Meet Baby Bryne

This is our little cousin Bryne. She came to visit us all the way from Wisconsin with her Mom Angie and Grandma Bev from Minnesota. She was tiny enough to fit into our old bouncy chair and she didn't even try to turn it over like Casey did. We took walks, played on the floor and got to hear lots of funny stories about Bryne's sister, Ella and brother, Dawson. We also heard lots of stories about the five little O'Reilly boys who live across the road from Grandma Bev and we can't wait to meet them. They sound like they know how to have lots and lots of fun. Maybe Kaleb and Kelby can give us some pointers on being twins...Bev says they look so much like each other that they can fool their teachers at school! We can't wait to goto Minnesota and play at the farm!

Happy Birthday Baba!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABA! We are so excited that it is your birthday that we just can't stop smiling. We are going to celebrate your birthday at our house with some milk and cereal and a nice long nap. We are doing great. Both of us are rolling over which means that sometimes we roll into each other! And then we can't figure out how to get out of the way so Mom and Dad have to rescue us. And, we got a Jumper so we can jump and do little dances with our feet. Mom says that with all of this rolling and jumping we should be sleeping through the night, but sometimes it is just too hard to stay asleep when there is so much fun stuff to do when we are awake. It was so fun to see you at the airport and Casey promises to wake up next time and say hello. Have a wonderful birthday and eat lots of cake for us!

Aren't We Cute?

Hi everyone-

We are wishing our Grandparents a belated Happy Grandparents Day. We are SO lucky to have such a good Halmunee and Baba and Grandpa and Grandma. These smiles are especially for you!

We have realized that if we smile for the camera Mom and Dad make a VERY big deal about it so we hope they just keep snapping away. They get so excited over such silly things! We decided to change it up a little and stop sleeping through the night just to see how our parents cope. So far, it seems like they are just fine with one of us getting up but if both of us wake up then they are a little cranky.

The latest and greatest on the twins: Casey is rolling over and likes to sleep facedown which makes Brian crazy. Matthew is jabbering and giggling all the time and although he could care less about rolling over, he is starting to like being on his belly. They seem to have started to notice each other and spend lots of time each day just studying each other. Very cute, indeed!

Just Hanging Out

We aren't doing too much today. Just hanging out in our jammies and looking cute. We look so well rested because we both have been sleeping through the night. It is kind of fun getting up in the middle of the night, though. Dad changes our diaper and Mom feeds us and snuggles with us. Everytime Mom tells someone we slept through the night she knocks on wood...we aren't sure what that means. Anyhow, don't we look refreshed?
