Princess party for 2

Well I have been waiting to post this blog till I got my pictures uploaded. Last weekend Allie had an early soccer game and then we came home to watch the Texas/OU game. So first here are a few shots from the game:I have very few where I was able to actually get her face, but I am going to try and bring my camera to the next few games this season to get some better ones. Her team is 5 and 3 so far this season, and has improved alot since last year.

OK now on to the Princess party. Allie was playing dress up during the football game last Saturday and I kind of joked that she should do daddy's make-up and nails. He did not say anything but she wanted to do her make-up so we went and got it, and then next thing I know she had put her Cinderella wig on Heath and was putting make-up on him. He would not let her paint his nails, but he had eye shadow, lip stick, and glitter on his cheeks. I could see the glitter on him for the next few days. Heath is such a good daddy he just sat there and let her do pretty much anything she wanted. What a great daddy. So here are the pictures:

We have a walker

Austin is finally walking. He turned 16 months last week, so I was honestly getting a little worried since he still was not walking. He would cruise around the furniture, climb anything and everything, and even take 1 or 2 steps going from 1 thing to the next, but that was it. He has had no interest in walking or standing on his own. That is until this weekend several times we saw him let go and just stand in one spot for about a minute. Then late Saturday he took about 5 or 6 steps. And now he is doing that over and over. He will not go to much more than that but he keeps doing it so I know our world is about to change again, big time.

UPDATE: I started this blog like 4 days ago and since then Austin is really walking. He will cross the room and is so proud of himself. He just gets this big smile on his face every time he sees us looking at him walking. It is so cute. I can hardly believe he is so big already. He has been sick the last 2 days with a cold and major teething issues and this morning he just sat in my lap and let me hold him for about 5 minutes without moving. It was so nice to get to snuggle with my little guy since he is hardly ever still. Even though we have been wanting him to walk it makes me sad that he is getting big. He has also developed this wonderful new habit of throwing whatever he has in his hand or nearby if you try and take something from him that he is not supposed to have. Today he got a hold of this whistle key chain that lights up that Allie just got today from school. When I went to take it from him he chucked it onto the rocking chair and broke it. I felt so bad for her, I tried to fix it for about an hour, but could not get the light part to work. I sure hope Austin gets out of this phase fast before he breaks something else of hers or hits me in the face with whatever it is he is throwing.

Alright well that's about it for the Austin post. I will try and post pictures of the last few weeks later this weekend. We have a soccer game tomorrow and then are either going to the pumpkin patch or the arboretum afterward so I should have lots of new pics. Plus some good ones from last weekend (you will have to wait to see them, but you will just die, here's a hint we had 2 pretty princesses in the house last weekend.
