I've been trying to post a new blog for a few days now, but things have been a little busy. Hey I have twin daughters, what do you expect?

So what's new... lets see. Chloe is very close to taking a few steps on her own. If she hasn't already... I think Grandma and Grandpa might be concealing certain "firsts" so that mommy doesn't feel bad. And hey, I'm all for that.

Claire has turned into little miss "ham it up". If she makes a face or does something that makes us laugh, she will continue doing it.. over and over. First she would scrunch her nose, then she would breath in and out really fast, then she started tilting her head back and doing the nose scrunch thing and now she has learned to wink. Well it is more of a double eye blink than a single eye wink, but it is still pretty much the cutest thing you have ever seen.

The weather was nice today and so we headed up to the lake for a bar-b-que with family and friends. We thought we would try and grab some nice "ten month" photos of the girls while we were up there, but Chloe wasn't diggin' it.

This was the first time she has really ever been put down on the ground with leaves and grass and stuff. I don't think she knew what to think. One thing was sure sure, she wasn't in the smiling mood. Though Claire was hamming it up as has become the norm lately.

The weather was crazy warm today so we decided to take a walk over to the park. We loaded up the girls in their stroller, put a leash on Sammie dog and headed out. We picked up some Port of Subs sandwiches on the way and had a nice picnic style lunch. Afterwards Claire and Chloe got their first hands on experience with playground equipment.
