Well, we have survived another month!

The girls are growing like crazy and doing new things all the time. Their motor skills are improving every day which is so cool to see. They use both hands to grab onto things and it usually goes straight to their mouth when they do get ahold of something. Bella's favorite toy right now is a red, white and blue horse with stars all over it. She likes to eat his nose! (The one Emma is holding in the picture) And Emma has recently attached herself to a duck with colored wires going all different directions so she can hold onto it easily and still have her choice of what to chew on.

They had their first daycare/nursery experience. We went to church this past Sunday and actually worked up the nerve to leave them in the nursery. They did very well (we were told! :)) and by the time we got back from the service one of the volunteers was rocking both of them and they were sound asleep!

They also started sitting in their highchairs this week- they are still a little too small so we have to stuff blankets around them but Bella likes being up high where she can oversee Emma & I to make sure we are doing everything she wants us to do! And while Bella found her toes last week, Emma found hers on Monday so now they have new built-in toys to play with. Which works out well for me since they like to throw their toys down so I will pick them up.

And unfortunately Emma is sick... so I'm sure Bella is not too far behind. The nurse said it sounds viral so hopefully it will be over soon. Emma's good nature is helping her take it like a champ though. Maybe Bella will be just as good when its her turn!
