Whole lot of dancin goin on!

This year has been a dance adventure for this family!

Allikaye was asked to be a part of Castle Rock Dance Academy's 

Company Dance Group...

competitive group...

and she was all for it and we were proud of our little dancer! 

 It also helped that one of her besties, Lauren, was also in it...

 Here are the goof balls...

 The competitions were a little much to be honest...

especially for this mama who was pregnant with twins! 

But the girls did absolutely fabulous!

They got 2nd over all and 3rd overall in their comps! 

Here is the Intensity Dance comp...

and the girls with their plaque and medals...

 My pretty pretty girl...

 Dancing friends...

definitely a memory that will be cherished...

 Practicing before they take the stage...

Here is Miss Dancing Machine after her regular recital...

 I can't get enough of her pretty face...

 She wanted to get some love from Cambria...

 

Lauren and AK with their preschool teacher who came to cheer them on...

 

And now....

introducing...

Allikaye...

dancer extraordinaire...

 She loved her year of dance...

I am proud that she made it through the competitions...

even though she may have gotten a bit burnt out at times...

and really did super great!!

We may be hanging up her tap shoes for tennis shoes

next year...

but we will never forget this year of dance!!!

Proud of our pretty Allikaye!!

4 months old!!

 They are 4 months old! 

Sweet sweet babies they are!

Kai weighed in at 15.5 lbs!! 

Big boy!!! 

He loves to giggle and laugh and smirk at us...

goes crazy kicking and trying to roll in the water at bath time...

laughs when hes roughed up a bit - no need to be super gentle with him...

total boy! 

He is snuggly wearing 6 month clothes...

loves to grab anything and put it in his mouth...

rolls over...

scoots/army crawls in a full circle...

scoots up in his crib and I find him head first in the bumper in the mornings...

lover boy!

 Cambria weighed in at 13.75 lbs!

Sweet dainty thing still!!

She loves to give a big open mouthed wide smile...

laughs and giggles just at funny faces or words...

so calm and serene in the water at bathtime...

when it is noisy in the room or car she talks up a storm...

"ooo-ooo-ooo" like a howler monkey...

and really wants to tell us things...

she loves to grab things and put them in her mouth...

rolls over...or tries to roll over every time she's on her tummy - except if she's sleeping...

Such a thinker and lover!!!

 All four months!!! 

3 month old babies...and a preschool grad!!

Here are the 3 month olds!

 Silly babes wouldn't smile the second I put the camera up...

but all smiles the second it went down!

 I had to put this picture in...

Kai was entranced by Cam's hair bow...

What IS that thing on your head, sister?

 Here is the big boy...

Kai!!

It is rare to see this boy without a little smile on his face!

He is starting to raise his eyebrows when he smiles too!

Little flirty flirt!

 Pretty little Birdie...

Cambria!!

She has just livened up this past month...

so happy and the sweetest smile!

 One...two...three...

3 wonderful months with 2 amazing babies! 

Also this month was the graduation of our sweet preschooler! 

Here is Miss Allikaye walking the aisle!

 Getting her diploma from Miss Linda...

 While we waited for the ceremonies I couldn't pass up

the photo ops of the babes with their Grandma and Popa!

They love smiling and all the attention!! 

Kai with Popa...

 Even though this picture is blurry...

it is SO him...

moving nonstop! 

Active little dude!

 Cambria and Grandma...

loving it!

 Oh she is so pretty! 

I am NOT ready for her to start Kindergarten in the fall!

She is ready, but not I!

 There she is...

Miss Thing!

 Allikaye with her class...

lots of boys...

and lots of stories everyday about these boys and their antics...

which of course, AK is a part of!

One last thing to share from this month...

a little bit of tummy time!

Happy baby time!

Love this...

She thinks mama is funny...

 

"I'm 3 months old!"

Summer time is here!

xoxo

T-W-O Month Old Babies!!

 This boy has got to be the sweetest boy ever!!

He LOVES to smile!

He will smile the second you start to talk to him...

sometimes all I have to do is look into his eyes...

smile!!

 

Sweet Cambria is our little Birdie!

She already thinks about things a lot...just like AK! 

She is more selctive with her smiles...

but when she does...

it is the biggest, most joyful thing that a person can see!

 

They are also both sleeping 5 to 6 hours a night...

eat every 3 hours still in the day...

both are being very vocal and cooing lots...

still are loving and in awe of their big sister...

and are just plain perfect in my opinion!

They have already changed so much
in just one month!
Mostly in their weights...
they are g-o-o-d eaters!!
 

So blessed...

doubly blessed!!!

Springtime!

 Spring is here!

We have had a super start to our spring fun...

Starting with the 4th annual Helicopter Egg Drop!!

We love this!

And this year it was h.o.t!
But the tradition continues...

 

Here is Miss Allikaye and her buddy, Ava! 

They are going to be in the same 

Kindergarten Class next year!

Allikaye is SO excited! 

Here's the helicopter!!!

I have wanted to do a sister-sister

matchy match outfit thing for a long time...

now I can!!

And Allikaye was thankfully into it...

wasn't sure if she would be!

How cute are my girls?!!! 

And this picture is perfect

because these babies L-O-V-E their big sister! 

The second she starts talking to them, 

they stare and are already in awe of her!! 

Sweetness!

 

Here are the babies on Easter!!

Allikaye said they look like a married couple in this picture!

They totally do!!!!

Kai's a little cross-eyed in this pic...oops!

They love them!

Grandma just thinks it's pretty cool her little girl (me :))

They are both so happy and love smiling!

And of course...

I can not get enough!!
