The Birthday Party!

At last, some photos of the big event!

Piper & Knox are 1!

Here are some pictures from the big day. We waited to have their party on Saturday and there are a lot of great pictures from that day, but unfortunately none of them are on my camera! I'll post some photos when I can get them from our guests! We did get a video of the cake eating - and it was definitely a hit with both Piper and Knox, but especially Knox! We'll post that on YouTube because it'll never upload to the blog. I'll send out a link when it's up.

We need to get a video of Knox walking, too. He's getting a little more steady on his feet and sometimes he's able to take 4, 5 or even 6 steps before he falls down. But he never does it on command so I haven't been able to capture it on video. Piper is still cruising around on the furniture (or around other people), but she's not taking steps on her own yet. She did try to take a couple of steps toward me today but she quickly landing on her bottom. I know it's only a matter of time now until both of them are running (and most likely in opposite directions).

Happy 4th of July!

Holiday greetings from our little patriots!

Story time

Everyone keeps asking if Piper and Knox are walking yet. They're not quite there yet, but Knox will take a step or two if you hold onto his hands and both are "cruising" around the furniture. Here is a quick video from tonight's storytime. I think Piper will be the reader...

Eleven Months!

This is what happens when we try to get the monthly photos now!

Ten Months!

Piper and Knox turned 10 months old on Saturday! It's hard to believe that in just two months, we will start measuring their age in years :) We are working on lots of new things in preparation for their first birthday. In addition to standing and cruising around the furniture, we're working on a few basic signs for milk, eat and more and we're working to learn to drink from a cup and use a spoon. Hopefully we'll be able to master the cup and spoon by July so we can get rid of the bottles once and for all and start eating "big people" food for every meal.

Look at us!

Ok, posts are getting few and far between because mommy and daddy are swamped, but here are some recent pictures. Piper and Knox and getting big and with the way they're pulling up to stand in their gated area, walking can't be far away!
