Sitting!

Well...I think we can finally say that both babies are now officially sitting. They spent a while sitting together and playing this afternoon. So cute!


In other milestones, Maggie became mobile last week while we were in Massachusetts. She can now roll across a room in less than 30 seconds! At this rate, I'm not sure she'll ever choose to crawl, because she's a master roller. Ben has started to swivel on his tummy and can do a 360, but for the time being we can still find him wherever we left him.

Good-bye spiky poof. You will be missed!

The Flower Girls!

Gabby and Ellie were fantastic flower girls last weekend for Auntie Marta and Uncle Devin's wedding. The wedding was right during Ellie's nap-time, but she stepped up to the challenge, and both girls were stupendous. They walked right down the aisle as they were supposed to (barely bothered by the fact that the ring bearer ahead of them gave up only 4 pews down).

They stayed nice and quiet during the ceremony and were extremely patient for the 90 minutes afterward that we stayed in the church for formal pictures.

Enjoy the pics!

Playing in the Snow

We're up in Massachusetts for Marta's Wedding. Thought we'd post some photos of the big girls in the snow!

Just a picture

Just a cute picture of the babies from a couple weeks ago. Enjoy!

It was a good day

Today was a good day. We both showered, in the morning. We all ate breakfast, together, at the table. We hustled and got out the door in time for portraits, with Chris too. See photos below. We all napped. Awesome. Later, while I had the girls with me at Gabby's last soccer game of the season, Basia was doing an HEB run, and the babies cooperarted with her. Then tonight, we had a frined come by and help us put the kids to bed. And we went out on a date/shopping trip.

It was a good day. I like good days.

Pictures from portraits, and soccer.

Enjoy!
