Denise's Blog .... An Optimist at Heart

Fast Forward 2 years ... LOL

So needless to say, I was not a very good pregnancy blogger! BUT all those "implantation" thoughts certainly worked, as Michelle Elizabeth and James Connor were born on October 13, 2006, 7 minutes apart.

I loved being pregnant and had a very easy and uneventful 8.5 months. I sometimes miss feeling them kick and move inside me (not that they don't try to make up for it by kicking me and crawling all over me now, LOL).

They are now 20 months old and are just the light of our lives. We sometimes cannot believe how perfect they are, and how their personalities are forming. Michelle is NON-STOP, she is always moving and plotting. She is extremely clever and likes to copy whatever she sees. She is the mastermind of the two and enjoys the role. James is just a sweet boy, he follows Michelle and copies whatever she's doing, and wants whatever she has. He is more calm and peaceful - he is happy sitting playing, until he sees her causing a commotion elsewhere decides he wants to join in on the fun!

They are both talking and trying to hold conversations with everyone. They answer questions and try to tell "stories". The best is watching them read books to each other - they point out all of the animals/objects on the page and then imitate them (animal noises are their FAVORITE).

I'm going to start keeping a log of our adventures and of any cute pictures we take of them. We don't always do exciting things, but sometimes they'll just look so adorable I just want to share!
