More fall photos




Here are some more pictures we took this weekend. Both Charlie and Sofie like to taste the wood chips at the park. Yum! It has been the most beautiful fall in MN so far. We are also in love with our neighborhood where we have big, beautiful, old trees (which means lots of leaves to rake) and charming streets and parks to stroll through.

Also included is a picture of Charlie and Sofie with their friend Claire, my friend Lindsay's little one.

Thanks, again, for checking out our blog!

Fall

Ahhh, we love this weather! Sunny, cool days are our favorites! Charlie and Sofie love the big, red maple leaves in the yard. They hold on to them like they are precious treasures . . . so cute!

Sofie is catching up with her brother in the walking department. I like to call her Walker, Texas Ranger as she stumbles around the house. Again, cute.

Here are some videos of our two toddlers.

Keeping busy at the Dumonts'



Charlie and Sofie started ECFE this month. We've only had one class so far, but it is so fun to play with other babies our age and visit with other moms as well! Here's a photo of our first day before we got in the car.

We also had our 15 month check up last week. Charlie and Sofie are doing great! They are both around the 50th percentile for height and weight and the doctor noted how well behaved and happy they both are! We agree, of course! Charlie is walking all over the house, and yard, and park, etc. Sofie walks when she wants to, and is so proud of herself, but still prefers crawling as her method of transportation.

After our long awaited concrete work was finished this summer, we wanted to get started on some landscaping around our new patio and back step. A few evenings after dinner, a hot Saturday afternoon, and 16 bags of wood chips later, we finished! Yay! Nothing beats the satisfaction of a little hard work around the house!

Here are a couple of photos of our new patio and steps,
plus a couple of cute kids!

Here we go!

This is our first post on our new blog! We've been displaying pictures, videos, and other updates on our About My Baby page, but now that Charlie and Sofie are getting older, and really aren't babies anymore, we thought we'd continue here on blogger. Enjoy, everyone!
