The girls had their one year shots and weigh in's last week and are growing like weeds!! Sydney especially as she is in the 97th percentile for height and Kiley is in the 10th. The difference between them is slowly growing and we can't wait to see if that stays the same over the next few years. They have about 2.5 pounds and about 2.5 inches between them now! They took their needles like brave little soldiers though (or so I am told as Dad went in with each of them :) and no side effects so far. 
We have been so happy to have Dad home for the last 2 weeks and will be very sad to have him leave for work tomorrow night :( We kept busy over his holidays with some work and some fun times at the cabin and the same for around the house. We switched the office and the nursery around this week to give the girls a bigger room to play in. Dave had a stomach bug and still managed to paint two whole rooms, trim and a closet. What a trooper! We will post pictures soon.
For MUCH more exciting news.....Kiley took her first step on Monday and has since taken one or two here and there and is trying so hard to get going on her own. Sydney is not in as big of a rush as she loves the time spent walking with Mom, Dad, Nan, Auntie or anyone really! She is steadier on her feet though and when Nan came over last night she was so excited she forgot that she "couldn't" walk and took two steps to Nan. I still don't think she even knows that she did it! It won't be long before we are on BIG trouble.
Kiley had her first trip to Nana and Grandpa's on her own yesterday and came home glowing! Nana picked her up after work and they went home for dinner and ?.... (what happens at Nana and Grandpa's stays at Nana and Grandpa's or so I am told :) Sydney and Mom went grocery shopping-not so fun-and then for a wagon ride with lots of stops and chances to walk around, touch trees and flowers and do things which we can't usually do so that was fun. Nan wouldn't pick who she was taking, of course, and I thought Kiley could use a break the most so Sydney will be next and if I know Nan it will be sooner than later!!
