Visit with Owen & Ashley

Rachel & I went to St. Catharine's (well, Thorold to be exact) to visit Owen, Ashley & Lora. We had a good visit, even though it was short but we will hopefully see them again soon.

Gotta love the 'open mouth' look, eh?
Owen was helping Ashley open up her birthday gift


I LOVE Ashley's face in this picture - as if she's saying 'TA DA'


Lora had this walker for Ashley & Owen when they weren't walking yet so we tried Rachel in it yesterday. She really liked it so Lora said we could borrow it. When I put Rachel in it last night, she just moved herself to the dishwasher and then talked away to her reflection. It was too funny. Unfortunately we have a lot of carpet in our house so Rachel will only be able to use this in the kitchen area or the basement...or even outside I guess. She's doing really well walking if you hold on to her hands but she doesn't quite get the fact that when she walks with a toy she needs to move her legs! :) I think the walker will help her with that. The good news is that we don't have any stairs for her to fall down (we have a door to our basement).

I love the picture with the two of them with their mouths open - priceless! :)

Good for Rachel doing well with walking with hands!! That's awesome! :) Calder prefers to jump, most often only once and then landing on his bum. Silly goose.

I hope you and Rachel are enjoying the summer weather (although it's been a bit rainy here, to say the least!) I only wish we lived closer to you...

Take care and talk soon,
Elizabeth :)
