on the go

This clip is boring in the beginning but eventually gets to Margot walking. She's getting more into the idea of it everyday, but she still prefers to be carried or just on a lap, quite the little snuggle-bug! She's also in love with phones right now and thinks my little video camera is a cell phone, thus she starts talking on the phone at the very end of the clip.

ps. Happy Birthday GraMoM!! Can't wait to see you soon.

Big Girls

eloise is so excited and proud of her 'big girl' bed.

(and for getting her jessie doll back-it's a reward for potty training...I'll spare you the details)

and yes, we have another new cast. light blue this time.

and for the other big accomplishment....

Margot is walking. I am trying to capture it on video, but have not had success yet.

Stay tuned.

Springtime....yippee!!!

Eloise's cast hasn't slowed her down a bit! Which, as long as it's healing, is a good thing. We had our first picnic dinner at the park with friends and are so excited about spring. We still don't know how long the cast has to stay on, we go to see another Orthopedic doctor tomorrow morning.

this is Eloise's little buddy, Isaac

fighting over who's turn it is...

It's so gross, but I love the sweaty, grimy, dirt under the nails and in every fold.....we've had fun and played hard days!

It's broken!

We spent much of the evening and into the morning in the emergency room last night with Eloise. She fell onto her crib mattress wrong last night while getting into bed and broke her elbow.

POOR BABY!

She was very brave and seems to be just fine this morning and ready to show off her dinosaur sling. We have to go see and Orthopedic doc this week for the plan.

(note the gigantic sucker = mom's guilt, since i was the one putting her to bed)
