So Much to Do

Ok. So there has been so much going on lately that I just haven't had a chance to update you all. But, I will do my best to update you and give you some lovely pictures.
First off - we went to the park for the first time the other day. Boy do my girls love to be in the great outdoors! You can see the slide show to the right to get our outdoor adventure.
But that wasn't all. We also had a great time this past weekend in Huntsville. I took the girls up to the State Park for their first campout. They loved it and apparently, Ansley is more like me than I thought - she LOVES fire!!! But who wouldn't? You can find those pics on the right too.
Last - I took some pics over the past few weeks and thought that they were priceless. So, that will be the 3rd slideshow.
Sorry there are so many slideshows, but that is the only way I can show you all how much fun we had.

As for an update on the girls. They are getting too big!!! That is all I can say. Elizabeth went to the DR today and is 2 ounces shy of 17 lbs. You may be able to tell in the pictures that she is "plenty plump!" We love having 2 rolly-poly babies. The campout was super fun. We went with about 50 of our friends to the campsite and had so much fun. The girls loved the outdoors and loved sleeping in the tent. They also loved all of the attention that they got from all of our friends. I was worried that when they got back home they would not like touching the ground again. I was right. Too many friends, too many people to hold the girls. Of course, that didn't stop Ansley from eating a couple of handfulls of dirt and leaves. Another set of pictures that are worth mentioning are their bath. The girls got a little dirty from eating while outdoors (apparently they watched everyone else eating s'mores and making a mess). Well, they didn't want to be left out, so they made a mess of themselves. So, we took them down to the water spicket and hosed them off there. Cold water - big shock!!! Other than that, all I learned was that they loved the outdoors so much that we are gonna have to plan some more campouts. Also, we may need a space heater b/c Elizabeth has a hard time keeping warm at night. But, she does love to cuddle with mom in the morning on the air matress. They spent a couple of hours sleeping there while dad played with Ansley and made breakfast. Does that sound fair? Oh well.
The best story of the week was this. Elizabeth was holding her hands out wide. I said, "Elizabeth, how much do you love daddy?" She kept her hands spread out wide and smiled so big. Then, Heather thought she would try. "How much do you love mommy Elizabeth?" Elizabeth wrapped her hands around her chest super fast as if to say not at all! She then started laughing about it while everyone in camp got a huge laugh too. Maybe that is why Heather felt like she had to have one-on-one with Elizabeth in bed.
Also going on - Ansley had her first bubble bath with her cousins the other day (on right) while Elizabeth took a little nap with Grand-daddy (on right).
Anyway - that is the update for right now. Hope you all enjoy the pics as much as we do. Love you all -
