Lately

Elia is the happiest baby- so unlike Adalei as a baby- lovely!




What we have been up to....
Giving Elia rice cereal for the first time....didn't love it...

Elia figuring out how to get toys in hand and to mouth....
so cute all wet...
what happens the second Daddy comes home...
What happens when I leave Adalei to her own devices...


"the fort in the rainforest"...


Loving Grandpa Schenk...
playing after the baby blessing. This is a favorite game in which Elia "chases" Adalei...

Adalei flying with Grandpa Schenk...He puts a towel under her arms and swings her around!
The blessing of Elia...
All the guys who were able to be there for the blessing...Adam, Grandpa, Uncle Zane, Loni

Eli's favorite position...facing out...
hanging out...

Photo Shoot

We finally got around to taking some pictures of the girls!
I had been dreading doing it since we decided to try to do it ourselves since we are still poor students and take them with Adalei was torture. They aren't on the best camera, but a little cropping and red eye reduction and I think they turned out fine! Besides, I think they are beautiful no matter what! Except when they are screaming...not sleeping...having diarrhea... :)
