Summer with the Besselmans

What a busy and fun summer we have had!  We've been so busy and having so much fun that we haven't updated the blog in months.  A lot has changed since mid-June!  Our little girl took her first steps yesterday (and yes, we are proud!).  It won't be long before they are both walking!  Here's what we've been up to this summer (in no particular order)...

"What's silly Aunt Liz doing?"

Happy Birthday Liz!

Babies are 7 months old!

Well, it has been a little crazy around here.  Daddy is working on finishing his Masters degree and Mommy still works part-time at the hospital.  Samuel is sick right now with ear infections in both ears.  Hazel is well for the moment, but there's something going around the neighborhood.  Samuel can army-crawl when he's feeling good and Hazel can get up on her hands and knees, but no one is crawling quite yet.  Samuel weighs almost 19 lbs. and Hazel weighs about 16 1/2 lbs.  And they keep growing!  Here are some pictures taken over the last month.
