I love my dog!

Kenzie has come to really love her dog.  She'll watch her every move.  This is before bed, Kenzie wishing mad die a good night.

Growing up too fast!

A few of our firsts lately...
Khloe is now eating cereal...Kenzie isn't quite as impressed

Our first Christmas..."Hey Khloe, which ornament should we pull off first?"

They are also trying to start holding their own bottles, as you can see, it doesn't work to well yet.

 I can't believe how big they are getting, 5 months tomorrow!!!

6 days till Christmas...

We have been having a lot of fun over here the last few days.  The girls are still sleeping great at night, usually 10-12 hours.  However, during the day, we've lost our nap time.  Neither of them really enjoy sleeping during nap time.  Today I tried putting them down on their tummies and they both insisted on laying face first in their mattress.  Needless to say, naps lasted all of 10 minutes.  So, I dressed them up to take some Christmas pictures.

 i just love that smile!

 over the last week or so the dog has become so much more interesting than me 

 and we grab at EVERYTHING!

up to no good :)

T'was the night before...

T'was the night before Wednesday and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even madison.  The girls were all snuggled with blankets and farm buddies...

 With visions of bubba's dancing in their heads. Little miss Kenzie with one sock all a miss settled in a for a long good nights nap...to be continued.

We were concerned today that mom might be a little lonely today.  Not that she has much to do, like get ready for the Christmas party tonight or clean or get laundry done.  But we thought that if we slept too long during our naps, she might start crying.  So we decided to wake up early to play with her.

The dog was not quite as thrilled, it definitely cut into her one-on-one time ;)

Thanks Grandma!

Grandma, I just wanted you to know that I love my new sleepers!  They have lots of room for my toes and are super soft!  Hope to see you soon.  Love Khloe

Finally captured!

So I know Kenzie had rolled over once before...I just missed it.  So this morning, I put her and Khloe on their tummy's for some tummy time.  I said bye to Joe and just as I was walking back into the family room, I saw legs flip.  Missed it again!  So I set up my video camera, put her back on her tummy and walked away.  She did it again!  Yes, I had captured it.  I ran my video camera to my computer, only to find out it had died.  In the end, we captured a grainy, happy 4 month old rolling over on our regular camera.  She cheers herself on in the beginning and about 50 seconds in, she does her magic!

Here is the aftermath...she is so excited!

Happy Thanksgiving

A lot has happened in the past year.  It was about this time that Joe and I were in the beginning stages of our IVF journey.  Dr. Young called me Thanksgiving morning to tell me that my levels had dropped and they were going to monitor them closely over the next 48 hours.  If they didn't go up, we'd have to cancel our procedure.  I cried...and prayed.  Why I doubt the one that knows my next step, I should know better.  Happy Thanksgiving!  Love, Joe & Molli, Khloe & Mackenzie

Not only were we blessed this past year, but our extended family grew by 5 over 2013.  I know, I know, only 1 is looking at the camera.  But let's see you try and get 5 infants looking in one direction.

Lena and Jax trying to find out why Khloe was crying.

(L to R)Witt is 3 weeks old, Lena is 9 months, Jax is 7 months and KK are 4 months

Brrr!

Monday morning after the storm...we called it quits and headed for some heat.

Khloe's little trick

Khloe is definitely a wiggle worm.  Her latest trick is getting out of her bouncy seat and swing...don't worry, Joe was right next to her.

That was hard work!

New toys!

This past weekend our power went out...no fun.  It wouldn't have been so bad, but we have a well, meaning we have no water :(  So we packed up the girls and headed for my grandma's condo.  It had heat and water and just happens to be a storage unit for my cousins and siblings baby "extras".  We found 2 jumparoos!!!  So excited!  Here's Khloe enjoying her new toy.

Look!  I made it light up!

Kenzie is battling the onset of a cold...lots of naps :)

Not ready for this!

Just a short little post...so I put Kenzie on her tummy and went to get Khloe out of her crib.  When I got back, she was on her back!??!  What in the world, my girls are growing up.  I'll try and get it on video for you.  Happy Friday!

It's snowing dance

Kenzie loves having her diapers changed...well, let's just say she loves having her clothes off in general.

A few of our favorite things...

kicking our legs

mirrors

our activity mat...and sometimes napping under it

being naked!!! (we call it air time :)

cuddling up when baths are complete...we're still working on enjoying the actual bath

relaxing with daddy

Life is busy...but we find time to relax!

We are starting to get a little bit of a schedule down.  The girls usually get up between 6-7am.  I will try and get a video of our mornings for you.  If they are both awake, they just talk away in their crib.  I love happy babies!  Plus, they are only waking once each during the night...yay girls!!  That leaves for one very happy and somewhat rested mama.  They have also started taking a morning nap around 10:30am.  However, if we miss the morning nap, they don't usually nap the rest of the day.  That's when things like this happen:

 Playing under the activity mat...

 One down for the count...Khloe is still trying to hold on...

 The eyes are getting very heavy!

And...they're out!  They may not look alike, but sure sleep the same.

Never too early...

I just love being a mom!  But before these beautiful girls, I was a teacher and I'll always hold teaching dear to my heart.  So, I start them early!  Joe thinks I'm a little crazy when I read to them, but it's so good for them.  Never to young to learn how fun books can be!

Competing with the noise from the tv

Peekaboo!
