We are doing well.
Sydney is 4 months now and Elijah is 2. We are settling into our house pretty well now. I am working on the garage currently, making it an awesome place to work on projects and to stay organized. I am wiring the house for ethernet shortly as well and I am super excited for that. Audrey is doing a great job taking care of the house, kids and dogs, although it is a crazy task.
I posted a new video on our youtube site so if your feeling it:

Before and after shots of Elijah's Haircut
We went to the snip-it barber, the one for kids, because we knew Elijah would probably have a problem with someone messing around with his hair. We were right. He was fine until the trimming around the ears, then the tears started flowing. He had a lollipop, and I think that helped a lot, plus the girl was awesome at cutting kids' hair, and she was quick!
Elijah asked me not to post the sad pictures of him... I respect his wishes.
Audrey went to the Dr to get checked up with the new baby. There is only a month left!!!
Elijah doesn't do well in the Dr Office, because he is afraid of the needles...even though he is not the one that has to get checked up. He knows it is a Dr.s office and constantly signs for outside.
So this visit, I dropped Mommy off at the Dr. and we went around the corner to feed the ducks some old bread. Here is some footage. The white ducks have no fear...and Elijah has a great arm for being 20 months.
These are some pics from this weekend.
The first one is from Firday when I allowed Elijah to feel what it is like to be this awesome..
The second is from when we went to watch Audrey do her 5K, and we played at the park. He is on the dock here.
The third is waiting on the tree stump for mommy to come around, and here she came in picture
Fourth..here she is walking to the finish!!
The following video was taken before out family reunion a couple weeks ago.. It shows what a great share-er Elijah is... and some fun animal noises.
We had a beach day this weekend, and it was beautiful! Here are some pics*
Elijah had a good time playing in the sand, climbing on the rails, chasing the birds and learning about sand fleas**.
*All pictures were taken by Audrey.
**Sand flea learnin was issued by Brian
Check out the other pics HERE
So when you ask Elijah "what do the cows say?" He purses his lips and says "meewwww". Thanks Aunt Courtney. It is so cute, I try to ask him more, but that is the only one he can do at this point.
When we look at his book full of food, I say "point to the Banana", he proudly shows me which one it is. Man, I love it when kids learn stuff. It makes it all worth while.
Again, pictures are coming soon, this weekend we are working on the floor in the living room, dining room, hallway and kitchen. Keep your fingers crossed we get it done!!
We are still working on fixing up the house. It is coming along, and when we feel like we are still very far off from being done, we look around and realize we are actually almost done. We will post new pictures after this coming weekend, when hopefully, we will get most of the rest of the flooring done...
We had a great Easter, Debbie and Shane were down for the weekend and it was nice to see them. Elijah got a basket with wiffle balls in it and some rubber duckies, which he loves for taking baths with. I also included a couple eggs with goldfish in them. He loved that.
Tomorrow Brian and I will have been married for 3 years!! It went by so fast. Its so cliche, but life really does go by fast, and its hard to slow down and enjoy life, but I hope that we will be able to do that when this house stuff is finally done.
If Brian doesn't mind, I am going to start posting at least once a week while Elijah naps.
Everyone is doing well. We are still so busy with house remodeling. The floors are going as fast as possible even though it is snail pace. With Brian's work and Elijah keeping me running, the nights are just not long enough to do anything..
When we are finished, we will post many pictures, and I will start taking more of Elijah and my day trips to the park, beach, etc.

We have a new photo site that we are putting our photos on. It is free and unlimited. Also there are neat photobooks you can make on the website. It is easy to upload pictures to it as well!!!
So far we have added our New England pics and I am adding the Halloween pics now. I will catch the pics up..soon.
We are back, with a little prettying up with the blog.
Updates. . in a quick nutshell:
Elijah: Crawling very well, eating some baby food ( only really likes Carrots ), standing up on his own and walking with the push carts. He is 7.5 months old and weighs about 20lbs...big boy!!
Audrey: Feeling a little sick right now getting over a cold.. But she is looking great!! she has been exercising everyday and she cut her hair short! She does well in her new role staying home with the baby and taking care of both of us. She is amazing.

Dogs: They are having fun in the backyard a lot. We do not spend enough time with them, but that will pass soon. Weezer's birthday was this past week. Happy Birthday Buddy!!
Brian: Work is going well, although it is busy now that we lost a couple people. I have been working out in the mornings at a gym next to work. It is pretty nice, I feel great when I go. Audrey and I have a piano now, o we have been practicing that. I think we are doing well with it.
He is doing well and so is Audrey. It is hard to really get motivated at work, but I am trying. Audrey made some amazing chicken pot pie today and samosas yesterday!!!
She is such a great Wifey.
Audrey took this photo today so I wanted to share it. He is so photogenic.
YAYYY..
2 week vacation is OVER now.
Happy Birthday to me.. last Tuesday..We went to my Mom's house and ate pizza made by Shane and Mom, It was excellent. Then we came to my house for cake with Sarah, Dave and Jenny, Audrey's Parents, Courtney and Chris and Shane and Mom..
This was my card from Sarah and Brin that they made.. it is clever
This is our new hd antenna, this picks up about 15 hd channels, without interruptions like bad signal with my old antenna.
This is my new RC helicopter from Sarah and Brin.. it is awesome for indoor teasings of the dogs..
My New Nikon D40 Digital SLR CAMERA!! Dave and Jenny, Audrey's Parents, Courtney and Chris and Shane and Mom pitched in on this Camera for me to take awesome pics of the baby and everything else.. I have easily taken 1000 pics on it so far.. It is Awesome!
The possibilities are ENDLESS

He loves having me change his diapers because he is constantly soiling them, like a dog that needs to mark everything, as soon as a new diaper goes on, it is dirty.. We are pros at diapering now though so I am going into business and make lots of money changing diapers, I think there is a market somewhere for it.
He only woke up 2 times last night for feeding and changing so we are happy about that.. He is eating so good!!
Oh and we LOVE the fuzzi bunz cloth diaper, we have one and it is my fav... it fits so well..
We posted more pics so check them out..
we are going to take a walk with him now.
