Adam's Third Haircut

Yes, he's only 11 months old, but Adam needs a haircut every 6 weeks (or less!).  Ashley had some entertaining commentary this time around.

the 'do

Why do they always use a spray?  Yuck!

Mom, have you seen how bald the barber is?  Is that going to happen to Adam?

Hey -- where's your hair?  Are you going to do that to me?

Adam, don't worry.  I'll watch him.

How much are you taking off the top?

Oh no!  I can't watch!  Mom moved the stroller!

Help!  Help!

It's OK Adam.  You still look good.

I'm doubtful.  And look at the expression on Daddy's face.

I like it!  Thanks!

And for those who want even more from the afternoon, here's a video of the event:

Happy Birthday Papa Marty!

About one month ago Papa Marty and his college buddies visited NH for a long weekend trip.  At the end of the weekend they stopped off to say hello to the citizens before departing for various destinations.  

Thanks to Guest Photographer Harris, we have some fantastic photos to share with Papa Marty today in honor of his birthday.  Happy Birthday!

Poolside

The citizens like to take a dip every now and again.

Toys without Noise

We own some toys without noise.  We are big fans of them.

Splish splash

Splish splash the citizens were takin' a bath
Long about a Saturday night, yeah
A rub a dub, just relaxin' in the tub
Thinkin' everythin' was alright

Well, they crawled out the tub
And put their feet in the air
Daddy wrapped the towel around them 

And then Mommy combed their hair.

There was a-splishin' and a-splashin' 
Reelin' with the feelin' 
Movin' and a-groovin' 
Rockin' and a-rollin', yeah, yeah

Month Eleven

Adam and Ashley are 11 months old!  Today was bittersweet.  It was the last time we attended the JF&CS Mothers of Twins, Triplets and More Group facilitated by Miss Terry.  Now that the citizens are crawling and interested in poking the other babies' eyes out more than they are interested in their toys, it was time to say goodbye.  Thanks to Miss Terry and the other mommies in the group (both graduates and current attendees), we learned more about twins, families, and life than we ever would have imagined.  We'll miss everyone!

Photos below are from this morning's photo shoot.  MLM sends a big thank you to Ana.  Without her help, the citizens certainly would have crawled off of the couch in two different directions at once while MLM tried to take photos.

Look at me.  I'm going to hold two bears at once.

Uh-uh!  Ashley Bear is coming with me.

Mommy tried to take a photo of us like we're 1 month old.  Hahahaha!

Kisses for Adam Bear.

OK Ashley.  I'm going to get the bears lined up for the photo.

Adam, don't look now, but I see another bear coming.

Let's skeedaddle!  We're finished with photos.

Not so fast, citizens.  Still haven't seen one of the two of you smiling at the camera at the same time!

Well Mommy, according to my notes, we're supposed to be done by now.

"I'm starting to see spots." -- Ashley   "That's why I don't look at the camera." -- Adam

Finally!  A photo to be proud of.

Dancing?

Is Ashley dancing?  We should have her try out for Dancing with the Stars.

Oh My!

The citizens have learned theatrics.

Just A Sip Please

It was hot.  The water was cool.  Guest videographer Camie documented the citizens drinking from a cup.  What fun!

Vocalization

Ashley and Adam like to hear the sound of their own voice.  MLM isn't sure if she's translating correctly -- it's kinda like talking to dolphins and hoping that you're not insulting them.

Heeeeeeere's Adam!

Walking with Ana!
