I can't believe it is October. September was full of visits from grandparents and the twins (and their parents) loved it! I've thrown in a couple of other pictures of how we have been passing the time :)
Penelope loves climbing up onto chairs, even when she is naked!!
The twins have learned about prayer - they learned from Grandpa up in Alaska. At every meal they fold their arms and whine until we say a prayer, its pretty cute!!
Apparently, we are also trying to raise concert pianists:
One of our new favorite places is Balboa Park. The kids LOVE the fountain: they have people to watch; and some of those people have dogs so its a perfect place for the kids. There is also a big playground. It has become our Sunday afternoon tradition to go spend a couple hours there. Here is Parker in front of the fountain doing his 'fish' face; he often wears this face when he is concentrating.
Here is Grandpa Randall with the twins. Look at all the Cougar fans!!
Here is Grandma Randall with the twins just a hour after she arrived. We were all impressed how fast they warmed up to her.
Penelope loves her Grandma Ballentine; we are so glad because Tory and I got to get away for a weekend while my parents took over twin parenting duty. The twins didn't even care we were gone, they had such a good time with Grandpa and Grandma.
Here is Penelope with Grandpa Ballentine: she is comfortable enough to rest her hand on his leg. She loves her Grandpa!!
The twins watched dad mow the lawn and wanted to help:
Parker likes his new pjs too:
My sweet baby girl:
My cute baby boy: 
Smiles all around:
How I love my darling twins. I hope they do all right when their little brother is born......oh yes, I'm pregnant. It came as quite a shock, I guess that is why you get 9 months to prepare. We have until the end of the year to prepare for having 3 kids under the age of two. Oh good heavens, we are in trouble....
