Here are those pictures of...

the day the two coyotes walked through our yard.

Pumpkin Patch Adventures

We went to the Suavie Island Pumpkin patch a few weeks ago with Amelia and Elaina. Here is the result!

Pictures!

Here are a few photos from when Elaina was 14 days old. They were taken by Lori Nordstrom a professional photographer. Elaina was her model.

(this one was from Heidi Lawson)

Go Rangers!

Elaina helped Daddy cheer on the Rangers! So far, they're 2-0 against Tampa!

Happy One Month!

Elaina turned one month old today! I can't believe how quickly one month went! She's now over 8 pounds, growing out of her newborn clothes... and is officially in size 1 diapers. That went so fast! She's smiling a lot... now if I can get her to sleep more during the night...

Here are a few pictures:

Elaina at two weeks.

Playing outside

Amelia and mommy got some special alone time last week. We went for a walk togrther and then came home and played with sidewalk chalk! Mommy even taught Amelia how to play hopscotch!

A little late

These pictures were taken the day... actually hours... before Elaina was born. It took awhile to post it... but I'm sure you know... we've been sort of busy!

We took Amelia to the Oregon Zoo on Sunday, August 29. She got to see a TON of animals and enjoyed our outing immensely.

Checking out the sea otters!
