Since I'm a terrible blogger, here are some cute pics from the last month or so. Avery and Kara are talking up a storm now. Kara usually sticks to one or two word phrases, but Avery is saying several word sentences. They understand almost everything I say to them and follow directions well...when they're in a cooperative mood!

We're TWO!!!
Finally...I'm getting around to posting a few birthday pics. We had Avery and Kara's party at our house the weekend before their birthday. All the family came, and the girls had lots of fun eating cupcakes & ice cream and opening tons of presents. It was Winnie the Pooh themed, so I got them bear ears to wear:

Fun at the Zoo
We took Avery and Kara to the zoo for the first time last month. Gigi and Grandad came with us and were a big help corralling the girls. They had so much fun running all around and looking at the animals. On our way home, they fell asleep about the second we put them in the car...totally worn out from all the fun!

Trick or Treat
Halloween was a lot of fun! The girls got to go trick or treating for the first time. We only went to a few houses, but they were thrilled with the candy. The hard part was waiting until we got home to eat it! Then we let them stay up a little later than usual to watch us pass out candy to other kids. So Avery and Kara sampled a milky way and twix, and it must be true that candy makes kids hyper, because they stayed up laughing and jabbering in their room for well over an hour after we put them to bed. I guess they had a good time. :)

The weekend before Halloween, we took the girls to our church's Fall Festival. They were very excited to wear their princess dresses. We had a good time exploring all the fun activities...games, petting zoo, fire truck & police car. They're favorite activity was playing with balloons of course. That never gets old! And sweetly harassing all the poor animals in the petting zoo.

Fun around the house
Avery said her first sentence a couple weeks ago. The girls were pulling a bunch of stuff out of a cabinet, and I came up and asked what they were doing. Avery stands up and declares "What a mess!" like she didn't have anything to do with it.
