Catch Up

I decided to take a break from posting for a few weeks and spend the much needed quality time with my girls.  There isn't much to say about the past two weeks so I will sum it up in a few words............................... absolute bliss. 

I never thought that I would be at a point in my life where I was so happy.  Don't get me wrong, the day I met and then married Justin was the happiest day of my life, but having children is a whole new level of happiness.  WOW, I can't believe they will be 6 months old this week.  Last night I was playing with the girls on our home made pallet in the living room while Justin laid on the couch watching us.  The girls were not in the best mood due to not napping very well that day.  Even though they were exhausted they were so much fun.  Believe it or not, I didn't want to put them to bed.  I was having fun.  Here are a few new updates with the girls:

Allie.......

• Loves her feet.  She can put both in her mouth at the same time.
• Loves to laugh and smile
• Can't get enough of her excersaucer
• Is mesmerized by Ava
• Has found her tongue
• Rolls over in the middle of the night and will talk/scream to be turned over.  She can do it by herself, she just chooses not to.
• Gives me a bath while she takes a bath.  She loves to splash water.

Olivia.......

• Loves to be held up and turned over.
• Talks while eating
• Blows bubbles while eating (this is very frustrating)
• Is obsessed with any animal
• Loves to stand and take steps.  She's getting pretty good (oh Lord!)
• Is doing a funny inch worm crawl

Below is the past two weeks.  Enjoy!!
