Here are my handsome boys


This is my Jackson, although he is more often called Jack or Jackie Mackie. He is the oldest by 1 minute and has been the biggest by just a little bit all along in weight and height.
As you can tell he is the fashion forward one of the family, sporting Daddy's knit hat and an Elmo backpack. This is a must have look for playing in the cardboard box that he loves so much (see background in picture). He is a sweetheart and loves to run, jump/ bounce, and play with buttons that he can push- anything with buttons, and can cook up a mean plastic dinner in his play kitchen! Jack has a terrific memory and he is a very determined little boy (which can be both good and not so good at times). Jack can talk up a storm and you know when its too quiet you are in for trouble, because chances are he has found some trouble. He loves to color and can scribble out some beautiful masterpieces.




This is my Quentin, although he is more often called Quent, Quentie, or Quentie-bug. He is the younger boy, but you wouldn't be able to tell by the way he tries to run the show.
Quent is the love bug of the family and is often telling everyone "I yuv you!" He is the book lover of the family and if you will read to him he will happily listen. His current literary favorites are 'Cookie See, Cookie Do', really anything sesame street, his Cars books, and Curious George. Quent has always had a special affection for his "buddy" (so does his brother), the cloth diaper that he sleeps with and luckily for us any cloth diaper can be a buddy! Quent is a singer and likes to jibber jabber, although most of his language is easy to understand. He is our obsessive boy and he clings to the things he loves the best like, Cookie Monster, Cars, Handy Manny and Curious George.

So, here is just a little of the highlights of what there is to know about my Jack and Quent.
They are incredibly busy boys that keep my days busy and exciting, if not crazy at times. I am a lucky Mom to have such beautiful, smart and really funny little men. There are those times where I just want to cry in frustration over toddler twin trials, but there are many more where those tears are just in awe at how wonderful, silly, and loved these boys really are!
