Visit to Hartman Reserve

We had a picnic and a walk at Hartman Reserve today. I successfully used the timer on my camera and caught a pretty cute family pic.

It's Been a While!

Greetings, family and friends! It's been a while since I have made a post here. It seems with all the other means of communication, I have forgotten about this one! :)

The girls are doing great. Molly continues to amazes us each day with her constant chatter. A day doesn't go by where I do not wonder where she heard/learned that? She is growing like crazy! Just this week Ryan said he knew she is growing because she can turn the lights on and off by herself with a stool. Whoa! Molly loves to be outside - riding her bike and scooter and running around the neighbor kids.

Lexie is almost one. I cannot believe this. She is a big girl - almost 24 pounds, but is very tall, too. She is quite a bit more sassy and temperamental than Molly was at this age. She keeps me on my toes! Lex loves her big sister and her toys. She is a great eater and has become a much better sleeper (thank goodness!).

The girls started a new daycare this year. Molly's teacher from last year opened her own in-home daycare, so this is where the girls go. It is working out great! Both girls (usually) take great naps, so our late afternoons/evenings are not as challenging at home.

We are loving this beautiful fall weather and are looking forward to a visit to the Pumpkin Patch really soon.


Here is Lexie's 9 month picture, Molly's 3 year, and a cute one of the girls playing together. Enjoy!
