Moving and babbling

I have noticed the babies both really starting to move...roll and scoot to get to where they want to be. It is fun to watch. They will probably be crawling any time now! Mitchell really started babbling a lot yesterday. We took Lydia to the Childrens Museum and the babies really enjoyed looking around! Fun day!

Food Frustration

So it is finally starting to get to me....I have been struggling to get Lydia to eat for quite awhile now. I have taken the approach that is recommended by our doctor and not made a big deal out of it so that it doesn't become a power struggle. I am finally at my breaking point. Most people say things like..."_____ will only eat ______." I can't even say that. It seems like everything that she likes or has previously liked, now is not working. I don't want to make multiple meals and haven't, unless we are having something that I know she absolutely will not eat. Yesterday she told me her spaghetti was "scary". AHHHH... It is getting scary to me when I know that she has eaten about 300 calories all week! I know others have to have problems with this....any suggestions?

Gas Station Alert

I had a little laugh to myself today. We went out for dinner and every gas station we passed Lydia reminded Tim and I that we needed to "stop and get some gas in the car". I remember that when I was driving back and forth to work every day I never looked at the gas gauge...it seemed that inevitably I would end up all the way out at AEGON and my gas light would be on. I would never know how long I had been driving before I actually noticed it. Really wouldn't be a big deal except for at that time there were no gas stations close. It was always a little nerve wracking to drive home. So I am grateful that she will fill in for my short fall in that area!

"Water Day"

The first week that we were all home together I tried to still do a few things that were Lydia's school routine and one of them was "Water Day". We did have fun...Kobe had to fill in for Londyn, Peyton, Reese, Lincoln and Shreya. I think he did an OK job. ;-) She had a lot of fun. I remember her yelling out, "I'm crazy in the water with my friends!". I almost cried, because she was alone...Londy just lives around the corner so we still get to see her quite a bit. 

Baptism

Well even though this was in August, I think these little pictures are so cute that I have to share...Mitchell and Eliza were baptized and we were so happy that our families were able to be there...do you think I managed to take a picture of all of them??? Of course not. Shoot. Oh well, the day was wonderful and the babies were on their best behavior. At least I remembered to get pictures of Mitchell and Eliza!!
