Dinner with Friends






We went out to dinner with our good friends Cory and Regan....and of course the perfect little Finnegan. He is now giving kisses which is just adorable! They are due in October so we are trying to fit in our adventures before we are all sitting at home with two babies this winter.

We went up to Silver Lake which is only a few minutes from our house just in case she decided it was not her cup of tea.

Don't worry the life jacket was not smothering her as it appears to be in this picture.

Here are a few pictures of her trying to keep her balance on our front porch.

First Steps

Tonight we had gotten home from running errands and getting Clairana a swing - which she loves.

We sat down with some popcorn to relax and Clair took her first two steps to try and get the popcorn off of the table!

We will see if it continues, she looked pretty scared afterwards.

Indiana Dunes

I had a girlfriend call last minute to see if we could go to the dunes the next morning.  I hesitated at first because we were booked all ni...
