Pictures

I am very sorry for being gone for so long. I have not felt well since lets say the end of Jan and when I have down time I do just that lay down.

The girls are growing like weeds. We took a great trip to Colorado over Spring Break, the weather was beautiful. We enjoyed Grandma and Grandpa a ton, at least Lydia did, Hannah is a hard one to figure out when we travel. She is SUCH a home body and routine girl that she doesn't do well out of her surrondings. At home she is just more comfortable I guess. I hope she grows out of this cause her mommy likes to travel.

Hope you enjoyed the photos, I hope to be back sooner than later.

Vidoe I promised. Photos to those you want to see.

Walking

My babies

Here are some photos of the girls.

Hannah passed her Soy Challenge with flying colors and is now doing about 2 bottles soy milk and 2 of her elemental formula and we will get her to all soy after this dang cold leaves her alone. Pretty sure it is the fourth one in two months. Oh she is starting to walk. I will post a video.

Lydia is doing great. We bought her two packets of cardstock and she has been decorating the house with her drawing for the past two days.

She finally got in and all smiles
Ready for bath her favorite part of the day!

Lydia's Dance Recital

This last Wednesday Lydia has her 1st dance recital, she danced to the Nutcracker and just had a blast. Getting ready to go look at lights!

Hannah's 1st Birthday

_We celebrated Hannah's 1st birthday in style. We had a small gathering of her friends and had cupcakes. I made for the 1st time egg, dairy, soy free cupcakes and they turned out pretty good. She figured out how to open her presents pretty quickly and she had a blast.
The past year has really flown by. The first 5 months of her life were very hard and I never thought we would make it through, but we did. She did and we did and so did Lydia. I am very thankful to Dr. Thompson for taking me serious and testing her for allergies and getting us on the right track. I felt like I was one of those Mom's that no one took serious but I new my baby had something wrong and once it was fixed she was a whole new kid. I guess the one thing I learned the most this past year is ALWAYS follow your gut instinct mom's are always right. Hannah has turned into an amazing busy little baby girl. She just LOVES her big sister, stuffed animals and destroying anything. She is constantly moving or doing something, never sitting still. She is still crawling but I don't think walking is too far in the future. She is a very serious baby as well, smiles seldom but when she does it lights up the room. She has the cutest little laugh ever. We have been truly blessed with the birth of this little girl and have learned just how strong we are and how fortunate we are to have our family and friends who made this year so much easier. On that note we will be taking donations to replace our furniture and carpets as this little girl has dosed them with her stomach contents a few hundred times!! :)

Lydia's Christmas Program

Here is a quick video of Lydia's preschool program. Last year she just stood there, this year she participated and had a lot of fun.
