Goin Mobile




Man... I love having Monday's off!  This weekend has provided plenty of time to recharge the batteries and take advantage of some quality family time.  Brenden and Jackson are at a really fun age.  Each day provides a new adventure.  I always look forward to walking through the front door and hearing about the new feat that Mommy has to share.  Whether it be a picture, a video or just a great story, it is definitely a highlight.





Saturday, we decided to get out of the house and head to one of our new favorite breakfast places in Elmhurst, Egg Harbor Cafe.  It's tough to get seated in the middle of the place and not get noticed with 10 month old twins, so we were on display.  I couldn't count fast enough to keep track of all the double takes and nice comments people made.  Needless to say, I was a very proud father overlooking my table of four.  Brenden and Jackson are right at eye level in their highchairs.  It is a serious sight to see.  They split a pancake about the size of one of them.  When they brought it out, I thought that there was no way.  Much to my surprise, they knocked it out no problem.  These two kids are garbage disposals.  I honestly don't know where it goes.  Mom and I keep talking about how we would hate to see our grocery bill in a few years.


Brenden and Jackson are both very difficult to keep confined to one room.  It is only a matter of time before these two fugitives mastermind another jail break as you can see from the video evidence.  Haha!  Their motor skills are improving more and more.  Both Brenden and Jackson have mastered the pull up and baby stance.   They can also walk behind their new favorite toy and sometimes even manage to turn with a little assistance from Dad.  We decided to make it official yesterday and say that Jackson is now WALKING UNASSISTED!  He has been taking a few step between here and there, but he rattled off 6 or 7 yesterday.  It's pretty cool to watch him get better as each day passes.  I know Brenden won't be far behind!
