End of summer already?!?!

Hi everyone!! We can't believe it's almost September!
I started preschool again, and Daddy had his first week of class too! We've still been enjoying the warm weather, and hope it stays a lot longer!!
My sister is a crazy little monkey now, climbing on everything and running everywhere! We make each other laugh all the time! Here's a few pictures of us from the last few weeks so you can see what we've been up to!

Hi everyone!! We've been so busy the last few months! Elliot turned 1in April!! She's running all over, and talking to me all the time ;) I'm still going to preschool a few days a week, and loving it! We love to play outside, and go to the lake now!! Here's a bunch of pictures to catch us up!!

Elliot's 11 months!

Elliot is 11 months! We can not believe she'll be 1 so soon! She's VERY busy now, walking everywhere and into everything! She likes to 'talk' to me too :) Here are a couple pictures Mommy took of the latest milestone!

Sweet Elle

What the majority of pictures of Elliot look like now! Too busy moving!

The big 3, preschool, and walking Elliot!!

Hi everybody!! There has been so much going on here! First of all...I'm 3!!!! I am so excited, and I had such a fun time celebrating! I had the best party, and got so many FUN gifts! I've been very busy playing with all of them. I especially love to play 'store' right now, and with all of my princesses too!

Just a couple days after my birthday, I also started going to school!! I've been having fun meeting new friends, and learning new things!!

And while I've been doing all of this, Elle has learned to walk!!! On the day she turned 10 months, she took her first steps, and now she is a walker!! She can stand herself up, and she's off!! She likes to explore everything too, so we have to pay attention all the time!!!

Here's some new pictures of all the action!!

Party girl Elle :)

Putting grapes in my cheeks is SO funny :)

New Year, 9 months, wow!!

Happy 2012!! We hope everyone had as much craziness and fun over the Holidays as we did!!

We're all great! Elliot is 9 months old, and VERY busy now! She's crawling everywhere, pulling herself up on everything, and getting new teeth too! She cut through her 1st top tooth, so that's 3 total!

I've been having so much fun too! I'm having the best time seeing and playing with all of my cousins most of all! I like to call myself a princess these days, and wearing a skirt or a dress that spins is very important ;) Enjoy the latest pics and video!

Santa was good to us!

And we got a new chair from great granny Ellen!
