Breakfast
Every morning, as soon as these guys wake up, they're hungry and want a bottle. So I quickly make them each one, and they lay on the living room floor with each other gulping it down. Usually I can get diapers changed while they chow, and breakfast made for Izzy and I as well. But these were too cute one day to not take some pictures of.

Loon Mountain Vacation
We just got back from our annual week in the White Mountains of New Hampshire with Steve's family. Here's pictures from our week away.
The family at the Mt. Washington Hotel overlooking the scenic White Mountains.
Grandma Introne with Izzy.
What a cutie-pie! She loved the old-fashioned wooden rocking chairs on the patio at the hotel.
Just call him POPEYE THE SAILOR MAN! He's developed this affinity for sucking on french fries - doesn't eat them, just sucks on them.
What a happy girl!
Our big adventures this week were getting the kids outdoors. We went hiking a couple of times. The twins rode in backpacks and Izzy walked. She did all the hiking on her own - walking 2-miles one day, and 1.5 miles another day. The trails weren't hard, but there were some elevation changes. We were so proud she hiked that far on her own, but it wore her out! She's never slept so well!
At the Lincoln Woods trail.
Mommy carried Emily on the hikes.
Zach rode on Daddy's back...
...and of course fell asleep half-way through the hike!
Checking out a stream along the way.
Our other big outdoor activity was biking. We rented bikes with the baby trailers behind them. Z&E rode in one behind Steve, Izzy rode behind Melissa (and carried all the gear and lunches.) We did a 13-mile tour that took us down the Franconia Notch and through the town of Lincoln, NH.
There were a couple steep downhills, and we figured they cuddled up, grabbed on to each other and went to sleep to try and forget about how fast daddy was taking them down the hill!
At one point on the trail, we stopped to check-out a lake.
Overall, we had a great week. The kids are playing together so well these days!

Twins' 1st Birthday
Zach and Emily had their first birthday this weekend. Here's a few pics from their party. We were on vacation up in NH in the White Mountains, so it was just the family. We had dinner out, and then fun with cake when we got back to our resort.
Zach's not too sure about this stuff.
Of course our little garbage compactor scarfed it down - then ate all of Zach's piece as well!

Family Pictures
We just had new family pictures taken. It was craziness. When Steve and I were in the shot, it was fine, because we could hold the babies. Trying to do the kids alone was impossible. They kept trying to jump or crawl off the table. We only got 1 shot of all 3 together - thankfully it came out pretty good. Trying to do them individually was just as bad. Couldn't get Emily or Isabelle to sit still at all. Zach was the only one that lasted more then 2 seconds!
