SIX
I know I can't believe it but my babies are 6. It went so fast, I still think of them as 4 and I tell they are 4 all the time but they just aren't having it! They want to be big they wish they were 12 or older but mostly 12 because that is when I said they could have a cell phone so for now they wish they were 12. I wish they would stop growing, as a mom a lot of times you wish for moments to pass, certain stages and things like that but you also want time to stand still, so you can live those special moments over and over. When I think about everything that we went through to get them here and all the scary moments it brings tears to my eye's that they are here and they are mine. And they are me in every way, don't tell Scott I admitted to this but they are just as stubborn and hard headed and independent as I was. I always tell him they must have got it from his family but who am I kidding just ask my mom, she wouldn't even bat an eye before she would say yup! and since we are all so alike it makes for some butting of heads but I love them with all my heart!
Kinzie
The older sister by 48 whole seconds born at 5:55pm February 17th, 2004.
Kinzie is sweet but most likely will tell you "NO" if you ask her to do something, she never wants to go first and if she does it always shocks me. Kinzie loves to be with Halli, and would never try anything new unless Halli tries first, and if Halli likes it she will then attempt. Kinzie is very shy which surprises me, all though I was shy. But as a twin people/ str angers all always talking to them ans when they were little touching them which was a bit weird! I always thought this would make them very outgoing but it has made her more cautious. But she does love everyone, she has a big heart and always wants to think that everyone is apart of our family, so according to her we have a lot more then 5 people in our family... thank goodness I don't have to feed all those people! Some things Kinzie likes are... Music that is why they got an Ipod for there Birthday! She loves gymnastics and is so good at it, my girls are strong, such a Farnsworth trait( Scott was scrawny)this girl climbs on everything and can make it to the top of anything. And of course she loves all things girly but still loves to play in dirt, skateboard, and play cars.
Halli
Halli the baby of the family( till July) born at 5:56pm February 17th,2004.
Even though Halli followed in birth she has been the leader ever since, she is the "boss" Kinzie use to be OK with this but I think it is wearing on her.Halli also very sweet and in most cases if you ask her to do something she will say "YES' in this cute chipper voice but we do all have our bad days or moments more like it in this house. Halli is so full of life she likes to be busy like her mom and a day is never finished without a dessert, that is her rule. She is always asking what is for dessert? I never fix dessert so I always say go find something, which is usually a granola bar or vanilla ice cream for this one.Halli also loves everyone and never wants to leave anyone out. Things Halli loves of course Music she can memorize any song she always wants the radio on and it can never be loud enough! She loves to sing the primary songs another reason we opted for the IPOD we were all getting sick of the Primary songs for 2010!( Love them but 24/7, is too much!)Halli to loves Gymnastics and is a crazy woman when it comes to her cart wheels and round offs she does them so fast she usually has to do 2 at a time because she can't slow down. Halli loves to play any kind of pretend play and can find those 2 playing pretend with 2 sticks(the sticks being people)and just having a grand old time.Halli to loves all girl things but don't mistake her for a little sissy she can play with the big boys too... and still loves bugs!
The big Party
The girls wanted a tea party for there birthday party this year, so we threw a shabby tea party it was so fun oh and I could have done so much more but we did have a budget, dang! I couldn't find the tea sets I wanted so I ordered these espresso cups which worked great except they had red and no pink but we made do.
We got all the girls a feather boa and some pearl necklaces and rings. We had little tea sandwiches with our tea( apple juice) we drank it with or pinkies up and had little fruit kabobs and little doughnuts and tiny little cookies, so fun. I also made the girls pink tutu's to wear on there special day, I wanted to make them for all the girls but time and money weren't there, it would have been so cute! We had a pinata( not very tea partyish but that's what the girls wanted. And wow some can swing I almost lost a vital girl part on the front of me if you know what I mean, it was numb for a while!Haha it was funny I just laughed.
