Easton's first photo shoot......








Here are some pictures of Easton. He is 6 weeks old in these pictures. Our busy schedules didn't allow us to get them done sooner. Most people think he looks a lot like Teagan, who looks a lot like Larry... so I am apparently out of the mix! Easton is doing so much better with his reflux. He is on soy formula and Zantac and it has been working wonderfully! Big sister Teagan continues to be mommy's biggest helper! She has to kiss "East" goodnight every night and he is the first thing she asks about every morning when I get her out of her crib. I hope they grow up to be best friends!

Big Birthday Valentine's Day Weekend......











We had a very busy weekend! Teagan and Dominic turned two on Valentine's Day! We celebrated Dominic's birthday on Saturday at Chris and Tracy's house, and had Teagan's family celebration at our house on Sunday. It was a lot of fun and we were all worn out by Sunday night! Dominic had a "Blue's Clues" theme going and Teagan had a Dora cake and Valentine's hearts decor. We had some surprise guests, my Aunt Colleen and Uncle Bill from New Jersey came to both parties and we were so happy to see them!
In other news, I took Teagan today for her 2 year old check-up at the pediatrician. She is a whopping 23.8 lbs which puts her in the 10th percentile for weight. She is 34 inches tall, which is the 50th percentile. I really don't know how she is so petite, she eats everything! She is growing though, and the doctor was not at all concerned. She is saying so many more words now, but by far, her most favorite word is "baby". Speaking of baby, Easton is doing very well. Amazingly, he is rolling over, and he's only 6 weeks old. The first time he did it we thought it was a fluke. But then he did it several times in a row, and continues to do it. I think the medication for his reflux is helping. He is resting more and is not as fussy. He is awake for longer periods of time now and it more alert. His orange spikey hair is the first thing everyone comments on when they meet him! We call him our "chicken little".

Welcome to our blog.....







Hello everyone and welcome to our new blog. I am creating this blog in an attempt to have one webiste where I can post everything about our family. When Teagan was born I used the Babysite. Now that Easton is here I am hoping this blog will be eaiser to update and keep everything together.
We have a fun weekend planned. Teagan and Dominic turn TWO. I am in shock and I can't believe it. Where did the time go??? Easton is 5 weeks old and doing well. He has reflux, but we are doing some different things to help him feel better. I am about half way through my maternity leave, and am really enjoying staying at home with the two kids. It is a lot of work, but everything is going really well. My mom comes over twice a week to help and both sets of grandparents help out on weekends and take the kids on fun outings.
