Twins turn 4

Liam and Dash on their 4th birthday!

Showing how old they are!

Lucky for them they got to go to preschool on their birthday!

Liam

Dashiell

They got birthday crowns at preschool

 Since Liam says he LOVES kitties, he got a kitty cupcake

And Dash LOVES dogs so I thought I'd be able to get a dog cake topper but this was the best I could find, a dog driving a firetruck (Marshall from the show Paw Patrol which both boys love). Notice the fingerprints in the frosting, Dash may have taken a couple swipes before we were ready to do cake...

Since our kitchen was under construction, I had to take the cupcakes to a neighbors to bake and then we had the party at Grandma Williams house.

Grandma Talley got the boys each a stuffed Paw Patrol toy which they both insisted on sleeping with that night.

Liam and "Chase"

Dash and "Zuma"

They are getting so big and do the cutest drawings!

Liam- loves the color orange, Superman, and kitties. He loves playing with Dash, his sisters and his friends- especially Dallin and Wesley. He is so lucky to be a twin because he loves to always be around other people. He likes going places with Mommy and playing with Daddy and when his sisters are home he follows them and wants to be doing whatever they are doing. He loves preschool and his teachers there. We have had trouble some days finding a shirt to wear when all of his shirts with either orange or Superman on them are dirty. He usually insists on wearing one of those!

Dash- still loves the color white, Batman and dogs. He has fun playing with his brother and sisters but he is also really good at playing by himself too. He builds cool things out of Magna-Tiles and playdough. He LOVES playing games on the iPad and other video games, especially Castle Crashers. He loves preschool and his friends as well, especially Dallin and Wesley. He is pretty calm and easy going most of the time unless you are trying to get him stop when he is in the middle of something (like building a tower, or lining something up or finishing a "level" of a video game) then he gets frustrated and upset. He gets scared when he is alone so he is always trying to get people to come with him in another room when needs to go get something (or go to the bathroom, haha). He has been having a hard time at night lately, he wakes up scared most nights. We have gotten to the point where we just leave a pillow and blanket on the ground next our bed so he can just lay down and go sleep when he comes in.

We love having these boys in our family! Having twins has had a lot of challenges but also so much fun and now that they are 4 and play so well together it is awesome! They have a built-in best friend and do a great job entertaining each other! Also, now that are big enough to start doing something themselves it is wonderful, I recently got them shoes that they can put on by themselves and switched to booster seats in the car so they can finally buckle themselves! I feel like I just added an hour of time to my day not having to put on shoes and buckle seat belts! When you are mom it is these little things that bring so much joy!
