Zach: 6 months old

Prior to blogging, I kept a message board to keep up with friends and family through pregnancy and mommyhood.  I'm working on bringing those posts to this blog. 











My baby... he is such a happy and special guy. Rarely cranky. Rarely cries. Sleeps and eats well. He's a dream. He's the kind of baby you would order from a catalog if such a thing existed. He is easy to please and loves to smile and laugh. He is laid back and so undemanding. I don't know what I've done to be so blessed with such a unique child. 

Zachary Robert- Happy 1/2 Birthday!!

You have brought so much joy to our home, to our family. You have a special smile and laugh for your sister- and that relationship between the two of you is even more inexplicable than trying to describe the love I feel for my children. Everyone told me that adding a child didn't subtract or divide the love- it mulitplied it. You have definitely proven that. You have helped our family feel complete. Teagan taught us love and you have taught us joy.

Teagan's Trip to the Dentist

Prior to blogging, I kept a message board to keep up with friends and family through pregnancy and mommyhood.  I'm working on bringing those posts to this blog. 

Teagan had her visit dentist visit today! I was so proud of her- she did AWESOME!

We had been reading Dora's Trip to the Dentist and we've ben really talking up the dentist thing. She liked seeing all the things explained in the book in real life right in front of her. 

She wanted to go first. No hesitation. Hopped in the chair, listened to everything the hygienist told her about the instruments and stuff. Got to wear sunglasses (so the light wouldn't get in her eyes). Wore the bib. Got her teeth "counted." The hygienist scraped, poked, polished, and flossed. The dentist poked, pulled, and said she looked good! Said she has excellent spacing. Teagan followed every bit of direction given to her and never cried or whined. I was so impressed with my girl!!
