Here are the girls in their new highchairs. They are Graco Neat Seat Reclining Highchairs, in case you're curious (but I don't think they make them anymore). The girls seem to like them. They have room to move, and they catch most of the food. The girls' favorite features are the toys that mount onto the tray. All of the toys squeak or whistle, which the girls love. It gets a little noisy during the meals, but that's okay.
Both of the girls are getting their first teeth. Lillie has one about a third of the way up and another one breaking the skin. Gracie has her first one popping through right now. They are dealing with it pretty well. I haven't noticed much extra gnawing going on, although about a week ago they were both a little extra cranky. But all is pretty good now.
I finally put together their high chairs over the weekend, so now the girls can sit at the dinner table with us while we eat. They love eating little bits of our grown-up food and being able to see us during dinner. We were using booster seats before this, sitting them on the couch and feeding them there. The high chairs are much better.
The girls woke up a little hard the other morning, and Lori quickly grabbed the camera to preserve the moment. Poor Gracie. I'm sure she'll get even with us someday. Oh well.
A Happy New Year to everyone out there! The new computer is up and running fine and fast, so I'll be posting new pictures in no time. (I just have to load Photoshop 7 yet.)
The girls are doing fine. Lillie has her first tooth popping through and is clapping and waving. Gracie is busy playing all of the new musical toys in the house. They both love ice cream and 'The Wheel of Fortune.'
Just a quick update for you. Talk to you soon.
