There is no better way to get back on track with the blog than to just jump right in!
We are having so much fun with the girls lately. It has been almost 8 months now that we have lived with Grandpa. They have had a blast with him at dinner each night and have learned some crazy things. In two weeks we will be moving into our new home. We are packing and getting excited, but we will definitely miss the big guy who makes us giggle every day.
Natalie has been walking since about her 1st birthday. She is ALL OVER THE PLACE and so interested in everything. She is up the stairs, in the bathroom, trying to walk out the back door, etc. She doesn't want to be held. She wants to RUN! She says so many words and has the biggest smile, full of teeth. The words I can remember off the top of my head are: mama, dada, ball, Gen (Gwen), baby, boon (balloon), Mou (Micky Mouse), dog, rawr, wuhwuh (lovey), water, this, no, on, off, car, down, teese (please), cheers, and more.
Gwen just started T-ball and soccer. She loves running the bases and, of course, talks non stop to the coaches. She will be going to Sci Tech for preschool in the fall and I am so excited! Her drawings have come a long way recently and she is drawing more details on people and more animals, houses, etc.
She has decided to have a Fairy birthday party since she is into Tinkerbell. We are excited about having her party at the new house.
Today was Father's Day. We went to Mike's for a cookout and had ice cream with daddy as a special treat. Gwen was helping Billy vacuum the floor and would run to dirt on the floor and yell, "crumb alert." Quite funny. She also is obsessed with watching the Hawks with us as they are in the Stanley Cup final. She loves to sing the National Anthem and emphasize the words "that our flag was still there," complete with arm raised.
We are enjoying these little ladies so much. I can't wait to see them in their new rooms and home. =)
