The girls are walking! It was hotly debated who would be first...Mom and Dad both had their money on Madison as she'd been doing LOTS of standing and half-attempts to take steps, but the winner is Brooklyn. Well, sort of. Madison watched Brooklyn zip confidently through the room shortly after taking just her first few steps and decided she wasn't to be outdone. No more than 12 hours later, Madison joined in on the walking.
It's getting hot outside but the girls don't mind. A day on the floor at home just isn't what it used to be. There have been lots of festivities to kick off the summer, starting with Aunt Laura's wedding this past weekend with all Mom's extended family in town from coast-to-coast. (Pictures to follow on the next update).
The community pools around here are awesome but generally pretty crowded, so....we got our own "waterpark."
Brooklyn loves the hundreds of convenient drinking fountains that come out the side.
It has been a hard-fought battle over the months but in the summer sun and heat, the girls are starting to finally appreciate the hats and sunglasses that they once promptly removed.
We've been to local music and arts festivals, an extreme mountain sports event, and more.
Aunt Laura's wedding was in Vail where we spent 6 days of fun. The weather was mostly great and we visited parks, went for hikes, and feasted with family. Grannie D (Danny's mom) made the trip to hang out with the girls so Mom and Dad could get their party on for a few nights.
Just as quickly as we celebrated Madison's graduation from oxygen, we needed to resort to old habits as an extra few thousand feet of elevation took a toll and required an extra whiff for a few days, but we're happy to be back home and on "room air"
