We have been busy around here! Over Labor Day weekend, we packed up our stuff and flew out to Portland, OR for a little mini-vacation, see some family and to see our good friend get married. Unfortunately, two niblets in tow prevented extended visits to the regions wineries...but that just gives us reason to return!
Helen's been getting teeth at a rapid clip--we're cutting #6 right now. She is getting so big, so fast. Hard to believe! Her newest trick is to wave bye-bye with her fat little fingers. She is loving being able to eat cheerios, and getting better about getting them in her mouth rather than the snack trap of the high chair. Perhaps the biggest news is that Helen is up and standing, cruising along furniture...walking is not far off.
Lilly is thriving in her new classroom at school. She comes home each day brimming with excitement about what she learned and did that day. Right now we're working on cutting with scissors and writing letters. She is also being nice to her sister...most of the time. We are on the receiving end of non-stop inquiry (begging) regarding ballet lessons. Our train and truck-loving kiddo has been sporting her tutu just about every chance she gets.
Our other girls (Bruiser, Maybelle and Oprah) are doing great as well. Just this past week or so, all three of them have started to lay eggs!!! We are so excited--so far, an egg a day from each! Come on over for an omelette.
