Finding Our New Normal

Hi, everyone!

Wow!  Life with two children is quite the challenge, but we’re hanging in there & finding our new normal.  It’s pretty cool knowing our family is complete now.  Yes—two children are enough for us! :)

Both Ariel & Dylan are doing well.  Ariel amazes us every day with her language skills, potty training success, & little quirks that make her unique. 

Dylan is definitely a bigger baby than Ariel was.  At his two month check up, he was in the 90% for weight at 13lb 11oz, and in the 75% for length at 23.5 inches long!  He has started smiling & making “conversation” with coos & other cute little sounds.  He’s also starting to notice his hands & feet more and much more alert during waking hours.

We started his tree photos too like we did for Ariel, so here are the first few in the line up.  The next one will be at his first birthday.

 

The weather has been strange lately with nice days in the low 60’s & then snow/hail the next day.  It will be nice when we have the consistent warm weather & can get out of the house more. 

 

We had a visit from the Sands family--my Dad, stepmom, brother, sister & new nephew, Xander, for a few days in March.  It was great seeing them, and Ariel really enjoyed meeting her cousin.  Here are a few photos from their visit:

Patrice & Tom (David’s sister & her boyfriend) also visited last month.  It was nice catching up with them, and we can’t wait to be able to visit them in San Diego one day when the kids are older. ;)  Here are some photos from their visit:

We are looking forward to warmer weather, Easter & our anniversary this month.  Hope you’re all doing well!

 

Lots of love,

Tammy, David, Ariel & Dylan
