Amelia Crawls!!

About a week ago, Amelia started crawling. She does more of an army crawl by only using her arms, but she moves pretty fast! As with Maddie, we used the remote to inspire her to crawl. Not bad for being just 6 months!!

Chuck gets sleepy too!!

Just want to make sure everyone is aware that Chuck has his sleepy moments during football as well. As a matter of fact, this was taken today while he slept through an extremely exciting second half of the Indianapolis Colts game! He slept for 2 hours like this (well with Maddie up and down from there).

New pictures of the girls

We haven't done anything terribly exciting in the past few weeks, but have managed to catch some great pictures of the girls around the house.

The kids are doing well. Amelia is now 6 months old and getting big! She has started crawling this week (We will get a video of this on here soon!). She just uses her arms to pull her along, but she gets quickly gets to where she is going! She is now 18 pounds and 28 in. long. She has her first cold, poor thing. But, she is hanging in there. She still remains all smiles....well, most of the time!

Maddie is keeping us busy. The other day I heard her counting....in Spanish! You can see in this video that she can go all the way to 8!

We had a quiet weekend at home this weekend. We poured some rice in a container and let Maddie play with it. This kept her entertained for nearly an hour (and took about an hour to clean up!).

Her new favorite place to play.....

Halloween

So, better late than never, right? Here are pics from Halloween. We really lucked out with great weather and Amelia got to stroll along with us! She was excited to go for a ride, as usual.

Maddie was a pro. She knew exactly what to say to ask for a piece of candy and, of course, peeked in her bag to see what they gave her while still standing on their porch.

Maddie had a great time, but when she was finished, she was sure to let us know!!

Twas the night before NFL Sunday...

Twas the night before Sunday, and all through the house, all the girls were sleeping, quiet as a mouse...

The Purdue game was on, and none seemed to care. The Boilermaker beating was in full-swing, Spartan points coming from everywhere.

Kiddies were taken, put snug in their beds, images of good teams (like the Colts) dancing in their heads.
