Pictures!

An adventurous outing we had today. For some insane reason I thought it would work well to get both of the girls pictures done at once, Brie's 2 year and Sophie's 3 month. Insanity is what it was. Brie kept running out of the room, refused to sit where we put her, and Sophie was hungry. All of this led to an exhausting morning. We did manage to get a few good shots of the two girls, alone and together but it was far from fun. Next time daddy will be invited along to join the chaos.

Not much else is new so I will just leave you with some new pictures of the girls.

Sophie is developing her own little personality and she loves to smile!

Brie on the other hand will make faces at the camera and refuse to smile

And a day would not be complete without a tantrum or two!

Busy times in the Myers household

Things have been pretty busy the last few weeks with Marcus and I both back to work full time. We are both realizing how nice it was to be home and how easy it was to get things done around the house with one on one care for the girls. Now with us each of us home alone with the two girls things are much more difficult. Simple tasks like unloading the dishwasher and taking a shower have become balancing acts.

The girls seem to be getting along well with Jenna, our nanny. Brie enjoys playing with her and is eating well and has been taking naps for her. All of this is a welcome change from a few months ago when we couldn't leave her with anyone but Nanna because she would not eat or sleep for them. She has grown up quite a bit since Sophie's birth. We no longer give her a bottle for naps and nighttime and she goes down for both without a fight. Currently she will fall asleep in her crib with us sitting in her chair. Soon we will transition to putting her down and leaving the room.

The girls are also both growing. Sophie is almost 10 and a half pounds and some of her 0-3 month clothes are getting too short. She is much more alert and smiles all the time. She still sleeps alot during the day and is up often at night to eat, but as long as she is happy and growing who needs sleep!!! Brie also seems to be getting bigger. She is now 22 lbs and finally into 18 month clothes. Some are a little long on her and adjustable waists are a necessity, but the 12 month stuff was way too short.
