NYE at the Burns' House

9:45 pm:Don't be jealous. Tyler snoring on the couch, the girls snug in their cribs, and me watching a movie on Netflix. Good times. My how things have changed! I honestly wouldn't have it any other way. Well, it might have been nice if Tyler was awake. :) But don't worry, I woke him up at midnight and made him say "Happy New Year."

Happy New Year to all of you!

Rollin'

Elle: Hey Mom, look what I can do!
Kate: Hey yeah, me too Mom! I'll do it twice and then when you get the camera out, I'll act like I'm entirely too busy eating my hand to roll over.

So without further adieu, here's Elle - rolling over! And hopefully soon, we'll capture Kate doing it.

Misheard Lyrics: Christmas Edition

I know Tyler is so glad that he and his misheard lyrics continue to be fodder for my blog. It makes me laugh so hard though, that I feel I need to share with everyone.

We were listening to the Carpenters "Home for the Holidays" yesterday and here is Tyler's version of it:

I met a man who lived in Tennessee
And he was 7 foot 4.

AHAHAHAHAHA. I had to sit down I was laughing so hard. Actual lyrics:

I met a man who lived in Tennessee
And he was headed for...

He said "I was wondering why there was such a tall man in Tennessee." We grow them big there, honey. That's why.

That guy cracks me up. Every day.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Elle(ephant)

Hmm...what is this? Whatever it is, I bet it's delicious.



















Yep, I was right - it IS delicious!















Clearly, Elle doesn't miss many meals.

Talking

So the girls' have started to acknowledge each others existence more and are even "talking" to each other! Except usually it's really just Kate talking and Elle looking at her like she has much better things to be doing. See video below - Elle did actually smile and acknowledge Kate's jabbering, but didn't do much talking back!

In other news - Elle is LOVING standing up right now. The girl is strong as an ox. She will just hang out standing, looking around, for as long as you'll hold her there. Kate however, knows she's got a good thing going with being held and will only stand for a few seconds at a time when she feels like it. She does, however, love tummy time. Elle usually acts like she's being put through some sort of torture after about 5 minutes. They are both doing great sitting and holding their heads up and are smiling and laughing all over the place. So far, I think 3 month old's rock.
