We have found a house! Our offer was accepted Monday and hopefully we'll be moving by the end of Autumn!  

Esme has taken her first steps!

Monday afternoon Esme took her very first step while we were visiting our friend Ellen.  She's taken few more since then but has one little problem.  When we cheer for her she gets excited and wants to start bouncing, but when she bounces she loses her balance and falls down.  
 

I am back from CKU and we had a BLAST!! This photo is of me and one of my scrapping heroines, Becky Higgins! It was so great to share this experience with Lisa and Stephanie. I'm so lucky to have friends like them! If anyone would like to hear more about CKU please give me a call - I love sharing all my fun stories!!  

My mom got Esme a little rocking chair at a yard sale today.

Back at my mom's this afternoon for pool party - here;s Esme about to slide into the pool! 

Esme got worn out after a while in the pool. 

Esme and I enjoy a few days together

While Jenny is at CKU, Esme and I have been having fun together. Thursday Ellen came up and visited. We played cribbage while Esme napped and then went to the Bluebonnet. Laster we went to my mom's and Esme played in the wading pool -- she loved it! Check out the pictures below. Yesterday we went to the library and spent some time outside. Today we are going back to the pool this afternoon before Jenny comes home. It has been great being with Esme but we both miss Jenny!

Esme enjoyed climbing in and out of her chair.

CKU Begins Tomorrow!

Whoo-hooo!! At long last - the day I have been waiting for is tomorrow! Stephanie and I are leaving nice and early from my house and we'll be meeting Lisa there. I can't wait!

Esme talked and sang with Liam and Grace and had a grand old time! 

Last week we went over to swim with Ellen at Joyce's pool. We had a great time with everyone and Esme loved floating around the pool independently in their baby float.
