Sunday dinner.....

Can you say leftovers????? Today when Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Lenny come over for Sunday dinner we will be dinning on leftovers!!!

I am starting to plan grandma's birthday party. I am thinking flowers, flowers, flowers and candles. I will be making some roasts, and veggies. Glenda will bring a salad and Martha will make some rice. Shrimp platter and a bread bowl for dips will be the appetizers!!! I am also planning a champagne toast. I want to buy the same champagne from our wedding, everyone loved it!

The babies are taking their morning naps and I am off to fold some laundry.......

cutie pies!!!

Jacob is almost ready for his two top teeth to pop! You can see them, they are right there and will come through any day now....He is learning so many things, when you say where is the light? He looks up at the light. I tell him.."Grandpa is coming....grandpa is coming.." and he says papapapap. And of course he always says....mamamamama, that is his favorite word!

Danica has her two teeth on top, they are huge!!! She is learning so much as well!! If you ask her, "Do you want me to read you a book?" She looks right over at the book basket. Clap hands and wave bye-bye! She even shares her pacifier with her daddy....what a good girl she is! She is also exploring a lot lately since she has become so mobile.

Jacob clap hands....

everything Jacob does is so sweet and gentle, here is is clapping his hands.
