Birthday presents

Here are Isla and Fiona enjoying the baby strollers they got for their birthday.

Walkers

The girls are walking all the time now. Here they are in their cute El Salvadorian dresses from Thomas and Diana.

And walking with Nana, who we are delighted to have staying with us for two more weeks!

Happy First Birthday!

The girls are one! What an amazing year we've had. It seems like it has just flown. The girls are walking and seem so grown up all of a sudden. The birthday party was great fun. It was a little chilly but as long as we stayed in the sun we were ok. Thank you to those of you that came to celebrate with us, and those who couldn't be with us but sent cards, gifts and well-wishes instead.
Here are some pictures from the party. I made their little outfits. My friend Jennifer taught me how to make the tutus. I just hand sewed the shirts, and I got the directions for the hats here http://www.skiptomylou.org/?s=felt+birthday+hat

Look Who's Walking!

It's Isla in her new tutu that I made her for her birthday party!

Baby Steps!

They walked! Both of them on the same day. Fiona took about 4 steps and Isla took 2. It was while I was at school, of course. But luckily, Euan and Aileen got Fiona on video. They aren't exactly walking everywhere since, but I have gotten to see them both take a few steps. Here is some footage of Fiona.
