Snap, one of the one year old great nephews who we saw today is walking, the other standing up at least. I told their parents as we will be looking after them for a few hours in a couple of weeks to not allow them to walk until after their visit to our place. Clearly my request was ignored and I'm now fitness training to be able to catch them.
But you don't have to worry, just sit back and and let others chase them.
Oh, THAT is competition. The "bad" side of having a sibling... Expectations are high... I hope they´ll always help each other... And are proud of each other!
That IS breaking news! Congrats to Ana, and looking forward to Gen's milestone. Like you said, it probably won't be long. I'm sure you will keep us posted.
Not exactly environmentally friendly...... Line the base of your oven with a sheet of aluminium foil.

You all know the ice cream company? Very expensive ice cream, which I recently discovered in small tubs at my local supermarket. I'd heard about Salted Caramel ice cream, with some bloggers raving about it, so when I saw the Haagen-Dazs tubs on sale for only $5 I bought some. I loved it! Fabulous stuff.

The link popped up with an address to "General Mills" which I then clicked on only to find a small popup informing me they were "offline".

Get your skates on Andrew! Ha Ha. Wait until they realise they can now reach much more stuff that they shouldn't touch.
DeleteSo exciting - Genevieve will be desperate to catch up with her sister.
ReplyDeletejabblog; she will be and it won't take long.
DeleteWonderful news. I am smiling at Andrew's comment too.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; I am just bursting with happiness.

Iris; I think they will always be close and help each other. When they were in the same crib they would hold hands as they slept.
DeleteHow can they be that old already? How times flies.
ReplyDeleteKathy G; I know! A year and a bit already!
DeleteExciting!!
ReplyDeleteSteve Reed; it's very exciting for their daddy, these are his first children.
Deletepictures....we want pictures.
ReplyDeleteyellowdoggranny; I don't have any, I live too far away, and the parents weren't ready with their phones when she walked those few steps.

ReplyDeleteVal; I was so surprised to get the message from my son, but he wasn't quick enough to capture it on video. Gen will be toddling around soon too.
DeleteHooray!
ReplyDeletemessymimi; I'm still smiling so widely my face hurts.
DeleteAwesome!! I can't want to see the videos of the twins roaming around.
ReplyDeleteMr Shife; I don't visit as often but I'll see what I can do.
DeleteSweet
ReplyDeleteJohn going Gently; thank you :)
DeleteFirst steps are always the most exciting.
ReplyDeleteGranny Annie; they sure are!
