Well our laptop bit the dust. It is what I used to write my blogs after the girls were in bed. I could sit and nurse Charlotte and post. But now that's gone, boo-hoo. But I'm going to try this app on my phone and see how it works. Here are some pictures of what's been going on lately.

Busy
Well it has been very busy around here. We've been doing a lot and at night I have just been too tired to do any blogging. But my mom says everyone keeps asking about the girls, so I had better do something about it. Here are a few (I mean, a lot) of pictures of what we've been doing.
My little brother got engaged!!
| Aaron and Emily |
| Her ring. The center diamond was my grandmother's. I think he did a pretty good job picking out a setting! |
We have had lots of fun playing!

| Elizabeth helped paint Charlotte's face at an outing for my work. |

| Elizabeth borrowing her friend's baby doll Ergo. How cute is that?! |
Elizabeth learned how to pedal her bike!
She also likes to sing!
There has been a lot of sisterly love.
And Mommy love!
I did my first 5k! It only took me 47 minutes of running/walking. It probably would have been faster to just walk the whole way. At least I didn't finish last!
Elizabeth keeps us hopping!

| She falls asleep with her book on her face. |
Charlotte turned 6 months old! She is 15 lbs, 11.5 oz.
Head circumference is 45 cm, and 65 cm (24.5 in) long
So that's about it! Sorry for the looong post :)

Look at my big girl!
Things have been busy lately, but with that kind of busy that you aren't really quite sure what is taking up all your time, but it is. Charlotte just started rolling over, which is pretty exciting.
Elizabeth's imagination is going at full tilt. She loves pretend games like being a puppy for the day, talking to her invisible friends, and so on. She uses it a lot at bedtime. The other night she came out of her room and told me that her room stunk. "It stinks Mom. There is a skunk." I said, "Really? Your room stinks? Are you sure you didn't just toot? " Elizabeth: "No, there's a skunk. He's following me." Finally I got her to talk to the skunk, tell it to stop following her and say good night. After that she went to bed and went to sleep.
Then the past couple of nights, I've had to help search for all the monsters in her room. The fan is a monster. There's one in the closet, behind the door, and under the rocking chair. Ahhh, imagination!
Elizabeth also had a milestone the other day. She got her first library card and checked out a couple of books. She was so proud!
Charlotte has been teething and chewing on everything. Elizabeth gave her one of her toothbrushes to chew on. Charlotte loved it. But then of course, Elizabeth wanted to chew on one too. I guess it's never to early to start good dental hygiene habits! ;)

Singing
Elizabeth has been singing a lot lately. Sometimes you can even tell what song it is supposed to be! Sometimes she's just silly.
Today she decided to do a "show" with a stage and microphone!
