The babies are teething and they are extra clingy lately. They are also increasingly mischievous. It is making it so difficult to do anything! They had their one year check-up on Thursday and they're doing really well. Both of them are about 24 lbs. Brie is 30 1/2 inches and Cami is 29 1/2. The doctor followed up on the plans to remove Cami's dermoid cyst, she's having that surgery on July 6th. It's fairly common in infants apparently.
We have been enjoying the drive-in the last little bit. We went to see Spiderman III a few weeks ago and Thursday night we went to see Shrek 3. Maddie loves it. The other night she was so excited she pulled together everything we could possibly need (including bandaids) on her own. The babies fell asleep as Spiderman started but they enjoyed watching Shrek with us.
Saturday I had a training meeting with Heritage Makers. It was great! I got a lot of good ideas and I'm so excited about it. Aaron had to work Saturday so I took the kids to my parents' house for the day. We met up at IKEA for the exchange at the end of the day and when I got there my mom said "I don't know HOW you do this on your own all the time!" My sister laughed that it took five people to do what I do by myself - my parents, my sister and brother and my brother's fiance were all helping with the girls all day. snicker
Speaking of Heritage Makers, the book I made for Maddie came on Friday. Yesterday she asked if I would read it for her bedtime story. When we finished she said "This is such a beautiful book Mom, thanks for making it for me." Awww! I'm excited to work on some other projects. I'd love to do a book about Aaron's mom and dad - I need to drill his aunts for information. There's a lot of stuff I am afraid we will never know so I want to put as much of what we have together. I also want to do the twins' first year digital scrapbook. I suppose I will be an insomniac yet. :)

Where is her cyst at? Ashlee has one on her left eyebrow, but we never had it removed. I hope we don't regret doing that, but it's not as obvious as it was once then. Good luck with her surgery!
