black tie

Well this past weekend we were invited to a black tie party in Chicago by our friends Karen and Chris. It was so much fun, we got all dressed up and Grandma and Grandpa Laskey watched the little ones for us! So a night out with all adults was nice, we had a few drinks, good dinner and of course an awesome selection of desserts- there were a few different dessert stations including Eli's cheesecake and melting pot chocolate fountain. Here are a few pics from the night thanks to Karen.

wow! its been awhile

So it has been a long time since I have updated! Aaron is now over 6 months he had his appointment a couple weeks ago. He has maintained his weight in the 25% at 15lb 11oz and his height was 40% at 26 in. He is doing well and eating well! He is swaddle free and has been since that appointment but it did not come easy, poor Aaron had to get used to sleeping without it for a couple nights before bedtime came easy. So now Aaron and Erica are both down between 7-730 and it is nice to have out nights back! Though Erica has started a new trend of waking up at 6 am especially on the weekends! Aaron is sitting up and even getting on his knees wanting to crawl though we can wait on that for awhile.....Erica is taking a break from activities this month and we will most likely start swimming this summer. She is using more words these days but she loves to sing, we are not sure what she is singing but it is so cute, she sings to Aaron when he cries in the car sometimes. As for Jimmy and I we are learning how to get things done with two kids and it is getting somewhat easier thank goodness that we have eachother. I am still training for the triathlon one in June and Chicago in Aug. hopefully losing some of this babyweight. Here are some random pics.
