August and September happenings

Well, time flies when you have a million kids. Its been a very very busy time for us. The girls started school, and Dan went back to work all in the same week. It was very difficult those first few days but then things got much easier. The babies are growing like the stars shine. Everyday they seem to get a little chubbier and a little heavier to carry around. I found my saving grace though. They LOVE the stroller, I can go for a 2 mile walk and they don't make a peep. Problem is the HEAT! I can't take them out for a walk until about 6, even then its hot, but not blazing. They love it, and it is liberating for me to get out of the house everyday. I've seen my share of sunsets though, magical and peaceful, I love Arizona.



The girls have to wear uniforms to their school, it is a charter school called Legacy Traditional. I didn't know if I would like this school but Dan was absolutley insistent that they start attending this school. So far, I'm suprised that I actually like it. The teachers are fantastic and I love the whole layout, lots of homework, but the girls are challenged, they like it too, which is good. Elena will be reciting the Declaration of Independence by memorization in front of her class tommorow.



PHOENIX ZOO- we decided to get a pass. The girls always love coming here, and we need a fun place to push the twins around in the stroller, still hot at this time of the year so we spent the day at the zoo's leapin lagoon.





Dan's sister bought a house here in Casa Grande for vacation purposes. They've been here twice already this summer. The girls got to play with their cousins Talia, Chanel and Paris alot, we always have so much fun with them. This is their pool that we are more than happy to look after... :) The twins like swimming, but Jasper seems to like it a bit more. Jayden is the one screaming in the picture.



Here is the most recent picture of my chubby babies. 3 months old... Jasper left, Jayden right, THEY JUST WON"T SMILE FOR THE CAMERA-- EVER!!!! Little stinkers, this was the best shot out of 500, oh well, ce la vie.
