AUGUST - NOVEMBER 2006
TWO LITTLE TURKEYS TO BE THANKFUL FOR
Thursday, November 23, 2006 - Erin and Colin had an awesome 1st Thanksgiving Holiday. They were well rested, very playful and entertained the entire family, especially Uncle Greg's horny dog Fred. They ate turkey, stuffing, potatoes, cranberries and all the fixen's. The family members in the above picture are Uncle Greg's in-laws, the Schraders. WELCOME Schrader Family to TreudeTwins.com. Check out the family shot below as Erin decided to play peek-a-boo when the photo was taken.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
WEDNESDAY, November 22, 2006 - The twins joined the Hars at Uncle Jack's house tonight to celebrate Grand mom and Grand pop's 37th wedding anniversary. Perhaps next year mommy and daddy will let Erin and Colin go out to the bars with the Harry's to celebrate Thanksgiving Eve. This year they were in bed early as a busy day was planned for Thanksgiving.


THE EAGLES MAY HAVE LET US DOWN BUT THE TWINS DIDN'T
SUNDAY, November 19, 2006 - As daddy and Uncle Jack sat in the cold seats at the Link to support the home team, the topic of conversation was centered around Erin and Colin. The Eagles were handed an embarrassing loss at the hands of one of the worst teams in the league and the crowd headed for the gates early. Once back in Aston, the twins were found at Grand moms and Grand pops house exploring the confines of the living room, kitchen and dining room. After dinner with special guests Terry, Tony and Cousin Lexey, it was play time with the little toddlers. Both Erin and Colin have be furniture walking for a few weeks now and should be walking on their own in another month or so.

This one is for the Kinnears who enjoy the pictures of the grandparents with the grand kids.

Time to put those pajama's on

All bundled up, ready to go home

LUNCH WITH AVA
FRIDAY, November 17, 2006 - Erin and Colin had a lunch date with Ava Kenny today. Ava wasn't very entertained by the twins shenanigans as she slept during the entire lunch, but Erin and Colin had fun with Uncle Jack and Mary. If you were able to view previous videos, CLICK HERE to view Colin attempting to eat his 1st ever lemon, it's very comical. Erin had a little easier time than Colin did in this video. 21 days and counting until the BIG 01.

Guess who is under this bucket hiding from Uncle Jack




YEP - WE ARE ONE MONTH SHY OF A YEAR
WEDNESDAY, November 8, 2006 - Can you believe how time flies when you are having sooooo much fun with a set of cool twins? Erin and Colin turned 11 months old today and celebrated by producing lots of snots. A huge birthday bash is scheduled for the BIG 01 and will include immediate family members only. If you haven't received your invite yet, it's because you are NOT invited. There will be plenty of pictures from the party to view on this site. We'll be thinking of you.


THE TWINS VISIT THE 2nd BEST IN DELCO
FRIDAY, November 3, 2006 - Erin and Colin paid a visit to the 2nd best fire company in Delaware County today. A special thanks to Parkside FC Station 45 Deputy Chief John Albany, and his wife Jan, for the awesome tour. Erin and Colin are greatly looking forward to visiting the best fire company in Delco very soon. Can someone contact Uncle Jack with this information?


HEY GRANDMA, NICE OUTFIT
HALLOWEEN 2006 (continued)- OK everyone, as you can see here, Colin and Erin aren't the only ones that enjoy Halloween. Click on the picture above to view more family Halloween pictures, including a few more of Erin and Colin.
Pictured above are Grandma, Colin, Erin and Aunt Joanne at Riddle Hospital on Halloween Day. Guess what the theme was for the Health Information Department.

TRICK OR TREAT OR TREUDE TWINS
HALLOWEEN 2006 - As Halloween night approaches.... Two cute little babies hurriedly put on their Halloween costumes while chattering away with delight in anticipation of their 1st trick or treat. The night will be filled with giggles and smiles and lots of candy. Erin and Colin will be approaching neighbors doors and will eagerly hold out their bags and nervously say, "trick-or-treat" for the first time. Then mommy and daddy will walk them home and tell ghost stories while they dig into their candy in sheer delight. All this, on the Treude Twins first Halloween night. Happy Halloween!
On another note, we would like to congratulate family friend Tom Jones and his wife Jeanne who recently announced they are pregnant with their 1st child.

