A season of Thanksgiving

So my posts are a little behind, but here they are, nonetheless :) We had a full November, and celebrated birthdays, along with a day of Thanksgiving. Natalie & Kennedy are fun, as always, and are doing something new all the time and keeping us and each other entertained. Natalie is standing and has taken a few steps, likes pointing to her head, and loves chasing Kennedy around the living room. Kennedy points to what she wants and likes to push the corn popper, while practicing walking. Both are babbling, and Natalie's favorite phrase is "dooka-dooka." Both girls can hold their bottles and feed themselves. They love trying new foods, and pretty much want anything mommy and daddy are eating. They like bath time and could play in the tub all night. They got a play kitchen as an early birthday present and they have really enjoyed pretending to bake pies and fry eggs :) Any time music comes on, they both will start bobbing up and down and "dancing" and it is the cutest thing ever!
In other news, Joel & I finally got our upstairs cleaned up and baby proofed and it makes for an awesome play room!!! We have a big bonus room upstairs, that had a ping pong table, and random furniture, along with old baby stuff. We have been wanting to get it organized for quite some time, and so this weekend we were able to tackle it, while Mimi came over to help with the girls. We are proud of our accomplishment and Natalie and Kennedy really like playing up there and enjoy all the space they have to crawl around!
Our daughters are so, so sweet and we love every second we spend together! The girls constantly make us laugh, and we can't help but shower them with lots of hugs and kisses.
They seem to get cuter with each passing day, and soon we will be celebrating their first birthday with our families!!! We are truly grateful for all God has graciously given us and praise Him for our many blessings!

Natalie's standing up pose cracks me up! They are so so so precious - can't believe they are almost one!
