Bath buddies

 

Our two littles are turning into good little pals. Will now requests Kate to accompany him during every bathtime and Kate wiggles and squeals when she hears the tub water run. We are working on sharing and some days are better than others. Kates giggles when Will plays peek-a-boo, tickles her, or plays games with her. Will now tells Kate how much he loves her, hugs her, kisses her, and hauls her around. She is a trooper and is one tough girl. My days with these two are special, challenging, rewarding, exhausting, and inspiring. I love to see them enjoy each other and interact together. I hope someday they will see each other as the greatest gift I ever gave them.

First snow!!

 

The first snow of 2012-2013 dumped 12 inches in the valley and 40 inches in the mountains!! Bring on winter....we want to ski!!!

Kate and her new dress

Look at this little cutie at 10 months old. She is such a doll and is so happy. I am having soooo much fun dressing my little baby doll up!

Kate is so happy and now has 2 teeth on the bottom and 4 up top. 

She LOVES crawling up and down the stairs and can go really fast!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween was great this year for our little giraffe, skeleton, and our hot dog Ellie. Will loves "scary things" and has spent hours in his costume over the last several months. His skeleton costume glows in the dark and he has slept in his costume most nights.

Kate had a great time and was a little trooper!

Will desperately wanted to dress Ellie up and so we went to Petco to find her hot dog costume. The relish, mustard, and ketchup glowed in the dark. Will had an absolute ball and she put up with wearing her costume most days this last month as well. 

Trick-or-treating at Aunt Carlee's and Uncle Ty's house.

Ellie and Will are quite the pair together. Ellie stuck close to him all Halloween night and seemed to enjoy little treats dropped along the way.

Playing in the leaves

Raking leaves on a fall day turned into hours of fun for these two! Will makes Kate laugh all of the time and she wants to follow him around constantly.

She is on the MOVE

At 9.5 months Kate started crawling and within a few days she started pulling up to standing. Will is a bit more interested in his sister now that she is on the go. 

So adorable!

Pals playing together.

Kate loves to crawl up the stairs, rock on her little elephant, wave good-bye, and play SO BIG!
