7 months old and weekend of firsts

Where is time going?  How is Naomi already 7 months old??  The last 7 months have flown by.  Here is Naomi on her 7 month "bday" on Friday.  It was also her first time in a swing at the park.  She really liked it. (And yes, it was warm enough all weekend to play at the park without a coat.)

Naomi truly has such a sweet disposition. She is smiles and happiness, easy going and beautiful.  I know she is only 7 months, but you can already see what a joyful spirit she has.  I already feel that I've a lot to learn about being carefree and joyful from her.

Another first this last weekend was Audrey riding a horse for the first time. We went to birthday party at a ranch and the kids were able to ride miniature horses.  Audrey has an adventurous spirit - as long as she feels safe and secure. She seems to be getting more and more sure of herself, especially now that she's 4. She'll often say, "now that I'm 4..." before she tries something new.  And seems brave enough to try more and more these days.  She only hesitated a brief moment before getting on the horse.

She was definitely excited that she got to ride.  

It was a great weekend with the family. We sure are blessed with two amazing daughters.
