Update on Erin and Connor - they're big kids now!
I wanted to post a little update and a few photos. The kids will be 15 months on the 25th. They're both walking, chatting up a storm, dancing, and interacting with each other often. They LOVE the park and to be outside in general. I can't believe that they're so big. They are taking a music and movement class once a week and swimming twice a week. We have talked about the roly poly class, beginning gymnastics for babies, but don't want to overwhelm them! One thing's for sure, the LOVE the pool!
Erin is 32" tall and weighs 26 pounds. Connor is also 32" tall and is 29 pounds. The eat everything, and I do mean everything, with the occasional disdain for things that they liked the day before. They are not drinking cows milk, but rather almond milk, although they do eat yogurt, cheese and kefir that are made from organic cows milks. They LOVE fish, I think even more than I do, and blueberry waffles could be on their plates 3 times a day if they had it their way. I'm so fortunate to have such good eaters. When we started feeding them the same things that we ate at about 11 months, it seems to have broadened their palates for the things that my BIL can't get his 2.5 yr old to eat, which makes ma thrilled. I'm not going super excited yet, I know that this can change overnight.
Roseola hits my house for the 2nd time in a week! Yep, although it's not a huge deal, I just can't believe how whatever one gets, the other does too... making life kind of nuts around here sometimes. We had Norovirus in January after a trip to Mexico, but that went away with swimming success after about 4 weeks and many times of passing it between my house and my nanny's house. But now that we look back, and even both our doctor and their pediatrician suspect, it may have been none other than the swine flu in it's early stages, but who will ever know for sure. THAT WAS FUN!
Anyway, I hope that every thing is going well with all of you - TTC-ers, pregnant ladies, and those, who like myself, like to pop in and check on how everyone doing from time to time. I can honestly say, I couldn't be any happier than I am right now!

These first photos are from their new portfolio. The last ones are from Easter and just one random night...
