20 Months Old!

Apples in the park ~ Eileen and Margaret

Yesterday Eileen and Margaret turned 20 months old.  This past month was all about big girl beds and lots and lots of talking.  Rob and I are leaving for a quick trip to Los Angeles tomorrow and we are only half joking with each other when we say that they will probably be speaking in paragraphs when we get back.  Nona, thank you so much in advance for watching the girls while we have fun in the sun!

Last weekend the girls went on their first pony rides at the pumpkin patch with Nona and Grandpa.  Margaret popped her head around like a real cowgirl and Eileen didn't want to get off her pony!  the "cow train" and petting zoo were also huge hits with the girls.

Margaret's first sentence came a few weeks ago ("Have a good day!") and Eileen is so funny right now as she is practicing her patience.  She wants cat cookies and she wants them now!  Here are some of our favorite pictures from the past month...
