Walking Bella

We have started LJ's dog-walking training! He loves it (although rocks are very distracting and exciting to collect), and Bella is pretty patient with him overall!

Ellie's 2 Week Well-Check

Image
 Ellie is two weeks today!! And when I took her clothes off in the morning for her two week appointment, I was surprised to find her umbilical cord was gone!!! Yay (and finally!)! Although I still have no idea where it went (gross!). I am thinking maybe it fell off when I changed her diaper in the middle of the night - and maybe the dogs found it (gross again!). But at least it's gone!! Excited to start giving better baths, any outfit, etc without having to worry about the cord! Overall, we had a very positive 2 week appointment! Dr. Hargrave said she seems to be doing very well, looks very alert (she was awake during the entire appointment!), and is even on the advanced side of the number of expressions she makes (maybe she will be an early smiler!). The only mild concern was that she had not gained her birth weight back yet. BUT the doctor said not to worry yet since she seems to be happy and doing well otherwise, and we will talk more at her 1 month well check. She h...

Evan's first steps

Evan took his first steps on September 18- just after his 13 month bday!! In the last 2 weeks, we have seen up to 10 steps in a row- but he is still not in a big hurry to walk alone!  He want's to walk all over the house- all over every where- but he really wants to hold at least one hand while he is doing it! As soon as you let go, he drops down to floor.  I have tried tricking him and getting him to hold a marker or something else instead of my finger, but it really doesn't work very well- he can tell when I let go, and then he just drops! He does love walking though... he is so happy when he takes steps and loves a big hug when he gets somewhere! I expect he will take off very soon! LJ took his first single steps a little sooner (right before his 1st bday), but he didn't really walk around until after he was 14 months. We will see how quickly Evan gets there!! Here is the first video I have gotten (I am always too busy cheering and catching to get it on video!).....

The pool project

Image
During the summer, we realized our pool was losing more water than it should on a daily basis. We got a leak detection company out to the house, and sure enough, we had leaks in the hot tube and in all the plumbing pipes leading to the pool house.  A significant amount of work would be needed to get everything fixed, and the pool would need to be drained for a few weeks to do it. We scheduled the repairs to be done mid-October. Then the night before LJ's birthday (and thankfully after his party on the 12th), Austin got a huge rainstorm. Our house got around 12 inches of rain in under 10 hours- and our pool looked more like a swamp when it was over :( It seems all the dirt from the hill just washed right into our pool.  There is a drain in the area below that was clogged by leaves and dirt, but as soon as we move them, it drains within 2 minutes! We now know that several other drains have been covered with dirt, and this is the cause of all the flooding. While this was ...
