Every once in awhile...

....the twins can be nice to each other,
... can go a few moments without fighting,
...actually help another,
...give a a chance to enjoy two two year old at one time.
At this moment of the day, Carson was having major issues; to say the least. Nothing seemed to go his way and he wanted nothing to do with me. He just wanted his build-a-bear turtle and Superman pillow. I was just too busy to stop from deep cleaning every inch of my house...but the next thing I heard was giggles...

Cassie had gone into the kitchen, got a bowl of crackers for the two of them to share.

She went and got her pillow and bear and the two of them were laughing and playing with each other. It is moments like this, as a mom, you step back and realize that there are good times that happen during the day.

The day while the husbands aren't home are not all just full of fights, mess after mess, tears, more fighting, screaming, yelling, and crying...

moments like this just don't happen enough, but when they finally do, it makes the days so much smoother and nicer to deal with. It gives us moms the sliver lining that we need to get through the day and start again the next morning.

It is nice to know that with all the silly fights, hitting, pushing, and teasing, that Carson and Cassie really really do love each other and are grateful to have one another, even when I am too busy to stop for a moment; they have each other.


As I said up above, I am in cleaning mode and I love it! It is a lot of work and I have to make a bigger mess at first, but the end result is amazing!

These two make any job twice as hard, (pun totally intended) thinking that they need to be right there with me, helping me with every little thing, and if it is something new (but is really just old and misplaced) that they haven't seen for a LONG time, then they MUST try it out and play with it for a bit; no matter what is may be.

Here are my two BIG helpers,
but don't worry ladies, you won't be seeing these two at the local DI, but everything else will be.
(Too bad I didn't get this done before the ward swap meet ladies, I am getting rid of some fantastic finds...clothes, clothes, shoes, purses, jackets, cooking wear, more clothes, toys, sheets and blankets, ect. Just about everything...I want it good-bye and gone.)

I don't know how you do it with twins! They are cute little buggers! I love your new family photos.

Those two are so stinkin' cute! Caleb and Eli are STILL talking about how fun it was to play with Cassie and Carson.

I think your cleaning spree sounds fun! If I could just get past the work part. And the frustration of extra helpers. Haha.
