18 Months!

I say it every time I make an update, but man time sure does fly by!
It is hard to believe that Cash and Walker are 18 MONTHS OLD!
 
IT'S A TWIN THING!
 





 




We Both ARE...
*We turn 18 months old and our parents finally had us give up our Bottle - yes we were down to one bottle a night, we probably were ready to give this up several weeks/months before but or Mom and Dad just were cherishing the evenings of our nighttime routine, snuggle, bottle, and a book!
*We are wearing number 5 diapers (day and night - Pampers by Day; Huggies by night)
*we are still wearing 12 to 18 month shorts; shirts pretty much 18 month to 2T depending on the brand
*Eating like horses! We love food, we really aren't that picky - a few favs of both of us include: Watermelon, Meatballs, Veggie Balls (broccoli, sweet potatoes) Veggie Straws, Mimi's Strawberry jelly (on anything), Pizza, and Goldfish
*We are completely walking (and walking briskly much of the time)
*We love Mickey Mouse Club
*We both have to be "held" if the other one is being "held" - guess its a twin thing
*We LOVE Our Cousins! We got to spend lots of time with them on vacation and we loved chasing them, hugging them, and playing with all their cool toys!
*Great Sleepers - bedtime between 7 and 8 pm (depending on the day); up in the morning btwn 7 and 9:30 (yeah at times we like to sleep in)!
*Love Baths!
*Love Paint and Markers
*Down to one nap a day normally around 2 hours (some days shorter some days longer)
*Babbling a lot- and saying a few select words "Mama" and "Dada" and "Shoe"
*LOVE outside - we love parks, playgrounds, the driveway, water, making messes (and cleaning them up), getting dirty, hide and seek and playing chase!
*We love having each other to play with (most of the time) on occasion we do like to be the "only child" for a few moments here and there

Walker
 


 
 
 *Loves to cuddle
*Currently I like to be right by my mom at all times if she is anywhere near (sorry Daddy these days your chump change when my mom is around)!
*I love to do the "white boy dance" - I stand and bounce anytime there is music on and I gotta say I am pretty darn cute when I am dancing!
*Love to "read books"
*I constantly Babble in the most adorable voice ever - everyone would love to know what I am saying, they will figure it out one day!
*I LOVE FOOD!  Yes my brother likes to eat, but I Really, Really love to eat!  Breakfast is one of my favorite meals...bring on the eggs, bacon, biscuits with Mimi's strawberry jelly and I am a happy camper
*I have been known to "bite" my brother - my parents think this is my "self defense" for being the littler of us two...
*I am pretty passive and share and give up my toys most of the time to Cash; but when I am tired I am a bit more sensitive and like lots of attention!
*Haven't had my 18 month check-up yet, but I bet I am around 23 lbs or so
*I am wearing a size 5.5 shoe currently
*I do love my brother but I also love spending a few moments by myself with my Mom and Dad
*I am honestly a very, very happy "baby" most every day (unless I am tired or someone did not feed me enough)! I have an adorable smile and give the best hugs and kisses around!
 
CASH

 
 





 *So I am probably around 25 lbs of solid muscle
*I love to lift, pummel, or throw anything in my way
*I have a contagious belly laugh that my parents tickle me over and over again just to hear!
*I am a lover of Milk - I probably would skip "food" if my parents let me and just guzzle Milk
*I am wearing a 6.5 shoe (and I am already starting out grow them)
*I am into everything
*I love to be the center of attention, middle of the party, and hate to miss any moments...I always need to know what my brother is doing
*I have been told I am not huge on "sharing" but I have been working on this and have been seen subtly giving my brother a toy, bring him a drink or offering him a snack out of my bowl
*I am WILD- I run around like a crazy animal at times (use my blanket over my head, trip, fall, and roll around laughing)
*I make some AWESOME faces - thanks Aunt Nat for giving me your "face making jeans"
*I have a partner in crime...my cousin Reese - look out world!
*I love ice cream
*I eat Pickles - even though I am not really sure if I like them
*I have no fears - I love the pool and throwing myself into the water (thank goodness for swim lessons)
 
 
Boys, we can't ever say it enough - You guys are...
 the Cherries on an Ice Cream Cone,
The Cream of the Crop,
You put the C and the W into Cash and Walker
and you are the LOVES of our Lives!
 
Happy 18 Months!

 
 

CASH & WALKER you are TWINTASTIC MASTERPIECE!!
