Sometimes I don't realize how much they have grown until I look at these monthly pictures. These two are crazy, they are into everything they can get into, toilet paper, cat food anything in an unlocked drawer. They both are constantly taking off their socks and chewing on them. Lauren can routinely be seen walking around with a sock hanging out of her month. Someday I'm hoping Colin can go about his day bib less, I'm hoping before kindergarten he will learn to close his mouth and stop all that crazy drooling. They are still great eaters although they are becoming more picky each day, something they loved 2 days ago is no longer good today. Fruit is still their favorite, bananas for Lauren, oranges for Colin. Both of had miserable colds for the last month, Colin just finished antibiotics for an ear infection. The snot and coughs did temporarily go away only to return 3 days later for both of them. I've come to terms with the fact that for the next probably 2 months of winter we will all be miserable! These two test our patience daily but the good sure outweighs the bad!
