Long Overdue

Sorry it has been so long since I last posted pictures and updated you on things that were happening around here. Part of it is not my fault though. Our computer has been getting worked on for the past week, and we finally got it back yesterday. Two weeks ago my sister Danielle came and visited us and stayed with us for a week. She returned home from her semester in Italy and we were very anxious to see her. She was also anxious to see Chloe as she was gone when Chloe was born. It was so much fun having her around! We had definitely missed her these past few months! It was so nice outside the one day that she was here. We went to the park, went for a walk, and then had a picnic lunch. We also went shopping - my first "real" (not grocery store or Walmart) shopping trip since Chloe was born. I was able to get some much needed clothing for the girls and just enjoy being out. Aubrey had a blast as she loves shopping, and Chloe was very good also.

Chloe rolled over for the first time last week. She was laying on a towel in the bathroom while I was filling her little tub. When I turned around to put the tub down, she was laying on her stomach on the hard tile floor! I think that she had a little leverage being slightly higher than the floor on her towel, because she has not rolled over since. She is doing so much better about her fussiness. She has turned into quite the happy baby - as long as she is not tired or hungry! She is also finally sleeping longer periods in her bed during the day. Today she slept for almost three hours in her bed! What an improvement!

Aubrey continues to make life interesting. She is very creative and loves to play with her babies. She could play with them all day long. She also loves to read books and loves the fact that we have been getting new books from the library for her to read. She is getting a new tooth in, but it doesn't seem to be bothering her any. On a sad note (for me anyways), I've decided to quit potty training for a while. Aubrey was having at least one accident a day and it was a struggle to get her to go potty, so I decided to take a break from it for a while. Hopefully when we try again it will go a little smoother.

Enjoy the pictures and the changes in the girls!

Doesn't she look so sweet and innocent - like a little angel?

Chloe looks so cute in this outfit with the hood up!
