Anna's New Chic Haircut

Anna's been asking for a while now to cut her hair and we've been waiting until it was long enough to donate. So, a couple of days ago the twins and Madeline were all down for a nap (not very usual) and so we decided to go for it. It is an A-line cut, so it's shorter in the back. She loves it and can't wait to look in the mirror any chance she gets. She looks so old now!

Our New Backyard

We should've taken pics before we redid our backyard. It looked like a jungle of weeds. We are loving it! The girls spend lots of time on the trampoline and we roasted marshmellows for smores for the first time tonight. We hope to have lots of fun summer nights!

Happy Birthday, Ella & Eva!

I can't believe my babies are already a year old! The year went by slow in the beginning, but the rest has definitely flown by. They are so much fun! Eva took 8 steps about two weeks ago and Ella still likes to walk with your assistance. They are saying "Mama" and "Dada" all the time and love peek-a-boo. They love it when you pretend that you are looking for them and then smile hugely when you say, "There you are!" They LOVE to eat! For breakfast they'll each have one and a half good-sized pancakes, plus some fruit! We can't feed them fast enough. We don't know where they put it!

This last Easter Sunday we went to Grandma & Grandpa Grow's house to celebrate their birthday. Here's a little video clip. After they started eating their cupcake, Grandma Grow gave them some ice cream. Their reactions were exactly the same. Too bad we only caught Eva on Video. So, if you see Eva, then you've seen Ella! :) We wish you were all there to celebrate with us! It won't be too long until they become big sisters . . . One more girl to add to the bunch!
