I'm going to start with Sarah as she always seems to be the over looked one (dominated by her loud bossy sister). Sarah has 'suddenly' grown up so much. Her vocabulary, the 'maturity'/intelligence/understanding in her eyes and face as she converses and talks to me. I love this girl. She's our moody one, but she's learning to be self-controlled. We're slowly working on allaying her fear of hair washing at present - one of us has to hold her hands (at her insistence - for comfort), while the other washes with her 'special' new No Tears shampoo. Saturday night is hair wash night for the girls.

Abigail continues to be our loud crazy one (such a contrast to how she was as a baby!). She is looking forward to growing up and having a wedding - wearing a white dress and a veil. Last night Great Grandmas Randall and Sheehy came for dinner and Abigail discovered their stockinged feet - wearing such stockings is also now on her list of things for when she's a woman. And she is very keen to wear any of my jewellery whenever I let her (something I've only recently started wearing). My little girl is looking forward to becoming a big girl! Both girls are getting very helpful with doing jobs around the home; it is such a help! Now I'm greatly looking forward to when they can wash dishes!

Caleb (almost 8 months old now) continues to charge through his mobility milestones. He can now climb and is practicing standing alone. He has started babbling lately which is very cute. And loud. We went to an afternoon service at Great Grandma Randall's church a couple of weeks ago and I had to stand outside with him as he kept up a steady loud sermon of his own. He likes to eat dirt and tissues. Well, any small bits of rubbish that fit in his mouth! He's finally learning the meaning of 'no' and what the 'don't touch' areas/objects are which is helping! Hopefully that means cords and plugs will soon be safe from his attention.....
