Abigail 6 months

Abigail is getting pretty good at reverse. Unfortunately, she sometimes runs into obstacles

Eloise likes holding her sister. Abigail is getting durable enough she gets a chance to more often.

Eloise enjoys visiting our prospective house. She likes helping to measure things. She is very earnest as she wanders around with the tape measure.

Abigail now has one little tooth. It is big enough to feel, but it doesn't really photograph well yet.

June 4

Abigail almost got eaten by a saber tooth tiger at the zoo, but Eloise was there to save her

And tries to lick it too

Poor Abigail. Her mom continues to harass her.

Here is Abigail's first tooth, the second one showed up the night before this was taken (June 12), but is hard to see.

We took a trip to the Long Beach Aquarium with Robert's brother and his family. Both Eloise and Abigail enjoyed watching the fish

On the way to the aquarium, Eloise said she was really excited to see sharks, they were her favorite. Imagine how excited she was to touch one!. This touch tank has rays and leopard sharks. Notice the pigtails, wet to her chin.

Eloise is playing "decorate her house for a party." Her house is the front porch. She decorated the candle holder with dandelions and clover. She decorated the lemon tree with geraniums

Eloise was very excited for her first dance concert. She has been taking a dance/creative movement class after preschool, taught by one of the school staff. This is their mermaid song

This dance was to "Splish Splash I was taking a bath." Eloise was highly distracted by her duck. She spent a fair amount of the dance number adjusting him. But that put her about on par with the rest of the 3 and 4 year olds.

Two teeth documented at last. They are sharp little things

Abigail loves having someone on the floor with her. She also loves climbing on people. Any body part she can reach will do, but heads are a favorite.
