Back

It has been a l-o-n-g while since the last post and for a good reason. The girls and I went to Iowa for a college reunion for 6 days. We had a blast! Here is picture of us in a soy bean field.
And here is a picture of the whole gang.

After all the fun times in Iowa, the girls and I flew home. They were great travelers! We were home for all of 36 hours before we were on another plane up to BC, Canada. This time my husband was with us and the girls were great travelers once again.

We attended the wedding of one of Nathan's high school classmates. We had a great time. Nathan's parents came and watched the girls while we attended all the wedding happenings. The girls had a great time with grandpa and grandma, and we had a great time as well. We then went over to the island, and spent some time with family and friends. I might post pictures from the island later.

All in all, we got back home on the 22nd and walked off the plane into the heat wave we had no idea was here. It had to be at least 115 degrees right of the plane. When we got back to our place, we were in the pool within 15 minutes.

This week has been a hodge podge of running errands, going to my parents' house (they were having granddaughter withdrawls), etc. etc. Anyway, I will try and be more regular with the posts again.

Walking

Yesterday, A2 decided she was going to walk. She has been taking 2-3 steps between things, walking along the walls, and pushing things throughout the house for about 6 weeks now. My husband and I knew she could walk, but just wasn't ready. Well, yesterday, she decided she was ready. Today, she will walk the length of the house, turn around, she will get up from a sit in the middle of the room and go.

My mother-in-law said my husband was the same way when he was little. He just started walking one day when he was ready.

Having kids is so much fun! Never a dull moment!

WooHoo!

The girls in this household are excited because my husband (aka "Daddy" to the girls) is home after volunteering in Mississippi for a week. We just got home from the airport, and the first thing he wanted to do was clean up. I think we all know how a long day of traveling makes you feel. On top of that, he came from hot, HUMID weather and had two layovers on the trip home.

Anyway, we are all glad to have him home safe!
