A couple of weeks ago my friend Hilary and I took our girls to a local farm and met up with a few other kiddos and mamas for some apple picking. It was a lot of fun and the girls looked adorable in their wagon together! They did get a bit irritated of the bumpy ride though. Sierra just wanted to get out and run, and Victoria was more interested in snacking than apple picking.
Sierra is just a couple months older than Victoria
They weren't too into having their picture taken
This picture below cracks me up.

A quick update on what our family has been up to...
We are settling in our new town home (still renting, just upgraded to a bigger one...much bigger one compared to the one we were living in.) As soon as we clean up one mess we seem to make another with all the stripping of wall paper and painting. I will post more on that project. Shawn is still busy at work, and others are noticing his hard work and "get the job done" work style. He was given a cash reward for all his professionalism and hard work! That's my Shawny Pooh! Other than work he's been busy with his church calling, helping me paint, hang, and fix stuff around the house. As for me, I've been crazy busy trying to get the house organized, looking good, and feeling more like home-on top of all the mom and wife duties, which seem to be endless, but I love it...except putting together the grocery lists! I've been taking a photography class on Wednesday nights. It's been nice to be in a class room again, pretty fun actually. So if any local friends need some family holiday pics taken, let me know! We also had a little switch-a-roo in Young Women's at church. I was the Secretary in the presidency but the YW pres moved me to the Laurel's Advisor...so I teach the Laurel class (16-17 yr olds) just about every Sunday.
Victoria will be 13 months in a matter of days! A couple of weeks ago she had her 12 month check up and weighed in at 19 1/4 pounds and measured 30 inches tall. She is standing up/ pulling her self up on everything. every now and again she will get brave, let go and balance for a little while. She can crawl supper fast, it's like a sprint crawl. she claps and stomps her feet along with the song "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands...stomp your feet...". And of course she dances to everything and anything that has a beat...cell phone ringers, loud broken grocery carts in Walmart...seriously everything. It's so cute, and it's definitely the Waldron in her (my side of the fam). She likes to tease the kitty and tell her "no no" when I say it. She can say a few of her own words like banana, doggy, balloon, and a few others that sound the same but mean movie, cracker, or whatever. she jabbers all the time! She is still loving books and she just stated shacking her head back and forth like she's saying "no no"....just perfect. We love this little baby girl so much!
