Frenemies.  These two crack me up. A total love hate relationship.  Penny wants to love him like a little baby so bad, but considering he weighs as much as she does, he can take her down in one fell swoop.  Their loving hugs turn into wrestling matches in seconds...My babies...

Three. Last week the twins turned 3. As usual, Tripp weighs 5lbs more and is 3inches taller than his baby sis.  They got sleeping bags and blew out candles.  It was epic!

Haircut.  I've never been one of those moms who shyed away from cutting my kids hair. Maybe it's because I love a fresh haircut, I love how excited my kids get when they know there will be a change, and also because my kids have hair that grows super fast. So if they ever get a bad haircut, I know it'll be back to normal in couple months if not weeks.  I love Luci's latest transformation...

Ohio's looking better and better.

Bakers. When all else fails, we make cookies.  It might not be the best for the waistline, but it is best for the peace and happiness that it creates in my home. There is one rule to cookie making; you can not lick the spoon with the raw egg mixture.  As you can see, Penny has found a way around this...

Beauty. As I type this post, I can't help but think of the tragedy that struck Boston today.  I pray to God and thank him for the beauty that he's given me and my family.  I thank him everyday for the beautiful gifts that I wake up to and put to sleep every night...
