Happy Birthday - Eight months old!!!!

Blog entries are few and far between the monthly birthday updates these days. Things are just literally moving along too fast to write about :) Everybody is moving swiftly...the twins are crawling everywhere, pulling up on the furniture (YIKES!!), and attempting to get up the step out of the family room (see proof below).

Francesca continues to talk (repeat!) more and more every day. She is full of all kinds of spunk...to put it mildly. TJ is a sweet little boy. There are a lot of pictures below of him b/c he has been so lovable! (Please take a look and help me solve the debate of whether or not we should get his hair trimmed...come on, really a boy his age doesn't need a ponytail?!?) And Ella, sweet little curly haired Ella, she is a star like no other. More than anything, I can tell that she wants to be just like her big sister when she grows up - believe me, I know the feeling :) I love them all to pieces...even on the hardest days :)
Who needs a dog?!? TJ gladly cleans up his own crumbs!Some of my favorites of the month...And away they go...Memorial Day Weekend - We had a ton of fun in the new wagon. (I'm not sure why TJ got the purple cart...)After a long day outside, it was bathtime!!!Time for a haircut?!?!?

Happy Birthday - Seven months old!!!!

...and getting busier by the month! Everyone continues to do well. The twins are sitting up and starting to crawl (TJ first but Ella is starting to figure it out.). It is a whole new ball game when mobility is involved. Francesca is doing well too. She wants to go outside every moment she can and continues to love the babies the very best ways a big sister can :)

These monthly pictures get harder to take the more and more they are starting to move around...

The playground is our very favorite place...

Teething face...

It's a bird...it's a plane...it's SUPER ELLA!!!

T.J.'s very favorite place to play...

Francesca, look at the camera!!

Ella, look at the camera!!

Sweet little T.J.

The funny part of this pic isn't the shorts on her head, it's the 6-9mo size onesie of the twins that she is wearing...

Francesca loved that they had matching pajamas...
