Today we did a reshoot of Landen at Donna's house. We had done it a couple weeks ago, and in about 5 minutes she captured both boys, but that was all the time we got, I was happy with the pictures, but Landen's were so so.
Today we got some more time, and although it took longer to get him to smile, I think we got some good ones. I also jumped in for one with the boys for one of all of us. I was just wearing a tank, and none of us matched, but I hope it comes out cute.
I really can't believe how fast my boys are growing. Having two seems to make time go by so much faster. No more sitting around gazing at the little ones, trying to memorize every moment. I feel like I am so busy, always something to do, that I am rarely sitting, just enjoying them.
Logan will be 10 months in a couple days and is about 21-22 lbs I think. I don't remember perfectly, but I think he's a little bigger than his brother at this age but not by much. I'd have to dig out my chart. LOL Mom brain. Logan is taking steps now, eating lots of solids- he LOVES to eat, and just a sweet easy going baby.
Landen is...I dunno, 34-35 lbs now. He has a skinny little waist. I have some 2t jeans on him today for the picture, that kept falling down, but almost a little short. He is such a boy, climbing, running, torturing anything he can (bugs, brother, dog, ect). His "listening ears" aren't quite up to par lately, and sometimes I feel like I am saying things over and over and over. He's a good boy though. Very smart, and is into firemen, trains, and newly into dinosaurs, although I am not sure how long that will hang on.
I am just so ready to leave Florida. I am making some great friends here, that makes me not want to leave, but its time. I have been so set on it for a while now, that hopefully something will happen soon. We will rent, hopefully find a house with a backyard, until we get to know the area. Eventually, hopefully we can buy again. I am really looking forward to the mountains, fall, with its changing leaves, winter, with the snow, and spring with so many gorgeous blooming flowers. In FL the only season we really get is summer, and its hot and intense. Just now we are getting a forecast that the weather will be going below a high of 90. Just in time for October. Then as it cools off, we can poor imitation seasons. The leaves turn brown, but never colorful, it gets cold, but usually not much lower than 50 during the day, and thats a cold day, no snow, and then finally comes spring, and its just green. Not many flowers.
Matt has been having eye problems, bleeding in his eyes, and on Friday, he got a shot in his eye that should help. He should find out in a couple weeks if he needs more. YUCK. But, he's happy at his new job, and we are both getting ready for some big changes.
Jeff and Maryann, Matt's parents just sold their house, and will be moving to FL. They are unsure of their final destination, might buy in FL, although they don't want to stay here.
I am looking forward to having them nearby for the kids though. :)
And that's all for now. :)
