Feeling better and getting into trouble...

Everyone is finally better after our bout with croup and some really bad colds. We are getting much more sleep this week than we did the last two weeks and there is a lot less whining. Kathryn had a huge weekend this past weekend. She started to consistently pull herself up and she is starting to walk with a push behind walker. Before the weekend, she loved to just stand behind the walker but she couldn't quite figure out what to do with her legs. It has been so much fun to watch all of them develop. It is so great to see their faces when they realize that they can do something new. And, it is obvious that they are loving their new found freedom. I actually think this stage is more exhausting because you cannot sit down for more than 5 minutes without having to get up and chase someone or help someone that is stuck behind something or under someone else. Normally, I would be in bed by 8PM, but I have been glued to the TV the past two nights watching The Bachelor until 11PM.

We are realizing that one of the Becklets is quite the ringleader when it comes to getting into trouble. I'll let you guess which one it is.....

We took the Becklets to get their 1 year pictures today!!! I know, I can't figure out how that happened either, but it's true. Their birthday is Monday! We didn't get the perfect pictures that we were hoping for but their weren't many tears so we consider it a successful photo shoot. Here are some of the proofs....
