Stairs...

So, Lainey now knows how to climb stairs. They grow up too darn fast! Before you know it they want to be so independent! Just ask Bubba, he came swimming with us today, and Leecy T wants to do everything on her own now! She has learned to "swim" with her vest on, and loves it! She never wants to leave the pool! I can't believe my babies are so grown up!

Via La France

Finally, France. Thanks for letting me share. After paying a taxi driver to not take us anywhere, we had an amazing French adventure. We stayed near the Champs Elysees and toured the city. The buildings were beautiful and all about the same color so no distractions there. The Effiel tower was so cool and
WE MADE IT TO THE TOP!
No small feat for those of us with a touch of height fears. The Louvre was full of wonderful art and Trey even took the Davinci Code tour. We did the metros in all the cities so we fill we made a mark of trying to fit in. We took a river boat tour and went to Notre Dame, don't you think the gargoyles look like the ones in the Disney movie?
What a great adventure.

!!!HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY LEECY T!!!

SPAIN

SPAIN was so fun and we had great tour guides helping us do it all! We enjoyed chocolate and churros for breakfast, a wonderful seafood lunch at the market, we saw Gaudi's great architecture in at least four different places. Patty fixed us these tasty little tapas for dinner and Eric supped up some yummy pizzas. We walked up a BIG hill to see Guill Park which was awesome. We had donner kabobs and chased pigeons. And we saw lots of local attractions and much much more. All this while dad worked out his new job.
What wonderful memories!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY BIGGIE T!!!

Thanks for being a great provider
and showing unconditional love always.
Have a wonderful Father's day and good luck on your new adventure!

The girls!

Leecy T and Lole! Best friends!
Swim time!
Lainey standing all by herself! 7 months
"Can't we just go swim now! Enough with the pictures!"
Cheese!

The girls are growing so fast these days! Lainey can stand alone for a few seconds now and is getting more fearless every day. She crawled over to the stairs this morning, (I followed her)but fortunately because she is so tiny she can't get her knees up and over the stairs, so I guess I have a little more time before I have to worry about that! Leecy T, thanks to her Dad's sense of humor, now refers to her bathroom trips as going onesies and twosies! I can't say that I didn't laugh, because I definately had a good chuckle over it! I can't believe she will be 3 in less than a week and a half. Where does the time go? Sorry I haven't posted more pictures of the girls, but life just seems to always be crazy! We love you all!

ENGLAND

Here is a bit of England we thought we'd share with you.
We had a great time...eating fish and chips at the sea shell, watching the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, taking the boat tour of the River Thames, exploring the British museum,
visiting Abbey Road and where we used to live, seeing Harrods, and Trafalgar Square, Piccadilly circus and eating in Leister Square. We explored the Tower of London and saw Tower Bridge open, we watched Othello performed superbly at the New Globe theatre standing like they did in days of old. We even enjoyed our bus tour more than once. It's hard to believe we were really there.
