Professional Pictures

Hello All! Here are the kids latest professional pictures. I tried out this company that actually comes to your house to do the pictures. I really liked it but it was really expensive, so we won't be doing that again. I only got a few 5x7s since they were so expensive so I am going to have more printed on my own. If you would like any of these pictures, just let me know how many and of what size and I will order them for you. By the way, these were taken when Owen was 3 months old and Ellie was 21 months old. We plan on getting the next professional pictures when Ellie is 2 and Owen is 6 months.
Ellie is doing wonderfully. She really amazes me everyday as to how much she knows and is learning. Yesterday we went to the park and played for a couple of hours. She really likes the slides still and now wants to swing but ONLY on the big kid swings which scares me. We have been playing kitchen quite a bit and she knows all of the play foods that she has. The chore chart hasn't really registered with her yet, but she likes the Velcro.
Owen is such a sweet baby! I swear he has grown just in the last week... a lot! I am sure he is 20 lbs by now. We are going to go get him a new car seat this weekend. It is unfortunate because had he been Ellie's size, we would have been able to move Ellie up to a new car seat and given Owen her old seat by the time he was 20 lbs. Oh well! They will both be in the convertible car seats.
Owen has been teething quite a bit. I don't really like to give the kids medicine, but when he is pain, we give him Tylenol and a little baby orajel which has been working really well. Since we got the orajel, I have been able to get enough sleep. He still just has the one tooth, but the second one is right there ready to sprout!

Daniel and I have been sick.... AGAIN! I think Daniel is having horrible allergies and I am having yet another sickness involving a sore throat. Owen has been struggling with allergies since he was born, but besides that we are trying to keep the kids healthy.

All in all, things are going really well. We are still loving life and enjoying Austin.
