so sorry it's been a million years, but things have been quite busy around here with friends getting married and plays at church and 2 kids and all.

things are going well. lucas turned 3 months old yesterday so i consider us officially out of the newborn woods :). he's already started to wear some 3-6 month clothes... this little man's a beast. he's smiling, giggling, rolling, and generally quite plump and rolly-polly. he's finally taking a bottle (that was a battle) and is sleeping pretty much through the night. he'll go from about 10pm to 6am, then go back to sleep after another feeding, on average.

miss rachel pamela is also doing great and is just about the best big sister any little boy could ever want. she's very protective and always tries to make him feel better when he cries. she also loves to bonk heads with him... i guess she's trying to show him how to be a big, rugged man. she's also the potty champion. she's got this big girl thing down (except for when she doesn't sit back far enough on the potty seat and pees all over her pants... she gets really upset at this and let's everyone we see know that she had an "accident" even though since her little butt was on the potty i don't consider it an accident. i consider it a "good try.")

it's late now and i'm sure i'm not making any sense. i just thought a short update was in order. ps--it's my birthday tomorrow! the big 2-6. does that make me officially almost 30? THAT is weird.

Happy Birthday, Old Roomie!! Thanks for the update! Ben is giving us about an 8 hour stretch, too. I am so happy that things are going so well.

I bet you are so happy to have Lucas taking a bottle now. That can be pretty demanding if he doesn't give you a break nursing.

nope...it doesn't make you almost 30! you have a long time to go. I will be two years older than you next week....so i guess i should ask that question.

Happy Birthday, and I don't want to hear another "Almost 30" comment until you're at LEAST 28. Punk face!
