We're getting a house!

After spending many hours searching for homes online and driving through many neighborhoods, we have found the perfect house for our family. We are so happy to have found a great place with a wonderful yard for the girls to play in and for the dogs to run in...they won't know what to do without their leashes! The builder accepted our offer this week and if all goes well we should close by the end of July. Since the house is brand new, we will have alot of painting and yard work to do but we know it will be worth it! We took the pictures below this week.

We're walking together!

This has been a good week for us! Alaina started walking on Tuesday and now we can't slow her down. She is realizing that walking in beneficial since she can carry things around now. Abbie has continued to walk but doesn't feel the need to show it off too often! Now we just need to find some shoes that fit and they'll be set. Enjoy this new clip!

I got skills too!

I've been watching my sissy get all the attention from standing and walking so I've decided it's my turn! Today we went to the waterpark and I honed my skills in the kiddie pool. When I got on dry land I stood up and even teased Mommy and Daddy with a couple of steps. I decided to show off again when I got home so everyone could see me! Enjoy!

Watch me walk!

Remember last week when I told you I would be walking soon? Well I've been practicing everyday and I'm ready to show off my skills! I take a few more steps everyday and am starting to see that this could really benefit me. Enjoy the show!

I'm a Big Girl!


Hey everybody! Today I decided that it isn't as scary as I thought to stand by myself. Tonight I pulled myself up on Mommy's shoulder and let go! I raised my hands in the air and then clapped for the good job I did. Just wait, I'll be walking on my own soon!
Love,
Abbie

We went swimming!


Since the temperature was about 90 degrees in Raleigh today, we decided we'd try the pool again. The water was much warmer this week and we enjoyed floating around in our rafts and playing with Mommy. We watched the big kids swimming and diving for toys and we can't wait to be big and do that some day! We can't wait to go back to the pool!
