Going in two directions

I guess it isn't a surprise that the twins would both take off together - they've done everything together from the beginning. I just didn't think that I would truly love what a chair feels like since I don't sit too much these days chasing after them. Not that the chair moments don't happen - but holy man - they are fast.

Jake is always covering me with one of the babies when I can't be in both places. He has mastered the under the arm carry with both of them to bring them back to the "safe zone." Sometimes I still have that feeling of "yikes" when he picks them up but he is a strong little guy. Nick & Abby have mastered carrying objects with them which means that if they fall - the outcome may not be so nice. We often have fat lips, cuts in the mouth and a couple of forehead bruises but they seem to just get up and keep going. Thank goodness they are so squishy and soft! Nicky needs a bit more meat on his bones compared to Abby but he endures the hard floor with his boney diaper butt! The chase begins!

I loved the videos! I was giggling right along with Nick! Both of the twins are moving so much--they've come a long way since the summer. It sounds like Jake is being a great big brother. We hope to see you soon!

We miss you!
Love,
Anna, Michael & Colin :)
