bumGenius


One of the big changes we have made this month is the switch from Huggies to bumGenius cloth diapers. I feel like we are on our way to becoming real Austin hippies!

We've liked the change so far, and Claire doesn't seem to mind not being wrapped up in plastic and tape. We also love the way her cute pouffy baby butt looks!

We're Having a BABY !!!


Can you believe it?! We're so excited to be adding to our family.

Baby Love is due January 10th, and we'll have a 3 year old, an almost 2 year old and a newborn! I don't know if life can get any crazier!

Gigi and Claire already have their "Big Sister" shirts to show off!

Toddler Sleeping Habits



And why did we bother to buy Gigi a bed??
Every night we play the "Let's put Gigi back in bed" game. :-)

Austin Stone Spring Family Reunion

No crawfish boil for us this year... yay! I just couldn't stand the thought of eating those slimy bugs. Echh! So instead we had yummy barbecue and a chili cookoff to energize us for all the baptisms. Of course, the only thing the girls would eat was the "enriched" bleached flour white bread. If they turn out ot be half as picky about food as I am, I will know that yes, I really did drive my mother crazy! The funniest part of the whole day was Gigi's reaction whenever someone was baptised. Everytime the crowd would applaud and celebrate, poor Gigi would get so scared by the noise that she would start to cry and want to hide in her Daddy's arms. Poor Daddy couldn't put her down...

Claire's First Birthday

Yes, it's true. Our sweet Claire turns one year old today. Tears. We had her birthday party this past Saturday with some of her friends (mostly Gigi's and our friends, but Claire doesn't know the difference yet).


We had the obligitory cake smashing time, and she did so much better than Gigi did at her first birthday. This girl LOVES her cake! Afterward we could tell that she had a little bit of a sugar high and then a crash! All in all, a great time was had by all.
