guilty as charged

yes, i missed a couple of days of blogging (as my sister keeps pointing out). shame on me. i have an excuse though! i was at the utah dental association convention on thursday and friday and boy, all i have to say is that i am so grateful that i don't have to work full time AND that i'm not a single mom. getting the kids up, everything packed, and everyone out the door by 7 for two days in a row was enough for me - and i had tyler helping! i have a HUGE new-found respect for working moms and single moms!!

grandma is so good to babysit for us while tyler and i work or run errands, and especially as we're out looking for a house. (oh yes, that time has come. talk about a roller coaster ride! more to come in later posts...) she's always taking pictures of the kids and sending them to us. this is from sometime last week.

see, look, karen! i put bows in reagan's hair...sometimes! hahaha.

update on us:

- austin is sick, kinda. well, he is, but we're not sure exactly what caused it. he got a fever the other day so i took him to the doctor and he either: 1) got strept throat and an accompanying ear infection, or 2) the ear infection from RSV in january never fully went away and is now back. he's on antibiotics (stronger ones than last time to kick this ear infection out) and probiotics (for his poor bumbum). poor guy. if i didn't hate poop before, i hate it even worse with antibiotics.

- he's getting closer to walking and is much closer than reagan.

- reagan loves roast, carrots, green beans, string cheese, blueberries, and clementines. austin loves roast, green beans, and anything SWEET - fruit, pudding, juice, etc.

- reagan loves to pull things out and then put them back in. classic examples: kleenex, clothes from her dresser, and items in the diaper bag.

- the nurse came for her "final" visit this last week and both kids are doing well. we decided to do one more visit at 14 months to make sure everything is a-okay. after that, we're done with nurse visits. crazy to think that she's been meeting with us for a full year!! i'm grateful for everything she has taught us.

- i added an extra shift and work and now work one saturday a month. this saturday is my first. i'm excited!

- tyler is doing super awesome at work and is loving frontrunner.

and there you have it! on to a happy (and hopefully warmer) march.

:)
