Bows

Estelle's hair is getting longer and she's finally letting me put in bows, clips and pony tails. They still don't last very long, but she sits still more when I try to brush her hair, which is a big improvement.

 

Playhouse

I made a cloth playhouse that fits over a card table for the girls. I tend to bring it up and set it up over the weekend, so they have something different to play with. At first Estelle was the only one who enjoyed crawling in and looking out the windows, but now Harriet seems to have gotten the idea.

 

Snowman

We've had a couple of good snows here in St Louis as winter came to an end. One day I took Estelle out while Harriet napped and we built a snowman. She really loved playing out in the snow and could have stayed out there for hours.

 

 

 

New foods

We are starting to explore different foods with Harriet. Here she is trying out a slice of apple. She didn't seem to like it very much or maybe just wasn't sure exactly what to do with it.

 

Mimi & Papa

My parents came in town over Valentine's Day weekend for a short visit. Keith and I actually got to go out and have a breakfast date Saturday morning, which was so nice. Plus we got our taxes done. Thanks Dad!!

 

Teething

Harriet chew on every and anything she can get into her moth these days. Hoping to see many more teeth in the near future.

 

8 Month Photos

Here are Harriet's 8 month photos (very late in being posted).

 

 

As always, Estelle joining in on the photo shoot.

 

My moving target.

Sweet Harriet

Indianapolis

I have not posted in about a month. This has been due to being overwhelmed in just about every aspect of my life. Nothing bad, just too much to do and not enough hours in the day.

 

 A month ago I went to the national physical therapy conference, when I had the opportunity to present. Here's me and my poster.

Since I got back from the conference life has been keeping all the Templins busy. I have been working lots of overtime due to one of my PTs being on maternity leave. Keith has been busy with work and the beginning of lacrosse season. Harriet has not been sleeping through the night, so we are sleep deprived. And Estelle has been just about perfect thankfully. In addition to normal day to day activities, Keith and I are in the market for possibly buying a new house, which has consumed even more of our time. So that's the reason for the lack of posts the past month. I have been taking pics and will try to catch up over the next week or so.
