Our 2 little helpers!

Oh my these 2 love the vacuum so anytime pat gets the vacuum out they are both right there by his side either turning the vacuum on and off or trying to help dad push the vacuum around its hilarious and so annoying at the same time, ecspecially because there are 2 of them so they are either fighting over who gets to push it or turn it off or whatever they can find something to fight over yep already fighting at 2 years old, now instead of just being able to vacuum and get the job done in a matter of time it now takes him all day to vacuum with these 2 little best helpers ever. It just cracks me up how much they love the vacuum they ask me everyday mommy can we get the vacuum out and vacuum they are so funny and so freaking cute this age is the best oh and the worst they never stop.Well the other day we actually had some nice sunny weather warm enough to get the jogger out and take the boys out for a run and stop and play at the park they were loving it, they just love being outside so I just wish the weather would stop teasing us one day its 70degrees and then the next day its snowing again....ugggh! Anyways so here are a few pics of them getting excited to go for a run, I forgot to take some pics of them at the park but believe me they had fun, I couldn't get them to leave:

7 Weeks of Sickies

This is how Ayden looked for about 6 weeks off and on he was miserable:
So we haven't really been up to much since the boys birthday except being sick so the boys ended up sick a few days before there birthday with a horrible cold around Feb 10th so we figured thats all it was so we just went on about our business and a week or so went by and Caleb started getting better but not ayden, then Ayden started having fever's and he had them for about 4 days and then he started saying his ears hurt so we took him into the dr and he had a fever of 102.6 and he had 2 horrible ear infections and a horrible sore throat but it wasn't strep, so they put him on an antibiotic that they said was a pretty strong one so it should do the trick so he was on that for the full 10 days and he was acting so much better and then all the sudden after the 10th day of the medicine he started coming down with fevers again he had them for about 3 days so we took him back and they tested him for strep again and the flu this time and nothing and his ears looked great so they couldn't figure out what was up with him and all his fever's that he kept having so we took him home and 2 days later his fever broke that was on a thursday, he was fine all through the weekend and then come monday of last week he started getting fever's again this time they were in the 103's so we watched him for 3 days and then he started saying his ears hurt again so we took him back and sure enough he had a horrible sore throat again this time full of Puss and horrible ear infections again and a fever of 103.6 and he was so out of it he would just lay there so they felt that they needed to put him on this 3 day shot called Rosefen(however you spell) OMG that was the worst thing I have ever had to experience with my kids oh it was awful that shot was the size of my Progesterone shots that I had to have for 10 weeks in my hip and that long oh it was so sad they had to put it in his leg and because he is so skinny they couldn't even get it all the way in cuz it would have come out the other side ya it was awful, Ayden screamed bloody murder and then he couldn't walk or move his leg for like 2 or 3 hours after and he had to go through that hell for 3 days, well he is now doing better but we went back in on tuesday for their 2 year check up finally ya I know it was like a month and a week late. Anyways they checked Ayden and needless to say he was traumatized from the moment we pulled into the parking lot he started screaming and didn't stop until we left it was horrible, anyways they checked him out and he still has lots of fluid in his ears and they are still pink but not red and it looks like the infection is going away but they are concerned that he might have to have tubes because that fluid could be doing damage to his hearing, so we have to go back in 3 weeks to see how things are going and then decide from there if he will have to get tubes or not.
It just sucks because he went 2 years with no problems never sick and then all the sudden he has been so sick 6 weeks out of the 7 and luckily Caleb has been fine he had a fever on sunday and was pulling at his ears but monday he was fine and the dr. checked him out and said his ears look great. Anyways other then that they are both doing good.so the one weekend Ayden was actually doing okay mav and Danielle took them to the Aquarium this is the only pic she gotThe Dr. said Caleb is very small but doing good he only weighs 22lbs 8OZ and he is only 34 inches and a quarter so he is only in the 30th percentile for height and in the 10th percentile for weight but he eats all the time so he just has a great metabolism.
Ayden is in the 60th percentile for height he is 35 inches and a quarter and he weights 23lbs 8OZ so he is exactly 1 inch taller then Caleb and 1 pound heavier then Caleb, Ayden was always the lighter one but now he is bigger then Caleb, which is so weird because if you looked at them you would think Caleb weighed more cuz Ayden is so skinny but I think he weighs alittle more just because he is a bit taller anyways they are both growing like they should and doing great.
So the one nice day we got the boys had to take their jet ski's outside and ride them up and down the driveway they love their jet ski's that their sissy mav gave them thats what they call her is sissy:
Sorry for the novel

