Okay, I am becoming a horrible blogger. As Lisa pointed out, it has been forever since my last post! So, in the interim, the girls have turned ONE! (I can't believe I have toddlers!). They started crawling a couple of days before their early intervention appointment (they were approved for services for gross motor), so she will be back in July when the girls are 15months old. They are cruising, pulling up, riding their little cars and horses all around the house and just generally creating mayhem! They are so freakin cute. They each have 4 teeth now (O cut her 4th one today). They had a great birthday. You can see their pictures on Megans blog at
www.perspectives-photography.com/blog and search under April 2009. We had a blast and the girls got tons of stuff. We will be moving to "Big Girl" carseats soon. And we will be taking away the paci's after we get back from our trip. Which brings me to the next thing... The girls and I are flying to Michigan on Tuesday! Lea had a little baby boy (well, not so little 9lb15oz!) on May 15th. So the girls are going to get to meet their newest cousin! We will be gone for a week and I unintentionally planned the trip for over fathers day weekend. And you would think that not getting up early and being able to do whatever you want on Fathers Day would be a great gift, but Steve will be doing a side job, so it isn't all fun and games! But we will get to celebrate the following weekend. They are both saying "down (sounds like don), mama, da da, dog (daw), bubbles (buba). O seems to say things more consistently than her sister. They both sign "more", but O seems to think it just means "I want". She does the sign for more then just points at what she wants. They love looking out the big window in the living room to look for birds, and say "bir... bir?". So that is all for now. Wish me luck on the big trip. I'll try to be better about keeping up with this blog!
So all in all a great trip! Can't wait to go back!
