Growth and Development update

The cheerfulness continues here. Annalise is a completely new kid. This afternoon, she was chasing the neighbor's dog around with mulch (happens a lot around here) and she fell and bumped her face. Of course, no on saw what actually happened because we (the adults) were too busy visiting. We picked her up and she had blood. I thought she bit her tounge. When we got home, I checked her out again and found a new tooth poking through! Her front left tooth is now showing! This is her fourth tooth and she is still is a Jack-o-lantern because there is a big gap between the two upper teeth where one is supposed to be coming in.Also, in the same yard with the dog, mulch and visiting, she took a step without holding onto anyone. I have 2 witnesses! I'm not sure this qualifies as her "first steps' but we are getting there. No DQ blizzards yet, Uncle Kevin. Maybe by the time we come to your house. Oh, and you are treating, godfather.
Evie is still here too. Today, we walked down to the road construction. The workers told us that they are laying sod in the median this week and the road should be Open! Horray! This will make the commute to preschool really fast!
