June 2009

Our girls are really enjoying the summer so far. We have made it to the pool a lot. Vivian continues to get more brave with each visit. She is really close to swimming without assistance. We hope she can figure it out by the end of the summer. Vivian and Eleanor will both hang out in the pool until they are so exhausted they are about to fall asleep. Eleanor is a real trooper and takes naps in the shade while we keep on playing in the pool. Unfortunately, I have been not so good at getting pool pictures because my hands are always full. I will try to get more soon.

So far Vivian and Eleanor are really getting along well. They love each other and just laugh at each other most of the time. They are probably making fun of their mom. Who knows!

Eleanor is growing up so fast. She pulled up for the first time this weekend. Her motivation was a laundry basket. Of all the fun toys we have, she really wanted that laundry basket. Eleanor has one tooth finally! She is still army crawling, but I am not sure if she will ever do the tradtional crawl. I think she has realized she gets around just fine the way she is doing it. Eleanor has also learned how to hold her bottle by herself which has been very helpful for me!