EXCITEMENT BREWING FOR GHOST AND GOBLINS DAY
This is called sharing a book. Actually, after this picture was taken, Erin snatched it out of Colin's hands

This is called sharing a recliner. Actually, after this picture was taken, Erin pushed Colin onto the floor.
FRIDAY, October 27, 2006 - The twins are getting very excited for their 1st trick or treat adventure in Springfield. The costumes are picked out, final fittings are done and everything is ready to go. Check back later this weekend for those pictures, until then, here are a few snapshots from today to hold you over.

Colin practicing his scary face.


Missing, one white sock. Contact Erin Treude if you find it.

LET'S TRY SOME VIDEO

Let's play footsie
FRIDAY, October 13, 2006 - Ok folks, here we go... If you cannot view the video after clicking on the segment you would like to watch, I have no idea what to tell you. It will take SEVERAL minutes for each to load. Nothing too exciting here, just playing with the video capabilities of my digital camera with Erin and Colin. ENJOY!
1 - Colin crawling around
2 - Erin looking for the kittie cat
3 - Who wants the phone?
4 - Uncle Jack wants the phone
5 - Come and get your bottles
6 - Colin might be hungry

7 - Yep, Colin is hungry, feeding time
8 - Mommy's home

Yeah baby, the shirt says it all.
@10 months Mr. Colin is weighing in at 23lbs.

Wait for me, I'm still learning how to climb these steps.
@10 months Ms. Erin is weighing in at 22.5lbs.

SUNDAY October 8, 2006 - T.O. (Terrell Owens) came to town today to celebrate Erin and Colins 10 month birthday. Owens looked rather mad leaving for Dallas this evening as his Cowboys suffered a big defeat at the hands of Donovan McNabb and the Philadelphia Eagles. Prior to the game, the twins along with the Betzal family, visited Pumpkin Land at Linvilla Orchards. After a quick nap, Erin and Colin practiced singing the Eagles Fight Song which came in handy as the Eagles scored 38 points today. Finally, it was time to watch the big game. We all know how this one ended. Go Birds!
This month the twins learned to climb steps forcing mommy and daddy to install some new stair gates.

Notice big brother Colin's left hand in this picture. He has learned rather quickly how to annoy his younger sister.
Erin is learning just as quickly how to fight back and/or crawl away.

HAPPY 28th AUNT JILL (THE SISTER, NOT THE WIFE)
SATURDAY, September 16, 2006 - Erin and Colin's busy social schedule brought them to the Boathouse in Conshy tonight to celebrate Aunt Jill's birthday. The twins got a chance to practice blowing out the candles on the cake. It was obvious they have a long way to go in 2.5 months for their BIG 01!
"Hello, where are my picture books?"
"Oh, here they are"
"Allow me to pick that bugger for you Uncle Greg"
"I'll have the roast duck"
 
"Look at my belly, all full"
"Can you move these table toys closer to me please?"
 
Uncle Greg showing off his stylish new matching purse
(home at last) "TASTE GREAT.... LESS FILLING.....".

MINGLING WITH THE INTERBAY CROWD
FRIDAY, September 15, 2006 - Here are some pictures are from McGillan's Pub today. The twins got to meet and greet some of mommy's co-workers. Fun times with Jen from San Fran, Christian from L.A. and Donna from South Carolina. Congratulations to all, you can now tell your friends and family your picture finally made the most popular web site in the world.


A TREUDE TWINS SHOUT OUT....

GRAND MOM'S LITTLE HELPER
September 10, 2006 -Colin earned his keep at Grand moms house today by watering the flowers. It looks like he is a firefighter in training. Meanwhile, Erin enjoys standing in her crib and waving when she is suppose to be sleeping.

YOU MAKE THE CALL
September, 2006 -Do you think Ms. Erin looks like her mother? I count one more chin on mommy's baby picture. More to come on this developing story.

