a little news

after much thought i have decided it is time for abcde plus two to go private. i feel that as a mother now i need to do a better job in protecting my children from the internet. i have gone back and forth since they were born and finally have chosen to go private. 

since becoming a mother i have reevaluated my choices and realized blogging isn't what it used to be for me. it used to be a good hobby for me, it now is something i enjoy every now and then. my days are pretty busy with two 6 month olds in the house. i will be using this as a place to keep everyone updated on our crazy life with twins. if you would like to follow along please send me your email to erykaann88@gmail.com. 

i will hopefully have the switch done this weekend. thank you for all those who have followed along with my journey these past few years. i hope that you still follow along!

these two have grown so much this last month. they are looking more like kids and it is scary. this mama cannot believe how fast time is going. henry is now in boots and bar 12 hrs and has free time during the day. this kid is a roller. he is basically moible. he has also started getting on his knees sometimes. oh man im in for it! campbell still rolls when she feels like it, my picky girl. she also loves screaming for fun! they are so big and so fun right now. i am loving this stage. they take regular naps 3x a day and sleep well at night {expect for this last week...we are having some issues. and im exhausted!} i thought it would be fun to write down our schedule for my memory....

twins schedule at 6 months
6-7am | wake up and lay in mommy and daddys bed {dad leaves at 7 for work}
7am | first bottle {6 oz} 
730-830am | play time or go for a walk with mama 
830-10am | nap time {sometimes they go down at 8 just depends on their mood} 
10 am | bottle time {6 oz} and get dressed {sometimes we do before this or sometimes we dont haha} 
10:30-11:30 | play time {watch a show, play toys or whatev|}
11:30-1pm | nap time 
1pm | bottle {5-6 oz} + solids
1:30-2:30 | play time 
2:30-4 | nap time {this nap is usually the shortest or the longest it just depends} 
4 pm | bottle {5-6 oz}
4:30-7pm | play time and daddy gets home at 5. {if its bath night then we do baths after solids at 7}
