11 Months Old

11 Months Old - Wow! It's hard to believe that in one more month, Audrey will turn one. Her first two teeth came in last Saturday on Daddy's birthday. She's been drooling lots, cranky, not sleeping very well at night, and not eating very well. Teething is not fun for our girls. It was tough on Anna as a baby as well. We are staying with my parents while we wait to close on our new house in WV and Audrey has been a girl on a mission mastering climbing the stairs, moving the baby-proof gates, running off with Grandma's dish towels, etc. There's no time for relaxing when she's awake! :0)

One Tuff Babe

Anna picked out this stylin' purse on the clearance rack for a whopping $4.50 and I didn't realize until we were checking out that it says "one tuff babe" on the patch in the middle of it. Too funny! She then told my mom that it said, "one buff babe". What a purse!

Happy Birthday Great Grandma!

We celebrated my Grandma's birthday over lunch which was such a treat as we typically don't get to be a part of family gatherings besides the holidays. Audrey waved at the camera and then continued to wave at every person she saw. What a goof! :)

Bubble Time

Our last night in our house was filled with bubbles. Most of the toys were packed so we gave the girls a long bubble bath to help entertain them. They both like to lay down in the water...such fish!

Hello?

This isn't the greatest picture but it shows Audrey doing one of her latest tricks...using whatever is in her hand as a phone. In this picture it's the remote control but she will put whatever she's holding up to her ear and say "hello" in her own little way that sounds similar to "ha la".

Anna's First Haircut

Anna got her first "real" haircut before we moved and she did great. She was a bit apprehensive at first so mommy got her hair cut first. Laurie trimmed her ends and then styled her hair for her. It was fun to go together!

Fun with Friends

We had a great weekend with our friends Quentin & Paula and their kiddos Elli, Jess, and Owen. We are so thankful we were able to spend time with them before moving to WV. We went to the Indianapolis Children's Museum and saw lots of really neat things. There were a lot of hands on activities and you could spend numerous days working your way through each level of the museum (4 total). Below are some pics from our adventure. Thank you Wagners for coming to visit! 3 Little Monkeys stocking up energy for the museum Amazing glass sculpture Anna, Elli, and Jess loving the Indy car Audrey and Owen - "Who's that baby looking in the mirror?" The carousel was the highlight of Anna's day. Anna in action Slaying the dragon...she did this twice before heading back to the finish line. Guess she wanted to make sure she really took him out! :) The dinosaur exhibit was awesome! You could spend hours in this one section. Audrey and Owen - born just 2 days apart
