Another Milestone

This week we hit 'viability!' That means if I should deliver soon, the babies would 'survive.'  It's always a reassuring feeling to me to hit week 24!!  Here's this week's picture.


We still did not find out gender….we will share it when we find out….in 14 weeks! :)

But Baby 'A' currently weighs 1 pound 7 ounces.
Baby 'B' weighs 1 pound 9 ounces.

We are still undecided about names….so if you have any suggestions, we'd love to hear them!

Here's what twins look like at our house!!!!

We are more than excited to announce that we are expecting twins in January!!!  :)

Brookings Childrens Museum

The Brookings Children's Museum has been on my bucket list for a couple of summers now….and finally we got a chance to go with our great friends, the Schueler family, this past week!  Let me tell you….it was absolutely fantastic!  This kids and mom's came home exhausted and happy!   

 We started out in the automotive room….Soren's changing the exhaust.
 The 'exercise' room.
 Roo calling next door!


 The grocery store is always a huge hit! :)

 They had a conveyer belt that you could send the produce down.

 Another favorite room was this big area…..Gardening, construction, climbing, a teepee, a sod house and much more.

 Two construction cuties!
 We spent some time outside digging for dinosaur bones!

 My Miss Roo absolutely adores Aubrey….and wants to be like her all the time!  Thankfully, Aubrey is so patient and kind to her!


 Putting on a show!
 We were served coffee, ice cream and sandwiches for afternoon snack!


 This little boy needed some down time with his mom….reading a story! :)


 The water room was another favorite spot!!!
 Soren and Aubrey working together to 'pump' the water so the ball will shoot straight up and follow a crazy path back down! 


 I love this boys tongue….it's his look of concentration!


 More water fun was had by all!!!
 Onto the music room….this girl loved the drums and xylophone!
 Sand creations!
 Painting……who doesn't love to paint!!! You got to spray it with water and clean it off afterwards…..life is good!


 The final room was a big building area….and good place to get all the final wiggles out before heading home!  Here's two princesses in their castle!
 The prince defending his castle!!!
A highly recommended excursion…..we loved it and are excited to go back!!! :)

Sletto Birthday Fun

Our cousin Kari turned 5 this past month and Soren turned 7 two weeks later…..therefore we were able to celebrate both birthday's in one weekend!!  

 The 2 littlest girls got to have their toenails and fingernails painted by Grammie and myself…..party prep, of course! :)

 Josiah, Kinley and Siri getting ready for present opening.


 Kari & Soren got personalized 'big people' camping chairs!

 A big hit for Soren was his new Beta fish….'Red'……he has been asking for one for over a year now and thanks to the Penn's and Sletto's he is now one happy camper! :)

 Kari got a battery operated car from her folks…..it was much loved by all!



 The birthday couple chose Root Beer Floats for their dessert…..it's tricky getting candles in that!

 There was much more play time, delicious food and great memories….it was a weekend to celebrate!
