Lila decided she could guard the toys better if she was in the box

My friend Nicole (who I have know just about all my life) and I were on the Apple Festival Queens court together years ago…man that doesn’t seem possible!!  So it was neat to have our kids participate in the contest. The babies got a meet her daughter Aubrey for the first time.  She is so adorable and was helping keep the babies occupied before the baby contest by feeding them yogurt bites.  But what she didn’t know was that it was helping keep her distracted too!!

The taste of victory!

All the winners…well at least mom and dad are looking at the camera

Off to the BIG parade after a very short nap.  I was a little worried because the parade didn’t start until 8pm and I didn’t know if we were going to last that long.  But they did great!

IMG_7095 IMG_7096 IMG_7097 IMG_7098

Madelyn loved the parade and she never took her eyes off of it.  She would jump up and down and wiggle…she just loved it!

IMG_7101 

Carter was a little sleepy but he loved the fire trucks and everytime a band went by he would sing…it was so cute!

IMG_7103

Lila loved the lights and would occasionally get really excited and jump up and down.  Here she is smiling and jumping!

 IMG_7105

We are learning all sorts of new things.  Carter is clapping his hands and Lila has started waving with both hands.  However, ironcially she eems to have more control with her left hand than her right (looks like she might be her daddy’s lefty).  I am hoping to get it on video but everytime I get the camera out they are too interested in what it is and stop.  Then there is little miss camera hog and she gets excited at the chance to show off in front of the camera.  She dances everytime she hears music and when prompted by shaking her hips and nodding her head but I haven’t gotten on video yet.  Here she is waving.

And here she is playing peek a boo with daddy!

This weekend is our big multiples clothing and equipment sale.  It is in northern Cincinnati and I will be setting up on Friday night.  By the time I was to get home from the set up the babies would already be in bed and then I would have to leave way before they got up in the morning.  So I am choosing to stay the night with Kera, one of my multiples friends, and this will be my first official night away from the babies.  We will see how that goes:)
