LOL. I haven't taken a picture with flash in SO long, that these looked funny to me!

Caught Ya!

Look who I caught standing on her own again! Natalie is still not too keen on the whole standing idea. Rather, she's very unsure of how to get down once she stands up.

Wow, Natalie! from Jen Foster on Vimeo.

Wish List Wednesday

I have an ever growing list of books that I keep meaning to read - but never seem to find the time. What are the top four books waiting for you to pick up?

1. The White Queen - Philippa Gregory
Ok, I'm cheating by putting this on here. I actually have this book and am on page 20. I've loved most of Gregory's other work, so I do have high hopes for this one.


2. The Lost Symbol - Dan Brown
I loved Angels & Demons (still haven't seen the movie) and wasn't all that impressed with Da Vinci Code - but I hope this one is ok. I'm actually borrowing it from my mom to read next.


3. REAL Ultimate Power: The Official Ninja Book
Because I've always wanted to hone my ninja skills


4. Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters
I read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, so this one is the next in the "series"


Want to play along? Pick the top four books you want to read, and post them on your blog! Grab the Wish List Wednesday button here:

What Are They Eating?

I thought I'd take some time to record just what the girls are eating. I know when they first started solid foods, I was completely clueless. Now that they each have 8 teeth (and I swear Audrey is starting on molars), they really can eat most anything. Now, Bryan and I are both picky, sometimes unhealthy eaters. If we eat pizza for dinner, I make sure the girls eat something a little healthier.

Breakfast:

Stage 2 fruits + oatmeal. Yep, they still eat baby food!
Eggo whole wheat waffles
Scrambled eggs
Yo Baby Yogurt (I personally am in love with the Apple flavor)
Toast with a little butter and cinnamon
Pancakes
Fresh fruit (I usually buy a tub of pre-cut fruit at the grocery store that include watermelon, cantaloupe, pineapple, honey dew and strawberries)


Lunch:
Chicke, turkey or ham deli meat (grown w/out antibiotics)
Shredded cheese
Fresh fruits
Stage 2 veggies (though they refuse the green ones now)
Gerber Graduates Mac n Cheese
Beechnut Chicken n Stars
Peanut Butter sandwhich
Grilled Cheese


Snacks:
Gerber Puffs, Lil Crunchies, and Wagon Wheels
Earth's Best organic graham crackers
Cheerios
Plum Organics apple carrot fiddlesticks
Revolution Foods organic mashups


Dinner:
Pretty much anything goes! We'll often give them some of what we eat, if it isn't too spicy or unhealthy.
Turkey Franks
Portobello Veggiburgers
Sweet potato fries
Annie's Organic Mac n Cheese
Tyson chicken tenders
Frozen peas & carrots (these are AWESOME)
Fresh fruit


Of course, I couldn't type out EVERYTHING that they eat - but this is a pretty good start. What are your toddlers eating??
