We're Alive

So, I know it has almost been a month since we last posted, so I only ask you wait a few more days before the "Since We Left Off" post. I did want to let my loyal readers, all four of you, know we are alive and doing well. The girls are settling in and loving being home with their Momma all day, even though I am sure their Momma is craving adult interaction.

More to come shortly about the transition to Canada, how the girls are doing, and the dogs thoughts on having a tenth the yard they had before.

As you can see, Harper (or Lil' Sammie with less forehead, as Shelley calls her) has her top two teeth. Late breaking update - the upper canines are starting to drop this week. She's doing great - she already 20 pounds, which is just about eight behind her sister.

Other than the fact Finley doesn't allow Harper to have any toys of her own, they are doing great together. Fin is more than happy to let us know when Harper is commando crawling someplace she isn't supposed to. Harper has yet to crawl from her knees, but she has just about gone across the entire first floor scooting on her belly. When she gets to where she wants to go, she is pulling herself up, which she loves to do into Finley's purple polka dot chair. As you might imagine, Finley isn't crazy about that new trick.

We've gotten Finley enrolled in gymnastics again, which started last week, but she is most excited about her dance class, which starts Saturday. Shelley had to go to a dance supply store to pick up a leotard, tights, and ballet slippers -- all pink, for the class. As Finley is really into Angelina Ballerina and Olivia, she couldn't be more excited to dance.

That's all for now. I'm sorry I've been so remiss in posting, but as we get into more of a routine, I promise to return to my 7 to 10 to 14 day postings of the past. I hope you all are well and we miss everyone.
