Lauren

I guess she thought that if she stood in the play food container, she would be able to reach better...

She loves to pull all the movies and books off the shelf.

She loves trying to put the blocks in the top of the blocks container. I don't think her ball will fit, though... :)

Discovery Place

We went to Discovery Place a couple weeks ago over Jon's fall break. It was a nice morning as a family. We didn't realize exactly how much was closed due to their construction, so there wasn't really that much to do. We plan on going again when everything is open.

Yeah, it's blurry...sorry.

Lauren was great the whole morning--even when she pretty much missed her nap.

We met up with Jon's grandparents for lunch.

the girls liked playing in the rockers

This is the girls' newest thing--they pull the cushions off the couch and jump! We try to save it for rainy days. :)

Lauren walking

Here is a video of Lauren walking across our living room. Excuse Karin--she wanted to get in on it too. :)

Drumroll...

Lauren is walking! Tonight, she walked across the room! I'll post a video when we get a good one! :)

Apple Farm, etc.

We went up to Niven's Apple Farm in Spartanburg last Saturday to pick some apples. It was a really nice place and we all had a lot of fun.

How tall this fall?

Is what you have better than mine?

They had a really nice playground for the kids. Karin loved jumping on the tire.

Evidently, Daddy needed help with the wagon.

with Mimi and Papa--we were so glad they could meet us there!

Lauren crawled back in the corner and was looking at the Bible story book.

Sewing

Some sewing projects I've done recently.

Beautiful Weather

The past few days have been just gorgeous here, so we've been outside a lot. Here are some picture of the girls playing in the pine needles.
