It's the fifth of the month, which means my current baby turns 18 months today! A whole year and a half. This age is so challenging and fun all at the same time. Her language skills are picking up each day. She tries her best to repeat all of the words we ask, sometimes not sounding anything like it and other times surprising us. My favorite is her "thank you" which sounds like "nank nu." She absolutely loves to be outside. Climbing. Swinging. Playing with bugs. In water. She is especially enjoying living at her Gramps--right behind the house are donkeys, horses, chickens, goats, and sheep. Not a day goes by when we don't visit the animals.
It took about 10 shots to get one good one. She was not wanting to stand still and smile.
But we managed with a little bribery. Naomi is wearing a hand-me-down dress from Audrey, which I scored at a second-hand kids store.
Audrey is wearing a vintage dress and shirt that was either mine or one of her three aunts.
A perfect twirl dress, in deed.
They really love to hug and kiss each other. They have also started "rough housing" together, resulting in one or the other sitting on top of the other. Lincoln better watch out!
On a different fun note, I was featured on the lovely, Aliya's blog, Double the Fun today! I answer some questions about pregnancy, stop on over and say hello! And those who have stopped in from over there, "nice to meet you!"

Ugh, a year and a half! Where does the time go!?! Olivia only wears dresses that twirl. Now Emily is twirling too. :)
I'm glad everything is great with Lincoln. You're almost in the home stretch.
I am so glad everything is okay with Lincoln.
Your girls are so very sweet. And oh, the roughhousing stage. I'm not sure if I'll survive it.
Oh... You write such cute and lovely posts. I really enjoy reading them. ^_^ and what a quilt the girls were on. Did you make that?
Oh, your girls are just so beautiful! I love hearing about what's going on in their (and your!) lives.
Your girls a re just so precious. Their brother might beat them in weight, but certainly not in cuteness. Impossible. ;)
What a great post! I can't believe how much of a little girl Naomi looks in these photos. And, those dresses. Just lovely!
Have a great weekend!
