I am so very glad to see she is doing so well!
@ATXMommas - Love the TBT of Ash at 11 weeks compared to now. Crazy how quickly these little buggers grow! He's as adorable as ever!
And.. for some reason it won't let me delete the pic in my post that accidently uploaded twice. Oh well!

We are Mommas to four fur babies - 3 dogs and 1 cat.
@2MamazInSeattle - it would have been awesome if Simone had decided to stick out her tongue.
Both our babes are pulling themselves up on EVERYTHING, and falling A LOT. On Monday we had our first trip to urgent care. Not a fun time.
Second pic is our temporary baby gate while we try to figure out a better solution. Our 1928 craftsman has 23 inch wide doors and the smallest baby gates we can find are 24 inches. Any ideas?
Love all the pics of the babies and parents!
