The Terrific Two's ...

... or at least that's what I'm going to claim over these next 12 months at the Lairsey house :)

We've made it two WHOLE years with our precious twins and it just keeps getting better!   I just saw a picture on facebook of brand new triplets.  The picture was adorable!!  The kids were stuffed into stockings and laying so peacefully there on a bed... but that brought back TOUGH memories of SLEEPLESS nights and REALLY LONG days with screaming infants and feeding infants and holding infants and diapering infants ... and I'm SO glad that is not me right now!!  I am so content and happy with my 4, 2, 2, and almost 1 year old!

Back to the reason of the post :)  The girls enjoyed two birthday parties this year, and had a blast.  Minnie Mouse was the theme (because that is their favorite character).  Too cute.  Grandma made cakes and sent us home with a banner, Minnie Mouse dolls, and toys.

Uncle Scott got the girls these fun ladybug chairs!

 Sweet Girls ... 

 Sharing a birthday party with Yaya ... her 32nd!

 A family pic :)

 cutie pies ... 

Both girls are wearing 2T clothes (right on target).  They weigh about 28 pounds each.  Ellie is inching away from Clara in the height department, but not by too much.  The girls wear size 5 diapers, but maybe not for long.  Clara is obsessed with "potty talk" (much more than Eve was at her age).  Clara will say just about anything she wants to and MOST OF THE TIME, we understand her.  Ellie can say a good many words, but those are rarely heard if a pacy is nearby OR if her older sisters are doing all of the talking.  Ellie is quick to tell the girls and Coleman "no no" while pointing that finger or to tell the girls to "SHOP, SHOP, SHOP" (stop, stop, stop) if it gets too loud.  Ellie calls Clara "Air-a", Eve "Ebe", and Coleman "nan nan".  Clara loves to talk about anything and everything, and usually answers correctly if you ask her a question.  Clara still squeals often, when happy or mad.  Ellie still cries easily if someone has done something to hurt her feelings or make her angry.
