Who let the dogs out?

This morning while playing with Avery and Riggs, I put "Who let the dogs out?" on my iPhone and the twins went crazy dancing.  Both Avery and Riggs wanted to hold my phone while the music played, so I gave Riggs Anne's phone so they would each have one.  Smart boy knew that his was not playing the music, so he pulled the ol' switcheroo on his sister (see second video) and got ahold of the "good" iPhone.

Playing at Aunt B's

Yesterday after school Anne had an important errand to run and need help with the twins.  I eagerly offered to watch them since it has been so long since they have come over to play!   The kids had a great time playing and Charlotte loved having more "students" around to play school. 

Looks like Riggs and Avery take after their mama!

But not too surprising, Avery won out and got the treasured toy!

Aunt B, how do I eat this cheese and suck on my nu-nu?

Let's see...like this?

Why isn't this working!?

Much better.  One at a time.

Riggs loved his "ball" (a balloon) and loved tossing it up in the air.

The coolest cook in town.

What?  This is how Aunt Clair does it.

Poor Riggs had enough of these loud ladies and kept running to the front door.  He would hang on the door handles and cry, "Mama!  Mamaaaaa!"

Trying to put on the sun glasses like Sister.

One handsome dude!

Avery watching Charlotte eat very closely.  She studied Charlotte for a good two minutes before she tried eating her own dinner.

Okay, okay. I think I can do this.

Success!  BIG bite!

Riggs on the other had needed me to load his spoon, but after that he took over....unless Aunt B happened to put a carrot on his spoon. He is not a fan of carrots and would shoo away any spoonful that had a visible carrot.

Big bite for Riggs.  Either he is scared of my cooking or he tasted the carrot I snuck in there.  I'm going with the carrot!

Hey!  Where did all those loud girls go?

Shhhh...don't tell them I am enjoying the peace and quiet.

Playing Down da Bayou

Anne and the twins came Down da Bayou last Friday so Anne could come to my sister's grand opening party for her new office. 

Avery, very much her mother's daughter, made herself right at home and had a blast playing.  She especially loved the stroller Tutu has for the baby dolls. 

Oooh, a stroller!

I love it!

She also enjoyed checking out the pool and that cute little girl in the window.

Hey there little girl!

How 'bout a kiss?

And of course when it was time for her to head home, she had to say "Bye, bye!" to all her peeps. 

"Buh-bye!  Buh-bye!"

Dinner with the May Flowers

Avery, can I please have a bite? - Maggie

I don't know, what do you thing Aunt B? - Avery

Nahhhh!

(Notice Maggie's drool!)

Handsome Riggs

While I was taking a few shots of Riggs, Avery was not happy about it.  She started demanding that I look her way and was YELLING at me.  So, I turned and saw this face....

Hey Aunt B!  Aren't I adorable?!

And a total ham!

Oh, my sister is such a diva! - Riggs

Tiger or Wildcat?

Anne and the twins came over to visit this afternoon and I got some adorable shots of the twins...as usual! 

Born to be a Tiger!

Me too!

Naaaah.  I'm a Wildcat!  Take these off!

Traitor.

What?! I'm not the sassiest girl in the house?

Whoa!  Hard to keep your balance when you look this cool.

Hey Maggie, let's go on a hunt.

Down da Bayou fun

We all went Down da Bayou for Ryker's first birthday.  While Anne helped Kelly with setting up for the party and Tim went golfing, the twins hung out with me, my girls, and my 3 nieces.  They had a blast!

Aunt B, I will walk to that street!  You can't stop me!

Riggs laughing at the big girls tumbling.

Double the trouble

Friday morning I watched the twins while Anne ran a quick errand (and for those of you wondering if she ever helps me out...she does.  That afternoon, in fact.  She just doesn't blog about it!).  Anne wasn't gone for two seconds before Avery and Riggs were up on our mini trampoline. 

Double the trouble!

Can we jump like the big girls?

Please Aunt B!

Try to say no to my big, bright eyes.

This is so much fun!

And boy does it feel good on the gums.

Good idea Riggs.

What?! It's not for teething?

Frances comforting Riggs after I picked up the trampoline. 

Hamming it up for Aunt B

The Ryan's are back from their vacation and the May Flowers are finally better from their nasty cold, so it was time for some much needed playing with Aunt B!  I of course had to take a million pictures while we played.  Enjoy!

Tasty block

Aunt B! I am so happy to see you!

Hmmm...I think I caught something!

How do I get these things on my head?

Cool Riggs rockin' the shades.

Me too!

Doo...doo...doo!

Decisions, decisions!

I guess I will pick this pair.

Argh!  No this pair!

What a princess!
