My Famous Father

My step-dad was in the news the other day! He goes hiking with a group of friends, a hiking club, and one of his friends snapped a picture of him on a hike and sent it in as a cool photo to the newspaper. Well, they printed it, and so now my dad is famous. Here's the picture. Click on it to see it bigger and read the caption.

2 Month Check Up

Rachel had her 2 month check up on Thursday! She is very healthy - 12 pounds, 75th percentile! Lizzy is always at 5th percentile, so it's fun to have a "Michelin baby" as the doctor called her! Here is a new picture.

Too tired to eat

The picture speaks for itself.

Silly Lizzy

So yesterday, Lizzy wandered back toward the bedrooms and I could hear her playing with toys in her room, but then after a while I noticed it was awfully quiet. I went back there to see what she was up to. She was in my bedroom looking in my floor length mirror with a scarf wrapped around her neck. She startled in surprise with a guilty look on her face when I came in. I said, "What are you doing, babe?" She looked at me for a couple of seconds and then said "Make a mess!" I just laughed and laughed! She's so funny! I told her to clean it up, and she did. (She had pulled all the clothes out of one of our dresser drawers.) Here are the latest pictures of Lizzy and Rachel.

Congratulations Celia!!

My friend Celia had her baby!! She finally got her little boy, after having 4 girls in a row! They named him Joseph and he is so handsome! You can see pictures of Rachel's future husband on her blog: Celia's Blog

Also, I had my 6 week check up today, and I have recovered well. When Rachel was born (3 weeks early) my midwife was on vacation, so she missed out on the delivery. I brought Rachel to my appointment so she'd get to meet her.
