Inspiration Tuesday

"Thinkers think and doers do. But until the thinkers do and the doers think, progress will be just another word in the already overburdened vocabulary of the talkers who talk."

I completely agree, not just with other people, but for myself.  I need to stop thinking about it and do it not to mention stop talking about it and really think then do it...confusing..kind of!

{Happy Tuesday Everyone!}

Thursday Thoughts

• I have a lot of house work to do and no motivation to do it.
• I also have lots of post ideas and things to catch up on, again, no motivation.
• It's summer time and beautiful outside which means I should have LOTS of motivation!
• Thinking that maybe the allergies are what getting me into the unmotivated mood.
• Watched Kenzlee crawl for the first time the other day (i'll post a vid hopefully soon) and it made me realize they are growing up to fast.  
• Excited that we are busy this summer but for some reason not really feeling relaxed.  
• There are very few pictures of me and the girls together.  Someday soon we need to do family portraits.
• I want to go swimming..now.
• Seeing the stars while camping the other weekend really made my month.
• Hoping to get finish up some projects I started before school was out.
• really in need of a good trim and things, my poor hair.
• I miss rugby.
• I miss my motorcycle which is almost ready to ride.
• Need to get a new battery for my road bike.
• Really should just go through my blogroll and read all my lovely blogs I follow, since it's been a while!
• thinking this list could go on..
• My mind is full!

Filled up

Well we made it back from the first camp out of the season and first camp out for the twins, alive.  It was  a fun time and spent with good friends.  The girls seemed to enjoy it despite not being able to nap very well because of the heat.  I felt a little stressed and unprepared but I think next time around it will be a little different. :)  They also seem very happy to be home because they have slept and napped so amazing since we got back, it's been beautiful to say the least!  I'll have to post up some pictures here in the next couple days.  

I want to thank everyone for all the food/meal advice for the twins!  It really has helped a lot and I think we have them on a good routine and have figured out some healthy stuff they seem to really enjoy!  So, yes, again thank you it really made things a lot easier around here, hehe.  

They are both so close to crawling everywhere rather than rolling and scooting.  Kenzington we think may walk first, she is walking along furniture more than she attempts to crawl.  Boy, am I frightened but so excited for when all that starts happening!  It's going to be a rush of craziness on so many levels, from baby proofing to just being simply proud that they are doing these amazing things and we get to watch.

Oh the joys of being a parent!  We were just talking last night about how excited we are when they reach the age that we can teach them to ride dirt bikes and snowboard and all that good stuff.  They already ride around on their little dinosaur and fairie-mobile, totally loving it!  

Hopefully everyone had a fantastic weekend!  It was super hot here, which was a nice change from all the cold stormy weather.  

This week we are heading in to get Oakley's leg X-rayed to make sure the bone is healing correctly and then they also both will get their shots.  :)  Fun week!  

Cannot wait for the weekend but totally loving the days in-between!  

Oh Hai!

I know I haven't been updating as per usual.  I think I've come to be a bit lazy in these growing summer days.  We are all doing awesome.  The gremlins were both weighed and measured recently

Oakley 22.9lbs  27in

Kenzington 22.5   27in

we have had a lot going on through the weekends but then our weekdays are pretty much boring! That's not really a bad thing in the summer right?

I do have a question for all you moms or people who just know! 

The twins have recently stopped wanting bottles and are really just wanting solid foods regularly which is great, it's about time for them.  The thing is, even after some faithful google searching,  I just can't seem to think of good meal plans for them.  You know what to feed them for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.  Oakley seems to be super picky and if we are persistent she'll eat what we give her but usually she would prefer to settle for bread and oatmeal.  

They aren't allergic to anything so far, we've tried peanut butter and eggs so on.

So my question is, when your kids started to eat solids regularly what did you feed them for meals?  Easier things are obviously more appealing to me but semi more in depth is great too! 

Any help would just be great cause I seriously have a brain block with this. 

We are taking the girls on their first camping trip this weekend and I'm super excited but super worried too.  Mostly worried that I'll forget something they'll need, or they wont sleep well.  Any tips there, also welcome! I'll be sure to take lots of pictures of their dirtyness and first time in the wild, right were they belong, hehe.  

I hope everyone has a great weekend and I'll be sure to keep on top of updates and posts here on out!

{Happy Friday!}
