Look Mom, one hand!

Miss Julia demonstrates her new talent.

Oh great. As soon as I stand up, all the cool things are on the floor!

The Tale of the Tape

Both girls just saw Dr. Miller for their 9 month checkup.  The results are in:

Percentile  65% 10%

Length 29.5" 27.25"

Percentile 95% 45%

Dr. Miller says that with both of them being longer than their weight would indication we'll probably be looking at some tall girls!

4 Month

5 Month

Off to the Races!

Miss Lauren takes her sisters out for a ride. She was also giving stroller rides to them in her baby doll stroller.

Game time

The girls enjoy their new music table from Kathleen and Neal.

A night on the town

Miss Lauren in her pretty dress at the new fountain at the Shops at Legacy in Plano. This is right across the street from the new Benihana where we had a great dinner to thank Nana Pat for coming out to visit.

Pimp my stroller

The girls get out about in their new stroller. The old one was getting too small, especially for Julia, as her feet stuck so far she had to be in the front. The new ride lets them sit up instead of laying back like the old one.

Product Placement!

Miss Ella says the only thing that gets her going in the morning is a Mohave Rattler Venom energy drink.

(Not recommended for children, pregnant women or people sensitive to caffeine!)

I can do it too!

Miss Ella crawled today for the first time, just 20 days after her sister Julia did it.

Her silly Russian hat is actually the smallest in a set of fabric nesting baskets!

Big Pirate Cheer!

Miss Lauren tries out the fine Pirate cheerleader outfit she was given by Uncle Tony, Aunt Jamie and her cousins Ian, Jacob, and Sarah.

Happy New Year from the Texas Islands

Big Sister the Hula Girl wants to wish everyone the best in 2009 as well!

Welcome to the New Year, pardner!

These fine little fillies wish you and yours a big 'ole 2009!
