Makenzie's painting

I'm so glad that I got my super-talented friend, Jana, to make this painting of Makenzie before she left for school in Utah. We love it! Jana is not only a talented painter but also does amazing photography. She did some family pictures for us - you can see a few of them on her website: janalaurene.blogspot.com. Thanks so much again Jana for your hard work! We'll miss you.

photography

My friend, Cheri, just taught me how to use my photoshop to edit photos. I've been experimenting a little bit and here is one of my favorite pictures. Isn't she such a doll?? She reminds me of how cute girls are and why I want another one someday.

4 months old and happy about it

Austin just turned 4 months old. He weighs 15 pounds and is growing like crazy! I'm always amazed at how fast they grow the first year. He is very strong and always wants to be standing or sitting up. He is extremely smiley- especially in the morning.



Austin is currently amazed with his hands and what he can do with them. He is trying to grab everything and stuff it in his mouth. And he drools like none other as you can see in the next picture.



Makenze wanted some pictures of her taken since I was taking pictures of Austin. She is so tall now. Here she is with one of her new favorite toys- BOLT.

Her expression in this picture cracks me up. She is always making us laugh.


Austin does like his saucer but only for a little while at a time. He mostly wants to be held and toted around.



Tyler and Austin are already great friends.
I hope they grow up to be best buds.

Yesterday we started feeding Austin rice cereal. He LOVED it. We can't feed it to him fast enough.
