Drought

It has been SOOO long since I've been able to write and I really mjiss it. I truly enjoy writing about what's going on in our lives and posting new pictures of the kids. It feels like a drought to me!

So I'm back, let's see what's new. I just discovered a new tooth in Shelly's mouth, she now has four on the top, along with the first two on the bottom, and I think its right around this time that we stopped counting for Archer - when they've got this many its really dangerous to stick your finters in there to feel how many they have. And they're too opinionated to let you just look inside their mouth anymore.

I swear, she's "this close" (imagine me holding my thumb and finger a half inch apart) to walking, its going to happen ANY MINUTE now. She not only stands up without holding onto anything, she also bends and straightens her knees, like she's dancing.

And, believe it or not, she is TALKING! She says Dada, and she says it when she sees her dad, its amazing. She also knows sign language. When she wants a bottle she shakes her hand up and down, the same way we do when we're making a bottle for her and shake it to mix up the formula.

Archer and Shelly spent the night with Mom & Dad last night and even after only 24 hours away from him, Archer seemed to sound so much older. Time just slips right on by. I must say that a lot on this blog, but I'm constantly reminded by my kids not to let a minute pass without paying attention, because I'll miss so much.
