Accidental Photography

Cole got this new camera for Christmas:


It's digital and the pictures can be uploaded to the computer. Turns out Cole is quite the creative photographer. Check out some of his "masterpieces."

Reid's 2 month stats

We visited the dr. today for Reid's 2 month well visit. He is doing great! He's 11lbs. 9 oz. (50th percentile), 23.5 inches long (75%), and his head measured 40cm. (50%). He got 2 shots and only cried a tiny bit. He's such a tough guy!

This weekend we are tackling potty training for Cole. The plan is to go cold turkey starting Saturday morning...no more diapers, with the exception of Pull-Ups for sleeping. I'll update soon and let you know how it goes! Wish us luck!

I don't have any new pictures to post, but I will take some soon!

Christmas makes Reid sleepy!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!

A Very Snowy Day (well 2 actually)

We got A LOT of snow! I would guess around 2 feet, but it's hard to say with the drifts. Cole was very excited to go out and play, but Brien had to shovel a path first because the snow was up around his chest! Reid was not a big fan of his snow suit or the snow.

Making Christmas cookies with Daddy

Yes, we stayed in our pj's all day Saturday!

The view from inside the house. It snowed several hours past the time this picture was taken!

Diapers...check, Wipes...check, Sleepless Nights...not so much!

I'm probably jinxing us by writing this, but little Reid is quite a sleeper! Last night he slept 8pm - 4am, ate then slept until 8am!!! We've had quite a few nights like this and some where he wakes around 1am also. Did I mention this was in his crib in his own room? I am amazed at this little one. If you recall Cole was just about the opposite on that, not sleeping through the night until he was 7 months and with lots of sleep training.

We also had Reid's 1 month appointment on Tuesday. He weighed in at 9 lbs 14.5 oz. and was 21.5 inches long. 50% for both.

And just for fun, a few pictures:

Happy Halloween!

As you can see he promptly smeared his black nose all over (including on my shirt - see below).