FRIDAY, September 8, 2006 -Happy Nine Months to Erin and Colin Treude. This month, Colin learned to chase Erin all around the living room floor simply to torture her. Erin feels much safer in the confines of her crib while Colin is in his crib and they shout across the room at each other. Colin thinks his crib is a bouncy toy and pulls himself up and starts jumping prior to going to sleep and after waking up. Today's 9-month mark celebration was held at Cousins Palma and Brian's house where the annual Cousins Cookout was held. Colin tried his 1st Molsen beer as cooks Brian and Timmy whipped up the ribs, dogs, burgers, chicken and all the fixen's. Don't forget to ask daddy how his date with Sir Charles went!
Click HERE for more cousins cookout pictures.


MORE MANCINI'S
September 1, 2006 - Congratulations to Kim and Dave Mancini on the birth of their 2nd child today. Vanessa Madeleine, mom, dad and big brother Andrew are all doing wonderful. Congrats!


FAMILY GETAWAY IN WEST WILDWOOD
August 24th - 27th, 2006 - The Treude family spent a long relaxing weekend down at the Betzal Family Beachouse in West Wildwood this weekend. Mommy and Daddy appreciated all the help they received with Erin and Colin. The twins loved being around their family, swimming in the pool and they thought the people watching on the boardwalk was 2nd to none. If you could have seen the Treude minivan when they were leaving Springfield, you would have thought they were moving their entire house across country. They barely had room to fit Erin and Colin after packing all the toys, pack-en plays etc. CLICK ON ANY OF THE BEACH PICTURES to view more fun pics, but I have to fair warn you, there are none of Uncle Jack.
THANKS AGAIN Uncle Dave and Aunt Dawn for letting us use the house, we had a blast!

SAVE THE DATE
August, 2006 - We are proud to announce the 1st annual Denny Treude Jr. Charity Golf Memorial to be played on Saturday, May 12th, 2007. The details are still being determined but basically it is Best Ball (aka- Shotgun) style competition that tee's off at 9am with lunch/beers and a silent auction afterwards. A lot of the details are being ironed out and flyers/registration forms will be available a few months prior to the event.

All proceeds will be donated to a charity, which is still being determined. Look for more information in the Fall.


WELCOME LITTLE AVA
WEDNESDAY, August 23, 2006 - Bob and Mary (Hasson) Kenney became the proud parents of a baby girl today. Ava Madeline Kenney was born at 10:40 PM at Riddle Hospital. She weighed in at 7.1 lbs and measured 20 inches long. Mother and Ava are healthy and resting comfortably after a long labor! We here at treudetwins.com think it's kind of boring to have just one baby at a time, but wish you all the luck and best wishes.

COUSINS WIFFLE BALL
SUNDAY, August 20, 2006 - Cousin Timmy organized a wiffle ball tournament today, complete with food, drinks and the aunts and uncles. Cousins Mark and Little Colleen earned the MVP awards and Uncle Chris is no longer able to move his bones after the 12 inning championship game, he's old and his team lost. Erin and Colin had fun playing with their cousins and Uncle Dan's new puppy. Click on the pictures below for MORE family pictures.

MORE CUTE PICS
AUGUST, 2006 - No reason for these, just some cute ones from the past week.....

THREE FIRSTS FOR THE TREUDES
AUGUST, 2006 - Pop-pop Treude was watching the kids a few weeks ago, went out for a stroll and low and behold, he gets a photo opportunity in the Springfield Press. This was the 1st time Erin, Colin or Pop-pop Treude ever had their picture in the newspaper. This picture is from the August 9, 2006 edition. Hey Mr. Treude, maybe next time you can ask the reporter to list www.treudetwins.com as a plug for the site and a chance for the public to see more cute pictures of Erin and Colin Treude.

SUNDAY DINNER, CAKE AND BATH TIME
SUNDAY, August 13, 2006 – The twins enjoyed a fun filled day at grandma and granpop's house today along with Aunt Linda, Uncle Joe and Cousin Timmy. They loved the ice cream cake compliments of Beth Graham and Uncle Joe which lead to fun bath times with Daddy's help.

Tuesday, August 8, 2006 – Erin is clapping her hands, coming up with new expressions everyday and now crawls backwards. Colin likes to crawl military style to any object so he can pull himself up on (as seen in the lower right picture). Erin has learned to get the heck out of his way because he stops for no one. Erin and Colin are loving their abilities to scoot around the living room floor as they turned 8 months old today. Happy Days for the twins.
