Logann and Peyton Update...

Although Peyton is sitting up in the bumbo in this picture, she is actually sitting up on her own now for a limited amount of time before she topples over. This afternoon she sat up all by herself for a few minutes while I was sorting out pictures to put in our picture albums. She did great!

Peyton started eating cereal last week, so this weekend we introduced zucchini! She loves it. She eats about 2 cubes for dinner each night. She also has bananas and cereal for breakfast. It is hard to believe that she is eating solids already. She does really well too...when she's super hungry, she attacks the spoon!

Brent and I got out some of the holiday tubs this afternoon while the girls were napping. We left out the Halloween one so we can start decorating in a few weeks. Logann discovered it after she woke up and she started decorating the house all by herself! I still need to go put everything back into the tubs tonight before she wakes up tomorrow and does it all over again!!!

Logann decided that she wanted to play under the play gym with Peyton! It is so fun to see how they interact together now that Peyton is sitting. Logann notices that she is a real person, not just a sleeping, eating, and pooping "thing!" Logann dances for her and makes her laugh!

Ok...I have to share with you what Brent and I did this weekend! We went to the Keith Urban concert in Portland! There are no words to describe him!!! Most of you all know how I feel about him...but, really...he was incredible!!! Brent and I both agree that everyone should try to go see him in concert...he puts on a great show! We've seen him 5 times now! :0)

Sunriver

We went to Sunriver this weekend with the Tol's, Marteney's, and the Chao's. It was a fun weekend for all. We rented a large house that was loaded with fun things for us to do. We played by the pool on Friday and we (the Dukes') opted out of going to the pool on Saturday because we stayed back at the house to watch the Duck football game. GO DUCKS!!! That was an awesome game! The other three families are Beaver fans (except Melissa) so they, of course, went to the pool. They couldn't stand the fact that Oregon beat Michigan without breaking a sweat :) Here are some pictures from our weekend...

Peyton's first time swimming! She had to wear one of Dakota's swimsuits because I didn't even think of packing one for her! Silly me :)

Logann had a great time swimming in both the kiddy pool and the big kid pool! Notice that she is holding a green football...she is a true Duck fan too...warming up for the big game!

Yes...that is me in my swimsuit! I was a bit scared to get in my swimsuit, but realized that Peyton is already 5 months old, and I better just do it sooner or later! Thank goodness that it is already September and the "getting in my swimsuit" opportunities for the summer are about over! People had to wear their sunglasses around me though...because of the glare coming from my white legs! I can now give Great Grandpa Dukes a run for his money!!!

Ok, here I go again...this wasn't taken at Sunriver, but it was too cute not to post on the blog. She will be 5 months tomorrow (on Brent's 30th birthday!!!) Isn't she just the cutest baby ever! She was such a good baby at Sunriver though...Brent and I were so proud of her! People asked us a few times if she ever cries and if she is always this good!

Ok, thanks for visiting our blog! We love keeping you updated with our growing girls!
