new pics

I took the girls to Portrait Innovations yesterday.  I wanted to get a good picture of Bethany in her dance costume, plus some new pics of Penny and some of the girls together.  They turned out pretty good!  Here are the spring pics!  And just so you know, there are almost 100 pictures, if you're wondering why it's taking so long to load!  :)

some updates

I have updated the at home and out & about albums and added a family reunion album.  Check out the new pics.

Penny started eating some rice cereal this week.  She loved it.  Much better first feeding than B's, though I think I tried too early with B!  Penny gets very excited when she sees me mixing up the cereal.  I figure we'll do this for at least another week (until she's 5 months) and then try our hand at some sweet veggies.  But, I'm in no hurry.  She seems pretty content to do this for a while.

B is amazing, as always.  She makes up stories and songs all the time.  We also have a daily dance recital (sometimes 2!).  I watched her learn to skip in dance class yesterday (sniff!).  And, I know this is so silly: I never get sentimental about anything.  But the other day I got her some new "undergarments" and as I was folding the laundry I noticed how big they were.  They aren't these cute little things anymore!  Of all the things...

We had a really fun time at the family reunion last weekend.  It really got me motivated to start that family tree, Matt.  The kids had a water gun fight, we at some good BBQ, had some cake...good stuff.  I can't wait till next year!
