I have been going through hundreds and hundreds of pictures to update my blog. I'm not exaggerating either, I have hundreds of pictures to go through before I can update. So hopefully when I have 17 hours I will FINALLY have an update with pictures! Okay maybe I don't need 17 hours, but I need several hours to go through pictures! So be patient, pictures will be coming!!

another quick update...
It feels kinda weird that I haven't posted on my blog for several weeks, so I thought I would give a quick update. No pictures though. My sister has a bunch that I want to post of our 4th of July Camping Trip and then the week she was in Price, so I will wait until I have those pictures. She has been busy, but as soon as I see em, I will post them....
Chrissy and Kayla are crawling all over the place. I use to tell people that twins were a lot easier then I anticipated, but lately it seems like I am constantly chasing them around. Chrissy is pulling herself up on furniture and walking alongside some of it. SOOO not ready for them to be walking!!!! Kayla is still learning to pull herself up. Kayla got her first 2 teeth about a month ago, and Chrissy started getting her first 2 teeth this past week. Lets just say when they start biting, I WILL BE DONE NURSING!!! My mom and I think Kayla had Roseola last weekend. She had a super high fever and then broke out in a rash for a few days. I just assumed she was getting more teeth. We thought that Chrissy would get it too, yet we have been lucky that she hasn't, so far. They are excellent eaters and love to put everything in their mouth, INCLUDING pieces of my parents new carpet. Who knows where they find em?
Cameron is still as cute as ever! He has the potty training down to a tee. He calls it "making yellow" or "making brown." Don't ask where he got that, he's the one that started calling it that. We didn't want to change it because we were just so excited that we didn't have to continue buying diapers. He misses Hunter and still talks about him... :( It makes me sad!
Rory is still enjoying his job. He is being very patient with learning new things and I think he was kinda excited to learn how to lay tile and he got a crash course on electrical. Now we can buy a complete dump because I have a husband that can and will fix things... JK..
Speaking of buying a house, we still haven't. We keep waiting for the right house to come up on the market. We walked through a 4-plex yesterday to rent again and I was SOO depressed that we were looking to rent again. I thought we were done with that stage in our life, but I don't think we should rush into getting a house. I don't know. Let's just say that we are confused as ever on what to do for now.
We are still living with my parents and it has been soo nice to have their support along with their help with the kids. I don't know what I'm going to do when they move away from here. I think I have almost forgot what it was like to not have them around while we were in Cedar, so it may be an adjustment when I am the only stay at home mother with my children. I have also been working at Wingers this past month. Only weekends, but lots more hours then I expected. The shifts are just 8-9 hours, so I am working more now then I did when I was in Cedar. It is so nice to get out of the house and socialize with the public, but I don't know how long this job of mine will last. It kinda sucks that the days that I work, I only see Rory on his lunch and then again when I got off work, yet everyone else is in bed. I kinda like my husband and enjoy seeing him. We SHALL SEE!
Speaking of work, better get ready and go.....

Fishing Time....
Last week while Rory and I went to look at houses, Papa thought it would be a good idea to take Cameron fishing. Cameron loved it!!! When Rory and I were done, I dropped Rory off at the Pond with them and snapped a few pictures. By that time, Cameron was starting to get a little restless because they weren't catching very many fish. He still had a blast and loves spending as much time as possible with Papa.

