New Pictures

I haven't posted for awhile, so here are some new pictures of the girls. They are both doing really well. Josie has really started using her imagination when she is playing and is always singing. Elyse is always moving - she is a busy little girl! She has her two bottom teeth already, which is weird because Josie didn't get her first teeth until 10 months. Elyse had her 6 month appt, and is, not surprisingly, tall! She was 18 lbs. 3 oz and 27.5" long. 80% for weight and 95% for height.

Road Trip

Well, it's been awhile since my last post! I keep meaning to come on here, but I'm always finding something else to do! Shocking, right?! I do have somewhat of an excuse because we were gone for 9 days! We took a road trip to Minnesota to see Mike's family. The girls did great on the way down, and sort of okay on the way back. It's never as much fun going home as it is to go on vacation!

We had such a great time with everyone and made lots of wonderful memories. Some of our activities - Logan's 1st birthday party (our nephew), Mall of America, Twin's game, Como Zoo, swimming, and lots of playing outside.

On the way home, we decided to break up the trip and stayed at a waterpark hotel in Wisconsin Dells. It was a mini-vacation for our family, and we loved it, even if it was only for one night. :)

Can't wait to get together with everyone again for Christmas!!

These are some of my favorite pics from the trip...I LOVED watching these two play together. The two year olds - Josie and Christian....

Could she be any sweeter?

Okay, so maybe I'm a little biased, but I sure think she's sweet! I have been having so much fun with our sweet little Elyse. She is such a happy baby, and I just LOVE her smiles and laughs. It makes me melt. She has been so cute lately with sticking out her tongue all the time. She cracks me up! I don't have any pictures of her sticking out her tongue yet, but I'm sure I'll get some soon. She is constantly doing it, and it seems like she thinks she is being funny! Josie is such a good little helper with her. She will bring her toys and give her her pacifier if she is upset. Such a little mommy.

Here are some pics of our smiley baby...

I loved how she was cuddling her bear!

Rolling Over

Elyse is now rolling over and over and over! She can not stop trying out her new talent! The second you lay her on her back, she is on her stomach! She has started sleeping this way as well.

Here she is right after her very first time rolling over...

What just happened?!

Josie wanted to sit up on the counter with Elyse

Here's Josie eating an apple from our neighbor's apple tree. She was so excited she was even eating the core! And, no, she was not swimming, she is really sweaty from the heat and all her curly hair! :)

Fever

Josie and Elyse both got shots yesterday. Somehow Elyse did just fine with no fever, but Josie was absolutely miserable. She was limping around and whining like crazy. Have to admit, the limping was pretty funny, but once we realized how bad she felt, you couldn't help but feel sorry for her. So, I sat her down on the couch and let her watch some cartoons while I got dinner ready...

Thankfully, this is her today! She is feeling much better, and enjoyed opening some presents from my friend, Marci, this morning.




And, here is Elyse today, smiling and happy like usual! :)

Josie's Party!
