Happy Valentines Day

This week we started making party hats for Maise's birthday party. They are so adorable! We have one more to make, it is for the birthday girl herself, it is also the hardest one to make, wish us luck! Vanessa's outfit for her 6 month pictures came in and we just could not wait to take pictures. So we decided to do their 6 month and 2 year shoot a few weeks early on Valentines Day. The pictures are wonderful and the girls did great. We will have them in time to pass out at her party. It really was a fun day we all had a great time! I liked doing picutures for Valentines, maybe it will be a new tradition. Now I have to go change my screen saver as it is from last years Valentines pictures of Maise in a much much smaller tutu.  









Maise is getting more comfortable everyday with her speech. Using words properly that we have not directly taught her. She said "sorry daddy" when she was under foot and she told me to "go away, leave mommy" when she wanted solo daddy time. She is about 80 percent complete on her ABC's, ending them always in a dramatically long end note. I will be sure to post a video when we have the song down. This week we also noticed her singing along to mom and dads music. She really chimes in on the song "Hang Me Out to Dry", so let's get to Maise's video of the week:

Vanessa is fighting tummy time and it is so hard to make her but we are getting in 5 - 10 minutes a day. She is just a natural snuggler and wants to be held. Ah to live a day in the life of Vanessa! She is getting stronger and stronger sitting up in her boppy or propped on the floor playing with her sister. I think it will only be a few weeks before we have an independent sitter.  Have a great week!
