy and Hudson are already 11 months old. These past few months have flown by. We are now preparing for the 1 year old party and it will be so much fun to get together with family and friends. They both have perfected the art of crawling and can get away from you pretty fast. Their favorite thing to do is find something they know they aren't supposed to have like an electrical cord or piece of paper and try to crawl away with it as fast as they can! It's pretty funny. I have to laugh. It seems like they are doing something new everyday. Here are some of the things they can do now.


At 11 months Emmy can:

*wave hello and goodbye

*mimic me if I am humming

*climb up and down a step (sometimes head first!)

*pull up on things although she sometimes has trouble figuring out how to get down

*loves books and will open them, turn the pages and make sounds as if she is reading them-so cute!

*plays peekaboo


At 11 months Hudson can:

*say "uh oh" baba, dada

*pull up and take a few steps forward

*hum to himself as he is falling asleep

*balance on almost anything --yesterday he was standing on top of his toy train set

*shake his head back and forth and dance if he is eating something he likes or hears music

*plays peek a boo


They both love to look out the window of the playroom to see their Daddy mowing the lawn. They laugh and giggle when they see him.
