Ridin' along in my automobile...

We adventured to the Land before Time to visit Nanny & Paw Paw. James and Maggie played outside all day...riding on the big wheel and being chauffeured on the golf cart. James is definitely all boy...he loved the big wheel and really loved the wind in his face while riding the golf cart. Maggie enjoyed pushing her baby on the big wheel but would rather not come within 3 ft of the golf cart; we will try again at a later time. Nanny and Paw Paw really love spending time with James and Maggie...they (James and Maggie) were so tired when we left, they slept all the way home (...I would guess that Nanny & Paw Paw napped too).

Vroom, VVVVRRRRROOOOOOOOMMMM


look out Erik Estrada...


Hold ON...BaBy!!!


my baby beside me at the wheel...

Look out Picasso



J&M love to color...they bring home such wonderful artwork from school and we could not resist giving into their request to color at home. Yesterday, after nap time we converted the kitchen into Art Class 101. They had such a great time: coloring, chatting, eating the colors, and drinking milk. I now have masterpieces hanging on the refrigerator for all to see!!!


and they were Swingin'


M&J love being outside and with the wonderful day we had on Saturday...who could blame them! Blue skys, sunny skies, warm(er) temps...perfect for swinging and being silly!

it's BUBBLE time...





This was a Bubble adventure...although, it is a bit hard to blow bubbles when each kid is running away with them. They definitely love being outside...cannot wait until spring!!!

One and the Same...Giveaway

I am truly honored to be hosting a One and the Same: My Life as an Identical Twin and What I've Learned About Everyone's Struggle to Be Singular book give-away!!! The winner will receive an autographed copy of Abigail Pogrebin's newest book.

Abigail contacted me a few weeks ago and had this great idea to do a giveaway...I was super excited and immediately replied "sign me up"!!!!

Some of you know...J&M are technically our second set of twins...as we lost our first set very early on. We feel so blessed to be twin parents...considering both sets were spontaneous (God is so GOOD!). I am curious to read this book...as it will hopefully spark interesting thoughts as I raise my precious kiddos!

While researching Abigail Pogrebin and her newest book, I came across an interview she did with National Public Radio. This was very interesting to me to hear her discuss the book and its reviews. Also, as an avid Football Fan, I found a unique interview (and excerpt) with the NFL's most famous twins: Tiki and Ronde Barber. I truly hope you will enjoy reading this as much as I have enjoyed researching. This will be my next book to read and then maybe we can discuss...

GIVEAWAY: Here are the RULES!!!
1. Leave a comment for one entry!
2. Become a Follower/tell me you are for two additional entries!!
3. Blog about this Giveaway for FIVE additional entries!!! (leave me the link)

The comments will be accepted until 11pm CST on March 10th and a winner announced on March 11th!!!

I encourage you to visit http://www.abigailpogrebin.com/ to learn more about One and the Same and the author, Abigail Pogrebin. You can order this book from Random House, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and many other booksellers.

GOOD LUCK!!!
