Milwaukee

Yesterday Ben and I headed down to Milwaukee to check out St. Marcus. We were able to hang out with some of the members and pastors as well as attend the Sunday night church service Ben would be in charge of. Ben and I had a great time. As you can imagine this call has been the most difficult to deliberate and we have still not decided after 5 weeks.

Our sweet Eliana read her brother Drew some naptime stories :)

Bright Eyes

It's not too often that Drew's eyes are open. (sorry about the red eye, didn't edit the pics)

Curious George

I never know who I'm going to find in Drew's swing or bouncy seat. That's usually where I find the missing blankets and burp rags too!

Poor Child

This is what happens when her grandma dresses her.

Playing

Eliana loves to lay next to Drew when he has tummy time.

She was showing him the cat and telling him that cats say "meow".
She just doesn't understand why he can't play with her.

Waiting

We got our new double jogging stroller, too bad it's still pouring down rain and it's still so cold.

1 Month

It's amazing how much one little person can change your life in four short weeks.

Daddy and his boy

A quick 15 minute session.

One Month Ago Today...

As Ben prepared to leave for his meeting tonight he reminded me that exactly one month ago I called him home from tonight's monthly meeting to tell him we were going to have our little Drew soon :) Has it really been that long?

Daddy Fun

My two peanuts

This has quickly become one of my favorites.

Talking..talking...talking

I'm not sure there will be a cell phone plan with enough minutes when she gets her own cell phone.

Coloring

Eliana loves to color and doodle while I'm feeding Drew. That's much better than the standing in front of me crying the way she used to! Being a big sister is hard work.

3 Weeks

Our little man was 3 weeks yesterday, St. Patty's Day. He likes to sooth himself with his hands.

Beautiful Days

We have had some really beautiful weather lately. I took the kids out for the first walk of the spring on Sunday and yesterday we went again. It's supposed to be 65 today, so I'm sure we'll go again. I never would have dreamed of doing anything physical like this 2 1/2 weeks after having Eliana. I can't believe how much better I feel this time around, don't get me wrong I'm still sleep deprived!

I just ordered the double jogging stroller today and I can't wait to get it.

When I asked her what she was drawing, she said it was a kangaroo, can't you tell?

Sunday Dress

Eliana loves getting dressed up for church. I'm not sure where she gets it from, it's definitely not from her tomboy mom.
