Already a month old...

Wyatt is already a month old... he's a maniac when he eats and has gained a lot of weight... so he's really starting to fill out. Britt says, "the fatter the better..." Ettoile gets cuter every day and is learning her colors... we aren't pushing the potty training much but we are getting her used to sitting on her potty... She gets 1 recees pieces every time she sits on it and sometimes she'll go and sometimes not... But her personality comes out more and more every day and she always makes us laugh. Enjoy some pics of 1 month old Wyatt and Ettoile. (Disclaimer on Ettoile and the bottle picture: Ettoile has not had a bottle since 10 months but she got a hold of Wyatt's and must have decided to try it for old times sake... needless to say, she spit formula all over herself and the floor. I just didnt want people thinking we still give our child a bottle after one year.)

Twins baby blessings...

My parents came out to the mid-west to help us out while Britt was recovering from her c-section and while they were out here we had a twin baby blessing outside at the Durnfords home. Jason and I have always done everything together; born together, bath time together (disclaimer: only for the first few years of life), school, etc. etc. So why not bless our new babies together. It was really nice and the experience was extremely nice to have it at home with just family. So here are some pics of the blessing... Preston and Ettoile had a great time together and decided the garden box was more fun than the blessing. We also wanted to say a great big public THANK YOU to Mom and Dad for coming out and helping us while Britt recovers. It means more than you will ever know!

McCain Rally

Britt and I went to the McCain Rally in La Crosse this morning. Baby Wyatt went along too since he is also an avid McCain supporter. Ettoile decided to go to daycare because she is leaning more towards Obama... as long as it's an educated decision than I guess I'm OK with her choice. Britt, as many know is a democrat but is leaning more towards McCain. I, as most know, am a declared republican since I most closely relate with the republican party and ideals but I am proud to say that I am a bi-partisan voter, voting for whomever I feel represents me as an american.

The other day when I had mentioned to a coworker that I was going to attend the rally today, her response was, "Oh... I'm sorry." My response was, "Oh... I don't apologize for making well educated and rational choices for me and my family." I hate ignorance and rude people. I am fine with whoever supports Obama, in fact I have great respect for the man. I'm sure that he would do great as the next president, but I think that McCain will do much better and lead our country to a better standing than Obama ever could. If you support Obama, good for you and I am happy for your choice, AS LONG AS you have made an educated one. BUT, if you really dont know what either stands for or the difference between the two platforms than shame on you for jumping on the trendy bandwagon. Anyways, I guess thats all I have to say about politics. Heres a few pics from the rally and a few more from the devilishly handsome young man...
