German Delivery from Dear Friends!

We just received a package in the mail from Herlinde and Nick in Germany! What fun!

Lane smelled chocolate before he even opened the box! Thank you for the wonderful coloring books, games, jewelry, tattoos, and candy and for the translations on everything. Chad tasted the soap thinking it was spray candy (Brooke hadn't opened up her bottle with the translation on it yet :)!) It's fun to have dear friends across the ocean, and even more fun to get to have them visit this coming March! We can't wait!

Dance Party!

Proud Mama - Day of Firsts

Lane swam for the first time today with no floaties at Texas Pool. My friend Amanda was there and made this video on her phone :)! Thank you, Amanda! And Brooke swam with floaties only for the first time today. AND Brooke said she wanted to wear panties, not her diaper, on the drive to the pool today. She wore them all the way there and back (30 mins each way) and all was well.

Proud and Happy Mama Day to Me! Love my babies!
