Milestones Remembered

We often visit Sears photo studio to capture the fun stages of life of our sweet girls. So this week we stopped in again to commemorate Savannah turning 2 years old and Alexandra at 8 months old. How these babies are growing so fast baffles me, but alas it is so. Savannah is still our sweet princess and a great big sister. She loves to "help" and count. My favorite thing besides her telling me she loves me is when she'll say "count with me Mommy" and proceed to count 1-4. All of our practicing and then following along with Dora has made her pretty excited to count things. So even at the photo studio we were waiting our turn and after saying "count with me Mommy" she proceeded to count the 11 chairs. I chimed in to help when she got up to eight. Alexandra is also a sweet princess. She adores her big sister and is all smiles for her unless sister is giving her a love-bite. Oops. lol. Little Lexi is already crawling and enjoys exploring to find new toys. We've especially enjoyed that she is in the fun babbling stage too, so we can pretend that she is saying real names like "Mama" or "Vanna." It's such a blessing to have these sweet girls be a part of our family and I am truly blessed to be their Mom.

I'm not sure what happened to my other comment, but Savannah is so darn cute. We are so excited for your visit in a few weeks, then we can have our celebrating time.
Love you forever,
