Caleb takes the lead!

Normally Joshua is first to do everything . He was the first to sit, smile, giggle, and crawl. We joke that he's trying to make up for being born second! Well finally Caleb has started a new skill that Joshua hasn't even attempted yet. Caleb pulls himself up. He learned how to go from a crawl position into a sitting position and now he grabs on to anything and pulls to a standing position. Crazy! Walking seems so close now.



Mornings with the Doyles!

This morning was different because my boys woke up happy. My boys are not the type who wake up cooing and singing. NO they wake up crying. This morning though they were sweetly singing back and forth to each other. Is this a turning point? Is the twin talk everyone has warned my about starting? We will have to wait for another morning to see.



The sweetest sounds

Three girls having fun.
Random "I love you mommy" when you think a question is coming.
My little girls singing praise music in the back of the van.
Squeals of delight from the little boys.
Joyous laughter during play time.
"Thank you" from a ten year old in the morning.
Household noise. All of it. The crying, screaming, laughing, talking and signing.

Kellina's version



Kellina is always doing or saying things that crack me up. The most recent was her singing Baa Baa Black Sheep. It went something like this

Bla Bla Black Sheep
Have you any more
Yes sir Yes sir
Three bags full
One for my mater
One for the name
and one mmmmm mmmm mmm
It was beautiful and hard not to laugh.
