Individual Tastes

They share a mother, a father, a birthdate, a bedroom...but they have VERY different tastes. For example, today at lunch:
Ryan ate all of his toast and left the plums...
...while Allie ate all of her plums and left the toast.
They did both eventually end up eating everything on their tray (which doesn't normally happen...).
We are also having a snow day and the twins enjoyed looking at the falling snow.
And tasting the window...

Isn't it delightful to see the world through fresh eyes? Everything (even cold windows) is so exciting!
P.S. I took these pictures with my phone so the quality isn't stellar...

Its precious seeing them looking out the window and tasting to see what its all about. As long as she doesn't try it on a metal pole or something close to it. love you , gigi

Yes, yes, yes, it is pure joy to see the world again from little ones eyes!! Such in-the-moment joy about simple things. They see the glory of God constantly and give us the opportunity to plug in again with so many precius things that we overlook and take for granted. Life is good! Happy packing!!! Happy with your Mom time! G-gran

Precious little hands on the window. Snow falling is God's way of brightening up our drab winter with his dancing snowflakes falling all around us. I think the twins will love playing in the snow next winter!! I think they like to keep you guessing and playing little tricks on you. One eating plums and one eating toast. This is all so funny. I think maybe that is what they were talking about the other night in their cribs when you seen them looking at each other. :) SO SO Fun, So so blessed. Hugs from Nana
Have fun in Boston Gigi, I know it will be alot of work too. See you all soon.
