Lexi has gotten 2 teeth and it feels like she's working on 3-4 more on the top. Livy still has none, but chews on everything, so I'm sure something is going on in those gums of hers.
Livy stood up (without holding onto anything) for the first time on 8/10/12. I'm sure it was just a fluke, but I was amazed that she was so steady on her own. On 8/26/12, Livy started crawling after a month of pushing herself backwards across the floor. Lexi couldn't let her leave her behind, so she quickly followed suit 2 days later.
The girls have become pros at spending the night away from home. The first trip was to Nana and Papa's for 3 nights so Mom and Dad could enjoy some time together at the beach. The second trip came just one day after we got back, and unfortunately, was not for an enjoyable reason. Brandon and I both had to work extended hours because of Hurricane Isaac, and with daycares and schools closed, Wyatt, Lexi, and Livy went to stay with Mawmaw and Pawpaw. I managed to stay with them all but one of the nights. I don't know what we would have done without Brandon's parents and sister. They were a huge help! We finally got to sleep in our own beds after many sleepless nights, everyone slept soundly all night.

I love the expression on Livy's face in this one.
