November 2007

The girls are growing up too fast. Deirdre is now 21 months old, and Lorien is 3 months!


Deirdre in an outfit my mom saved for me when I had kids, something she used to dress me in. I have old photos of me in this very outfit. Deirdre seems pleased enough to be wearing it, though she has never given me trouble over outfits and I hope that continues to be our world.



I will have to ask my sister about this, but the expression on Deirdre's face just reminds me of a picture of myself growing up. It's strange because usually I think she looks so much like her Papa.



She is all smiles when she sits in big girl chairs. Sometimes her "playing" will consist of getting up into and down from chairs.



Lorien wondering what in the world is going on. Though she seems comfy enough in her new Bundle Me car seat cover.

Thanksgiving 2007 - November

Thanksgiving was held at Dad and Becky's house this year. It was a lovely meal and the babies looked fabulous in the dresses Auntie Rachael purchased for the occasion.

Becky and Deirdre, all smiles

Lorien sporting her new threads Auntie Rachael bought for her. Notice how utterly ridiculous this child's hair is. There is NOTHING that can be done with it.



After dinner. Clearly.