2 Years Old!

Yes I am a slacker when it comes to blogging, so I apologize for the long post anyways the boys just turned 2 a couple of weeks ago, and it was pat's b-day also so he took the day off so we could spend the day with the boys and just hang out so we took the boys to get their haircuts and then we took them bowling:The boys totally bowled the same score, yep they are definitley twins and then to lunch and then we went back home to get ready for their little birthday party, we just had a few ppl over for some Cake and Ice Cream nothing big this year.
So we did a Barney theme this year because they absolutley love Barney we watch it 24/7 along with Toy Story and Cars so that is what we are watching at our house everyday all day long good times LOL!
so here are some pics of the boys birthday:So for the boys birthday we got them my first trampoline and they absolutely love it, so the reason I am posting so many pics of them jumping on the trampoline is because everytime they get in it Caleb yells mommy get camera to take a picture so here are all the pics that I had to take of them jumping because Caleb wouldn't stop asking until I took lots of pics he is so funny he loves having his pic taken now, but only on his termsAnyways the boys got alot of nice stuff from everyone lots of clothes and more toys so thanks everyone for all the stuff they got, after we did gifts we sang to the boys and then had some cake and Ice cream, me being the slacker planner mom I totally forgot to order the boys a cake that had Barney and friends on it til it was too late so I just had to make a couple of cakes and they turned out pretty okay for those of you who know me and my wonderful cooking skills LOL, they were actually editable hahaha.Both the boys were not feeling too well on their b-day so they didn't really have any cake or ice cream they just sat in their chairs and looked sad and sick:and thanks mindy and josh for dishing up the cake and Ice Cream. Anyways they had a nice birthday and thanks again everyone for coming and I can't believe they are already 2 years old they are both so smart they already know all their letters and a word that goes with each letter so for example they say the letter E and then they say Elephant after it and so forth its really cute and they both can count to 10 and they know what number is what.
So I started running again to train for all my marathons I am running this year so instead of waiting until the boys went down for a nap I decided to try running while the boys were in the playroom/gym and it actually worked out great so now the boys will run upstairs and grab my running shoes everyday and bring them down to me and say mommy run and the reason they want me to run is because they get to run after mommy is done they know what they are doing:Ayden loves to sit down and read books he ecspecially loves the little red hen so when I can't find him I will walk in his room and he will be sitting in his rocking chair reading his book and this is what he is saying out loud Not I said the Duck, not I said the Goose and so forth its hilarious.Caleb loves to wear my shoes don't ask me why but he is always pulling my shoes out of the closet and trying to walk around in them its pretty funnyhe also knows his full name and Ayden's full name and my full name and dad's full name its so cute he will sit there and say mommy's name is Mickele Mills and my name is Caleb Patrick Mills its pretty dang cute.
Anyways they are both smart in their own little ways and I am so thankful to have them they are my world and yes there are days that are so hard with 2 of them being the same age but I wouldn't trade it for the world.
Every night before bed they run in there room and each pick out 2 books and say daddy read us a story: and one day I will get that binki away from ayden and his burp rag but I enjoy my sleep way too much to take it away yet LOL!

The Tour!

Okay so some of you have been asking me to post some pics of the whole house now that it is done and we are all moved in and settled. Anyways we have been here for alittle over a month now and I love it, before when we lived in the condo I was always finding something for us to do so we didn't have to be home, now I am okay with staying home all the time because I just love my house and I have room to move and its clean and the boys love having all the room believe me they get much use out of the whole house with their toys.

Christmas Day 2010!

I am finally posting about Christmas because pat got my printer hooked up yesterday so I could finally download my pics to the computer, okay so I found my camera the night before Christmas so I was able to take some pics of the boys on christmas morning. Grandma and Grandpa came over to our house christmas morning to see the boys open up all their gifts so they showed up about 9:00am and of course the boys were not up yet so grandma had to go and wake them up they were not too happy about being woken up but grandma had fun:After they finally woke up they headed downstairs to see all their toys and unwrap presents, they did okay but after opening a few gifts they were done and lost interest and just wanted to play in their tent tunnel thing, so we ended up opening the rest for them, here are lots of pics of christmas:The boys are obsessed with Barney and cars, they each also got a pillow pet, doggie piggy banks, and lots of other stuff!.The boys had more fun playing with the bow back and forth then they did playing with their toys:So after we opened all the gifts shane and april and josh and mindy all came over for breakfast and then we did all the kids gifts to each other, we always have christmas breakfast and we usually do it at my mom's house but we decided to start doing it at our house now that we actually have the room for everyone so it was lots of fun. here are a pic of all the kids after opening their gifts and in their christmas PJ's:
Ayden was so not happy about getting pics taken like always!
Later that night we headed up to my moms for our christmas party that we have every year with the whole fam, it was fun I didn't take many pics but here is what I got:my mom and dad remodel their kitchen and my grandpa was really upset that they were tearing out all the old tile that he put in when he built that house so for christmas my mom and aunts and uncles salvaged the tile pieces for him and made a table out of it for my grandpa he loved it.Caleb and Sammie had the same PJ's it was cute!The kids all in the pj's and ready for bed after along day! The holidays were great but I am glad its over!

Lost Camera

Okay so I have been a slacker about posting and I have lost my camera somewhere in the move so hopefully I will find it before Christmas day so I can take some pics of the boys opening up their gifts. Oh ya and my cell phone broke so I can't even take any pics on that I don't know what I am going to do LOL! Here are some pics before my phone broke:Caleb loves his bananasBrotherly Love!Ayden loves to cheese for the cameraCaleb loves to sit between his doggies and rock its so cute!Anyways we finally got all moved and once I find my camera I will take pics of the finished house with us all moved in. We are so happy to be in our new home and the boys absolutley love it, everytime we leave to go somewhere they always say bye bye house and then when we get around the corner to where they can't see it anymore and they both cry out house go to house its so cute. They used to call the condo home so everytime we would go out and then get back to the condo they would say home we home, and when the house was being built they would say go to house so now whenever we say do you want to go home when we are out they both say NO go to house its hilarious, but they are doing fine it was a little bit of an adjustment for them at first but they are back to normal and sleeping good again actually they are sleeping longer now, now they are in bed between 9:00 and 9:30 and they sleep til 10:00 now its great, before at the condo they were getting up between 8:30 and 9:00, so I am hoping this will continue hehehe.
K well I will post again soon with pics of the house and hopefully Christmas.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!
