Happy Harry Potter Day

I don't know if any of you have noticed the Harry Potter Countdown that I have had on my Blog for the past year now. I am a big Harry Potter fan and today the countdown for the movie has finally finished! But with Mike gone firefighting down in the Oneida Narrows, I don't know when I will be able to see the movie. I have considered taking the kids to the drive-in but I am a little nervous to do that by myself. So someone will have to let me know how good it is while I anxiously wait for fire season to end!

Whew! I haven't had a spare second to blog in a long time. With Mike working fulltime and the kids being night owls I don't get much of a break to sit at the computer. But I wanted to post this cute picture of their smiles. Ian is pulling a funny face here but it is still cute.

Could they be related?

So I thought it was funny that we have pictures of both our kids at the same age with this weird hand position. Neither one was posed! As their mother, I still think they are cute even with the weird hand thing.

Happy Birthday Eliza

I just wanted to post this cute picture of 8 day old Eliza and 2 1/2 year old Ian. Aren't they cute together? I found an 8 day old picture of Ian and they look exactly alike! I couldn't believe it! So she may lose her beautiful black hair and turn blond just like him. I am getting lots of rest thanks to Jan and my mom, they have been huge helps with Ian. He is adjusting really well, he doesn't pay too much attention to her right now but does ask to hold her every now and then. He does get upset that I can't pick him up right now because of my stitches but other than that he has been an angel. Eliza sleeps more than Ian ever did, even as a newborn. She is eating well and gaining weight and only has a little bit of jaundice. We all love holding her and taking care of her.
