Caught in the act!

One of Lilybug's favorite things to do is play video games...or at least try to. She loves to pull our Super Nintendo off of the entertainment center by yanking on the controller wires. Here she is caught in the act of once again trying to sneak and play Mario Brothers.
















Here is a pic of Bubba doing his famous pirate face. You should feel lucky...most people have to pay for this.
















Recently Kickboxer's brother came to visit.Here's a pic of the babies hanging out with each other.
















Here is another day of Bubba hanging out with his twin.















This video we have posted is hilarious! It looks like a crime scene. We had just got done running some errands and the munchkins were pooped!

Lilybug is crawling! Well....kinda











Yup our little darling is moving around on her own. Exciting? Yes but she is crazy. What's awesome is she doesn't quite do the traditional crawl..she does more of a propelling motion to get around. But that does fit her personality..she doesn't have time for her arms and legs to move as fast as she wants them to. Here is a video of her and also if you listen carefully you can here the sweet sound of my hubby singing "I'm so excited" towards the end of the vid. I don't think he knew that I was taping but I"m sure glad we captured it on video. Lilybug also got her first tooth a little over a month ago. A couple weeks ago we attempted to give Bubba a mohawk and we kinda botched it so we decided to shave it all off but not before taking some pictures! He was having a fit when we were giving it to him so in the pics he ended up looking like a punker on drugs or having withdrawals or something. Brandon is a punk rocker..Brandon is a punk rocker..Brandon is a punk rocker now!!!!

Christmas Day!!!! Yippee!!!
















I love Christmas!!! So much so that I kinda appreciate the ghetto people that keep their lights up all year so I continuously feel the Christmas spirit :) Well here's our Christmas pics. Bubba decided he wanted to cuddle with Mama Christmas morning which was the best gift I could have ever gotten. Here is also a pic with my fav gift from my old man..thanks Kickboxer..you're the best! And the one with Lilybug and her toy is her gift from her Auntie Gigi...her Aunt is trying to influence her early with her girliness. Well she has to get it from somewhere..thanks Auntie Gigi.

Christmas Eve
















Well as per tradition we went to Mimi and Papa's for Christmas Eve. Then we had our own family tradition Christmas morning from Santa and then went to my parents Christmas day. We had a great Christmas being around lots of family with lots of love. Lilybug enjoyed just being allowed to tear up the wrapping paper and Bubba enjoyed the actual act of opening his gifts to see what he got. One of my favorite gifts was a Cutco garlic press from Mimi and Papa. Sweetness! We have so many cute pics I have to make separate posts for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Here is also a pic of Lilybug hanging up her ornament.

Some more aquarium pics







Here is a couple other pics of the aquarium including a beautiful smiling ray and more Palau pics.

Aquarium of the Pacific
















For Bubba's birthday we decided to have a low key birthday party and put the money into taking him to the aquarium in Long Beach. Well, we got even luckier because Mimi and Papa decided to treat Bubba and us and pay for the trip. Thanks Mimi and Papa! The trip was awesome! Before we went I was hoping to see the sea horses and sea turtles and I got what I hoped for. Bubba was amazed the second we stepped in. Right away we saw this wall of fish from Palau! That's one of the reasons I have always wanted to go. Well, we thought that was it but it wasn't. Later on when we were looking for the sea turtles and we found a whole hallway dedicated Palau. It was amazing! It was so weird to even see the word Palau and the plaques let alone the Rock Island aquarium! Bubba also got to pet a shark which he loved. One other cool thing that we saw at the aquarium was the sea dragons. So flippin cool! If you didn't know what was in there they could have easily passed as seaweed. They were beautiful. Here are some pics I hope you enjoy them.
