Brendan is 36!

 Watching Daddy put up the swimming pool. It is just the right size for them. No pictures of his birthday, but the girls made him a Magnatile cake so he didn't stray from his diet.

 These legos are really stuck together

 These are our other twins. They are actually triplets, but only 2 of them stay together all the time. They really like our yard.

We tried the water table inside with beans, but we can make an even bigger mess if we put it outside and fill it with water. So much fun!

Random Pictures

 There is a deep ravine behind our house. This is a picture of the waterfall that is created when it rains. It was taken in January of this year.

 This is the same waterfall, taken last week. Huge pieces the size of cars have fallen off the sides. This part is not our property, but we will be loosing some land before long.

 Poor boy has to wear girly hand me downs and play with girly toys. He doesn't seem to mind though.

 We bought a bounce house! The perfect use for our empty dining room.

 

I love this illustration of the differences between Maren and Maven. Maven's is more concrete and Maren's is more abstract. What is funny is that although Maren may make more of a mess when she eats or plays, she will clean it up on her own. Maven makes much less mess, but she won't clean it up without being asked. 

They are starting to play together really well!

Now this is interesting. They love to play with this leash. When they are "tied together", they cooperate completely with each other. I hear them compromising about everything. "Let's go to our room. OK, let me get my water. OK, let's go this way." As soon as one of them drops the leash, it's over.
