The Days of I

If you were around the twins from the time they started talking, you know that they called each other "I" (or "eye" or "ai" or any other way it could be spelled...we're not sure what they meant). Anyway, about 6 months ago Corinne began calling Emma by her name, but Emma continued calling Corinne "I".

Well, as of the past few days we've heard her say "Co-win" many times. It seems that those precious days of one of our favorite memories of the twins being toddlers is passing. Now be sure that if Emma is highly irritated or excited, Corinne is still "I"! :)



Here's a photo of them eating dinner with their bicycle helments on (am I THAT bad of a cook!?) and one of Emma "brushing" Corinne's teeth when Mommy isn't looking (or so they thought). To keep my name clear, I had just brushed their teeth but not put away the toothbrushes.

Nate did the very same thing to Ben. It was as if Ben was an extension of Nate for a while.

Awww, good-bye "I" and hello "Co-win!" We had no idea the Freeland dinner table was a combat zone.

Never underestimate the benefits of good oral hygiene. Good work, girls.

Love,

Who are those two big girls in these pictures and what did you do with the two babies??!! It looks like the girls are not only a good example of safe riders, but also of oral hygiene. Now, I don't know about the hygiene, but I'm pretty sure the other will get you a discount on your insurance in the future. You have trained them well, Sabrina.
