This has been a busy and eventful month for us! Elliot is in full motion now and we are spending most of our time chasing after him as he is quite the daredevil! All he wants to do is stand up now and tries to pull himself up on anything and everything. Walking is just around the corner!
Ava is not really interested in crawling much but she's trying hard to pull herself up to stand already. She will scoot around on her bottom to move around a bit, but not really into the hands and knees thing. She may be one of those babies that never crawls, she's just going to get up one day and walk across the room!
We had the March of Dimes Walk for Babies this past Saturday which was a huge success and lots of fun. The babies were fantastic during the entire event. It never ceases to amaze us how adaptable they are and how well they do in social situations. Especially Elliot, the social butterfly!
Here are some photos from the past few weeks....AND I FINALLY was able to get some videos uploaded to share!! I've been trying for months without success, but have finally gotten it to work! Yeah!!

MARCH OF DIMES WALK FOR BABIES
SATURDAY, MARCH 27, 2010
The walk was a huge success and Chris' company, Merrill Lynch, won "Top New Team" for raising $10,000 this year!! Chris did a fantastic job with the fundraising!!

Getting a picture with Albert and Alberta before the walk kicked off. Elliot really liked them and was trying to grab Alberta's nose :)
Getting ready to kick off the walk. The Ambassadors got flags to wave and got to lead the start of the walk.
Ambassador Lane. This is where we hung out during the walk. We sat by our posters and waved and thanked the walkers as they came by. There were about 6,000 participants this year so there was a lot of waving and thanking going on!
Chris and Ava saying hi to everyone. It was a very chilly morning but the babies were troopers!
Ava was not a fan of being woken up at 5:45am to get ready for the walk. She was asleep soon after the event began! Elliot, on the other hand, was ready to play!
Our friends, Teri and Jenah (the twins' fantastic babysitter!) stopped by to visit.
Elliot in all his glory, being passed around by the Gator cheerleading squad! This kid's going to be trouble one day!!
Don't worry ladies, there's plenty of me to go around!
