On July 16th the twins turned two. This was an especially meaningful celebration for us since we'd prayed for so long that the Lord would allow us to have them in our home by their second birthday. What a treat to get to enjoy them during this very fun age. We had our families into town and my sweet friend Jenny let us use her pool to swim. It was cloudy and cool that day but everyone was so sweet to still make the most of it. I'll give some bullet points about the girls' personalities at this age for our scrapbook:
- It's impossible not to laugh when Evie smiles, all over dimples
- It's impossible for your heart not to melt when Abbie smiles
-The girls love for Nathan to come home, they stand at the top of the stairs and scream and reach for him until he makes it up the stairs.
- Abbie is still daddy's girl and beams when she sees him and is most content in his arms
- Abbie loves to eat spaghetti and smears it all over her face, she's also a big fan of donut holes
- Both girls still love dogs with a close recent second being big trucks
- They are wearing 18 month clothes
- They are starting to give each other more hugs and holds hands in the car pretty frequently
- They are beginning to pat their bunnies instead of just throwing them on the floor after they kiss them :) : update- they go nowhere without the bunnies these days, it's really cute
- They are beginning to "sing" along to the music in the car
- They started speech therapy this month and saying many new words: car, apple, Bible ("ible" most of the time), ouch, bracelet, ball, etc. They are really beginning to mimic everything
- Beginning to enjoy dipping their food which is a lifesaver when trying to get them to eat something they don't want
