my dear, childhood friend, tristen, just moved to denver!! we are so excited! we also moved the "big girl bed" into lucy's room (you can see we have set it up as much like a crib as possible) AND we got two pet frogs (and a snail, who keeps the ecosystem clean) for lucy's 2nd birthday (the 26th)! they are african dwarf frogs - about the size of a dime - they will not get any bigger. a year's worth of food = 1 tablespoon of pellets and we only have to change their water once every 6 months!! they will live 2-5 years...very fun. no names yet. kate is starting to sit up on her own. lucy continues to be a very affectionate big sister and kate's face lights up every time she sees and/or hears lucy. very sweet.
