End of summer...

As it does every year, the summer comes to an end, mommy goes back to work and the babies go back to daycare/school... here are a few pictures from the last month...

Enjoy the pics!

We took a little hike around the Potomac... beautiful falls!





We went to the Renaissance Festival with the Stewarts. We had a great time!

Waiting in line with the Stewarts... we had a great time hanging out with them.





Daddy ran a 5K... great time too, 21:07 minutes!

Run daddy run!!!




Recuperating...

Back to school...

Mommy starts back to work! Her new classroom...

Dagny's 15 month checkup...

I know, a little late, but the start of a new job is my excuse...

Our little girl is doing GREAT!

At 15 months she was....

*She is 21 lbs, putting her in the 25%
*She is 31 inches, in the 75%
*Her head was 18 1/4 inches, between 50% - 75%

Overall she is doing very well.

She has about 15 signs and 6 - 7 words.
Her comprehension in both ASL and spoken English is amazing...

*Just like Ainsley, she has a fit when you don't do what she wants.
*She loves to stand and then fall down into a sitting position.
*She has a beautiful smile and such a loving disposition... a very sensitive girl.
*She still LOVES dogs and holds her favorite dog "sammy" by the tail and follows him around... and bugs love to bite her.
*She is a carboholic, eating all kinds of noodles, breads, madelines, etc.
*She gives the BEST hugs and kisses!!!
*Dagny has to have everything her sister does :-)

Enjoy the pictures of her playing on a train...
