Have One on Me

I know, long time, no update. And now I'm up at 4:50 in the morning with nothing better to do. It's hard to find time to update this thing sometimes. It is also hard to get any good photos/video in the winter. I'm so tired of "playroom" baby pics. These kids need some fresh air.

One thing we get often (oddly) is the question, "are they identical?" Of course we laugh at this considering anatomically they are quite different. But as I'm going through these photos I catch myself confusing the two.

Here is an example. The photo below shows them side by side in about the same pose.


They do look very much a like. And then go to the second photo. Whenever Riley is in one of Jack's outfits, I mistake her for Jack.

And now, do yourself a favor and listen:

Bye, Bye...

Riley said what I consider to be her first word today. When I left for work today she waved and said "bye."

18 Months Old Today!

Kids turn 1.5 years old today. Riley is 20 lbs. Jack is 23 lbs. Both are making some good progress w/ speech and are making new sounds all the time. Riley is working on her D sounds lately. Our latest tricks include spinning in circles and imitating monkeys.

Photos

I really don't mean to post more photos of Riley than Jack, but for some reason I seem to get more interesting photos of her lately. Jack is way overdue for a photo shoot. Also, the one photo below of Riley with a bow in her hair reminds me of how my brother Jason looked when he was her age. Freaky.