Update, Update, Read all about it!
We have been here for almost 2 weeks. Gone by pretty fast, surprising when you have NOTHING to do! Well I shouldn't say NOTHING, we have been trying to find a house to buy, yet no luck. And a house purchase to me is something you shouldn't "settle" on.
There are a lot of other things that come with moving. Insurances ending and finding new, changing addresses, paying cancellation charges (BLAH), unpacking, trying to get situated even though you KNOW your current housing is temporary, and having EVERYTHING in storage. Many of times, I go look in the closet, just to NOT find my shoes that I wanted to wear, realizing that they are in storage... ;( OH THE JOYS OF LIFE!!!
Cameron asks about, "Cameron's house" and wanting to play with his cute friend, Hunter. All I can do is change the subject because I can't break his heart and tell him that Cameron's house is not there anymore, and who knows when he will get to see Hunter again.
Rory is enjoying his new job. The first day he was questioning if he made the right decision or not, mainly because he was the new guy and who likes to be the new person at work with the stress and nerves that come with it. He is surprisingly working A LOT less then I thought he would be. He works 8-5, Monday through Friday. I am enjoying this schedule, yet he says that he knows it won't be permanent, so we enjoy each other as much as possible, until the job becomes more time consuming.
EXPLANATION OF PICTURES: It has been kinda crappy weather here, well I will say, "Semi-Crappy" weather. It has been nice in the mornings, but rains in the afternoon. So it sure isn't feeling like Summer. For some reason I keep remembering how Kim told me that in California people always would say June Gloom, and I'm starting to feel like it is fitting Utah weather perfectly right now. Anyway Cameron wanted to play in the water, with this weather, it was not happening, so my mom thought it would be fun to fill this kiddie pool up with balls. I thought it was perfect because in my mind I keep thinking that this is the only ball fun he will have since I will NEVER let him play at McDonald's play area. I'm kinda paranoid about germs in those things... He shared soo nice with his sisters. Chrissy and Kayla were in HEAVEN!
My dad's birthday was Monday, Happy Birthday Papa! I think, Cameron was more excited about his birthday then Papa was. He insisted on birthday hats and we hung balloons and he had to help blow out candles. He would not stop talking about it all day long, yet kinda sad when Papa's birthday party was over.
Birthdays are so much more fun when you have little kids, I think.
CHRISSY/KAYLA Update-They are getting sooo big! They are developing different then Cameron. I know people say not to compare, but it is easier said then done. They are ALL over my parent's house. Crawling and moving around everywhere! Sad thing is they are still struggling to sit up for long periods of time. I have a feeling they will be crawling and walking, yet never get the sitting down part! Hope not because that would be awkward for them to lay down and eat when they get older! ;)
Make a note of this: Longest Blog I have ever done!

New Adventure.....
Okay everyone that's on my case to update my blog HERE YOU GO! I've been doing sooo well with keeping my blog updated, but when I go 2 weeks not posting, people act like I am MIA!!!! Well this is what has been going on the past 2 weeks. We are trying to get all packed and cleaned by this saturday. Packing is QUITE interestig with 2 little ones, but we HAVE to get it done. THANK YOU THANK YOU MOM for keeping Cameron for a week!!! He would be sooo bored and into EVERYTHING!
If you are confused on why we are moving, Quick Update-Rory got a new job in Price. He is the new Store Manager of CJ's Do It Center. We will move into my parents house for a couple of weeks until we find a place of our own. I'm really SAD to leave Cedar City because I LOVE it here, but we both feel good about this job and new adventure in our lives.
FEEL BAD FOR US YET?

Trying to sit up...
I tried to make this picture bigger, but it wouldn't. This size will have to do! I tried to get them to sit up as best as they could. It's so funny cause we still think they look sooo little trying to sit up. As you can see Chrissy is getting hair. Kayla does have some hair, but it it hard to see. They are soo cute and make me laugh everyday. Love them soo much!

Take a Bite out of That!
I am quite sad that my girls have been cursed with my legs. As most of you know I have been very insecure with my legs since Jr. High. When I took this picture of Chrissy and Kayla, I realized that they had my legs.. I'm sooo sorry girls! I will start apologizing now because hopefully when they are of age to care about what they look like, they will forgive me!
Apparently Chrissy was hungry because she tried several times to eat Kayla's butt... It was quite amusing... I think Kayla just thought it tickled. Maybe Chrissy was doing it because that morning Kayla was sucking on Chrissy's hair when I went to get them out of their crib.. Who knows! Again I'm not going to try to figure out my children.
Get off my face......
Cameron thinks he needs to sit on the cupboard when I'm cooking once in awhile. He loves to get in the fruit bowl and pick out what to eat. And this day he happened to want an orange. I wasn't the happiest with his selection because I hate peeling oranges and Rory was at work, so that left me to peel it. I LOVE eating them but I hate how the orange peel gets under your fingernails. I know, I'm odd.
The other picture is Cameron sitting on my face. I lay down on the kitchen floor once in awhile because my back hurts from time to time and this day Cameron thought it would be funny to sit on my face. When I told him to "Get off my face," he thought I was trying to be funny. That just made him want to sit on my face even longer. Don't understand why, but I'm not even going to try to figure out a 3 year old!

Such a big girl...
It is kind of weird to make a post of Chrissy without Kayla, but I had to show some cute pictures of Chrissy sucking on her toes, sitting up, and one of her playing with Cameron's doll. Yes-Cameron does have a doll. I bought it for him a couple of years ago (with approval of his daddy), so he could become soft and familiar with having a little baby (now babies) around. The sad thing about twins is we or I am constantly comparing the two on each milestone. For instance, Chrissy lifted her head up first, Kayla soon followed. Kayla rolled over first, Chrissy soon followed. Chrissy has hair, Kayla is as bald as Papa. Chrissy can sit up, Kayla can sit up very fragile like. I know, I know, you really shouldn't compare your children, "everyone is different and everyone does things on their own timeline," I've heard it all before. Shame on me!
