Austin turns 2!

Back from a long hiatus from the blog. Sorry, we have just been far too busy the last 6 months! The scary part about being busy is that time flies even faster. I have suddenly been hit by the realization that I no longer have babies anymore. Maybe you have all seen it happen gradually, but for me it is somewhat of a shock. I am slowly coming to terms with getting rid of all of our baby stuff, which is quite an emotional task for an extreme pack-rat like myself.

Anyhow, today Austin turned 2 years old. Hard to believe. He's a big boy now, although he is much smaller physically than Tristan was at this age. His strong personality makes up for his size though. Much more rebellious and devious...and dramatic...oh, the drama! Gotta love it.

The boys get along fairly well these days, at least for a few minutes at a time :) They are actually able to converse with each other now, which is quite amusing. Tristan is very protective of his little brother. We are very fortunate to have had them so close in age.

Life is good. Today was a beautiful spring day. Hoping to start planting our vegetable garden soon.

Wow, candles are cool!

What happened to all the strawberries???

The strawberries are in my belly, of course!
