So happy to have the computer back! It's amazing how much I missed that thing. I was watching the news this morning about the fires in California and they were talking to a family who lost everything and the news anchor asked what they were able to grab and I got to thinking - if I had a split second to grab a few things what would they be...well obviously your family, the pets, and I would have to say my wedding album, the girls baby books and this computer. This computer houses every single picture we have taken the past few years, including both girls births. So, that is what I would take....although I'm sure if I was in that horrible situation who knows that I would grab. As long as you have your family - that's all that really matters.
The weather has officially turned - Sunday was beautiful and my mom and I walked around Reeds Lake - (4.2 miles) it felt good to get out and exercise! Speaking of exercise I lost another 2 1/2 lbs at weight watchers this past week!! SO EXCITED! It really works and the food I have been cooking has been just awesome! If you need to drop any weight I was highly recommend WW - it really works and you know - it is super easy. I still get to eat my ice cream every night and I can drink coffee and diet coke - which is essential at the moment!

Girls are doing very well. Brooklyn's results from her ultrasound came back and everything is perfectly fine with her spine...yeah! A HUGE sigh of relief! She is continuing to grow, getting biger and bigger - gaining the weight that she should. She continues to sleep well at night - which we are very thankful for! She is 6 weeks old today - can't believe it. She still has tons of black hair and it may be thinning a bit but she still has a lot of it!

Olivia is doing well too - she is little Miss Personality! A few weeks back we had her first modeling shoot. If I have not mentioned this before it is only because I do not want to be one of "those" moms. A few months ago we submitted her photos to a local modeling agency (at the suggestion of some family) and she was "accepted" into the agency. We went three weeks ago to get her head shots taken for the 2007-2008 "BOOK" that is put out. I checked the agency out and they are on the up and up and have such clients as Meijer, Gerber, Amway, etc. In fact while we were there getting Olivia's pictures taken - the little boy that was going to be photographed after Olivia was recently in a Helen DeVos Children's Hospital campaign - so the kids do get work. And - if nothing pans out it will be cool to show her the book someday! She is getting another tooth and is walking around. She is getting too big!!

Olivia (almost 14 months) and Brooklyn (6 weeks) - I think getting a pictures of these two will be a difficult task
