Anyway, I just thought I'd give an update on the girls. Maddie is walking! It is so cute. She is actually amazingly steady for just learning. This last week she just sort of figured it out and now she walks everywhere. It is so cute to see such a little person cruising around on her feet. I love it. Bella hasn't quite figured it out, but I've noticed her watching Maddie walk around a lot so I'm sure she'll decide that she wants to do that too. Maddie also likes to say "Peek boo" but for some reason she covers her ears instead of her eyes. She also says "bear" all the time because she loves her little bear security blanket. She has such a fun, lively personality and is always on the go.

Bella is so smart! She can say three different animal sounds now. She says Moo, quack quack, and growls like a tiger. It is so cute. We don't even have to do the sound first, we just say, "What does the tiger say?" and she does it. It is darling. She loves anything that has buttons on it (the remote, the cd player, the telephone) and turns on and off the TV all day long. She is a very observant little girl! She loves to play in the water and has no fear. She is also so happy and constantly on the go with her sister.

They both have four teeth, two on the top and two on the bottom. They love to play with their dad and every day when they hear the garage door open for him to come home they say, "Da Da!!" and they start to squeal and get excited. They love to dance to their favorite children's songs DVD from Aunt Lacey. They have learned how to blow kisses and give good kisses too! When they are in their high chairs they love to pass food to each other. They'll trade a little cookie back and forth and they think it is the funniest thing. They still take two great naps everyday! Yay! It is amazing how fast they are growing and learning. We can't believe they are 13 months old! We love these little sweeties!
