I love this picture of R. I took it with my new camera this weekend and it really brings out everything. I think that he would win the Ugliest Baby of the Year with this photo. He wasn't upset or anything, but I caught him not in his best pose. Just to prove that he really is a very handsome boy, I'm including 2 pictures that Cindi took of him a few weeks ago.
What the boys are doing this week: I know I'm leaving memorable milestones out, but they do so much that I can't keep track of it.
L continues to add new words to his vocabulary, like "please" and "baa" (like a sheep).
We have also started time-out with them. When they get into something that they shouldn't, I give them a warning and tell them that the next time they do it, I'll put them in their bed. It really has worked pretty well, especially for L. I don't know what I'll do once they figure out how to climb out of their beds, hopefully by then they'll understand a "naughty spot" (I love Super Nanny).
The boys had their 18 month checkup on Friday. They are both the same length at 31 1/2 inches. L weighs 31 lbs. 3 oz (95%) and R weighs 27 lbs 14 oz (it may be 28, I cant remember) and his in the 75%. I met a woman at Target this week with two little girls and I asked how old they were. One was 15 months old. I told her that my boys were 18 months and much bigger. I laughed and said it is so embarrassing having L at the 95%. She said that it is embarrassing having her little girl at the other end. She is only 14 lbs at 15 months and is the negative percentile. I definitely prefer my boys at the high end. They are healthy and look it, too.
Today is my last day of school, so the packing begins tomorrow! I'll be back for 2 weeks after Christmas, but then we're off. I'm so sad that the time has come so quickly. I will truly miss everything about our home and where we live. But we'll definitely miss Cindi the most of all :(

first of all, your babies are beautiful!! and I love it when they get food stuck to their faces! my B will have string bean on his cheek or his eyebrow. isn't it amazing what they can do with their food!
Now you've gone and made me cry...I was perfectly happy living in denial! I think you're going to have to pry them out of my arms on their last day! Hugs and Merry Christmas!
