Opening their gift from Radley... Noah's Ark Little People. He picked it out from the children's consignment shop and he played with it all day. : )
I made the girls tutus for their birthday and I am hoping to get some 1 year photos of them in their tutus. Notice the teal, hot pink, and black... because if my girls are going to wear a tutu, it has to be a little bit punk rock.
They both got their own big cupcake. The inside was pumpkin apple harvest cake that I modified with wheat flour, apple juice consecrate instead of sugar and I added raisins. The frosting is cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, vanilla, and a little bit of powdered sugar and it was colored pink with cranberry juice. I made a third cupcake for Robert, Radley, myself to share... and it was so good!!!

Their birthday was actually last Saturday, but I am a lazy blogger! I can't believe we survived twinfants! There were parts of this year that went by painfully slow, but mostly it just flew by... in a state of blur. We have two toddlers now and I think this next year will be really, really fun! Izabelle is silly and spunky. She is loud too. Maraliese is silly, but a bit more mellow (but mellow is not a word to describe any of my kids). Mara loves to talk... not many real words, but she talks! They are both walking fools. They fight over toys and they hug and snuggle. They still sleep together in one big queen bed (well for part of the night... then they move to our bed : ) ) We are so greatful for such healthy fun kids. God has and is teaching Robert and myself so much trough these little ones.... it is hard sometimes, but so, so worth it.
