Twins at six months!


  Charlotte and Emily you still love being swaddled and still fit in your hospital swaddles (sweet little things!) You've also have had your first taste of baby cereal and loved it! 


Big sister had a lot of fun helping mommy feed you girls. She loves helping out every chance she gets and loves playing with you so much. You both love cuddling with each other and will sleep almost anywhere still. :) 




How did we celebrate you turning six months? Why we went to Utah to visit Nanny and Granddad of course! And, Lauren, Aaron, Charlie and Penny came to visit from England! Yay! 

Rebekah had so much fun playing with Charlie and Penny while we were in Utah. I wish we lived closer so we could have cousin playdates all the time. Maybe one day. ;) 







Rebekah had a lotto fun chasing Penny as she rode the bicycle.




And, Penny had a lot of fun chasing Rebekah on the bicycle. :) 






While we were in Utah we decided to check out Thanksgiving Point and The Museum of Natural Curiosity. All of the children loved the museum and thought it was an absolute hit! 



Just practicing their monkey swings! 



Charlotte was enjoying the day out, having fun eating her hand and laughing to herself. 


While Emily rested and took a nap (don't worry babes, mommy loves nap time too!) 


The children had fun trying on costumes in the play theater at the museum. 


Andrew and Aaron even joined in on the fun! 


Rebekah and Penny had fun playing with the fake washing machine. 



We found a fun splash park inside of the museum just before we left. I think this must have been Rebekah's favorite part as she was soaking wet by the end! 





We couldn't visit Utah without spending a day in SLC at Temple Square. 



Rebekah was more interested with the fountain and throwing coins in than looking at the Temple.

Easter 2016!


Rebekah had lots of fun helping daddy and I color Easter eggs! 





The Easter bunny came to our house and brought the girls lots of goodies. Mommy and Daddy bought the girls new Easter dresses. Yay, for matching little girls! 




Sweet little Charlotte and Emily oblivious to all the chocolate goodies big sister Rebekah is finding...just wait until next year Becks! 



Emily can sense something in the air, must be why she's sticking out her tongue, saying "sissy sneak me a taste mommy won't know." 



And, Charlotte is just all smiles. 


Amber and her roommate Taylor came over for Easter dinner. It was so nice being able to spend the holiday with family, even if we just watched a movie. 






Happy Easter everyone!

Grandpa, Grandma and Auntie Rachel Visit!

My Sweet Charlotte & Emily

You girls are growing so quickly! I can't believe you're already five months old. Guess who came to visit us this month? Grandma, Grandpa and Auntie and Rachel! 





It was there first time meeting you so everyone was super excited to have them here. Rebekah really loved spending time with Auntie Rachel and Grandpa. Look at all those cute cuddles! 



Rebekah giving Grandpa cuddles as they watch daddy play his video game. 


Grandma and Grandpa brought out some Easter goodies for us all to enjoy. They even planned a little Easter Egg Hunt for Rebekah too do, which was a tradition growing up in the Kerstetter house. I hate to admit that I was horrible at the hunts, especially as I got older. The eggs were always right in front of my face & I never saw them, and mom and dad recorded the hunts. Blackmail much? Haha. 

Luckily, Rebekah was a lot better at the Egg Hunt than me. But that doesn't mean I still can't use the videos as blackmail, right? 






Rebekah was even more excited once she realized the Easter Eggs has candy hidden inside. She is such a chocoholic...I guess she gets that from me. ;)






Grandma and Grandpa brought her some other Easter goodies, since we weren't able to spend the holiday together. I'm sure we'll live closer soon. :)




Naturally, Rebekah went straight for the chocolate. She tired eating the chocolate bunny whole, silly girl! 



The Easter goodies Grandma and Grandpa brought for us and the twinners. 


We got to spend more time with Amber's boyfriend Brandon, while my parents were up here. They seem really sweet together and are a really happy couple. 



Amber, Rachel and I made skirts while my mom was out here. I think it's going to be a "new baby" tradition for me.  I made a skirt with my mom when Rebekah was born too.
