On to the next stage...

I'm happy to announce that Justin & Lara have their Stage 2 carseats in place and they are ready to ride facing forward! This is very exciting for me...amazing what excites me these days. Daddy tested the new carseats and I think the kids love them! Can you tell?

Family Time

We had such a good time with Grandpa B. and Aunt Denise. We were sad to say goodbye. It's hard to live so far away from family. Justin & Lara certainly enjoyed their time with their Grandpa and Aunt. The weather was perfect (hot) but perfect. Everyone got to enjoy pool time everyday. We miss you and can't wait for the next visit!

Happy 1st Birthday to my Angels!!

Happy Birthday to my sweet babies. I can't believe how the year has flown by!

What an exciting day for Justin & Lara. They wake up to their first surprise which is Grandpa Buczek & Aunt Denise being here! After breakfast and opening presents we all headed over to their daycare where they enjoyed pizza, cupcakes and a fun puppet show. A special Thank You goes to the Cutter Family for making Justin & Lara's first Birthday a blast!

If Justin & Lara only knew how much they were loved and adored!! Thank you so much to everyone who made their first birthday so special!

Visit from Uncle Jason

Justin & Lara got to meet their Uncle Jason for the first time last weekend! We really enjoyed the time we got to spend with him. The night he arrived we all enjoyed a nice steak & shrimp dinner (compliments to Russ) with cocktails. We had a good time!

On Sunday Jason & I took the kids to Charleston for a day trip. It was Jason's first time in Charleston. It was a bit hot, but we still were able to enjoy the beauty of Charleston. Unfortunately Russ had guard drill and missed the day in Charleston, but we made up for it that night with a bbq.

It was a good time and we all can't wait to see Jason again. After Jason left us he started a 6 week cross country road trip. We all wish Jason a safe and happy trip! Thank goodness for Facebook so we can keep up with him and his updates.

Our first 4th of July

It was so nice to spend three days with my family. We need more three day weekends! Who said weekends only have to be 2 days anyway?!

Look what we have here!

A little busy here these days...

Justin is teaching Lara all sorts of new tricks! She follows her brother's lead which is so fun to watch. I really need to buy the Monkey See, Monkey Do shirts for them!! Justin is a little fast for her though, but she eventually catches up. Constant entertainment at the Hiller house these days!

Summer Fun

Unfortunately, we weren't able to enjoy our Memorial Day weekend being that the whole family was sick. I couldn't wait for all of us to get better to get outside and enjoy the sun and pool. AND our camera broke and I went through camera withdrawals for almost 2 weeks! I made up for it yesterday when we were in the pool.

Little Miss Lara has us all fooled. She can get around very well. She scoots on her belly and makes her way through the house just fine. The other morning when I was getting Justin ready for daycare, Lara decided to get into the dog food and had a big smile on her face as she was eating it. Her other favorite place is the bathroom where she gets on the scale.

Justin is anxious to get up on his feet and start walking which terrifies me. Is it possible for a child to run/crawl...seems to be what Justin does. He is fast on those knees!!

Question of the week: My Doctor asked me "have you been feeling tired lately". Oh no Doc...I'm well rested and FULL of energy! Yes, she knows I'm a mother of twins.
