Play-dough Handprints

The other day I made hand impressions of the kids from a home-made play-dough recipe. You mix up the ingredients and roll it out like dough. Then you bake for 2-3 hours. It turned out pretty cool. Noah and I mixed up and I kept some aside for him to play with.

Cheese!!





About a month ago, I scored this great deal on ebay. I got this bike trailer for the kids for only $61 from a guy in Oviedo. The kids seem to love it and I can get around and get some exercise at the same time. What a deal!

First Steps

Gloria took her first steps on her own last week Thursday. (October 5th) Since then she's been cruising the furniture even faster and getting brave every once in a while to take a few more steps on her own. She also does really well holding on to just one of our hands.
Other new developments with her include clapping hands (at everything but especially her brother) and waving bye-bye. I think that she also said bye the other day at the library. Also, for the last month and a half she's been (finally) sleeping all night long. Ah, what a joy. She also takes naps much better now as well.
Her first birthday is just around the corner. I have really enjoyed being home with both kids over the last year. I have savored so many more memories than I ever thought possible. It's been a real treat and extremely worthwhile.
