Catching up

Ok, so obviously my blogging resolutions didn't stick, but my camera kept clicking! So, here's the past few weeks in a nutshell...
A few weeks ago, Ilana was in and out of fevers and runny noses. Poor thing, it was either this...
or this...
or this for a whole week.
(And poor thing, she was just trying to stay sane and there I was snapping pictures.) Don't worry, she was much happier after a dose of infant Tylenol.

Moses turned 3 years old!! For his birthday I took him on a "birthday walk." I gave him no time limit, tugged his leash as few times as possible, and let him sniff as much as he wanted. He had such a blast. I think we were gone for about an hour and this was his face when we got back...
He was a HAPPY doggy!!

Over Valentine's Day weekend we flew up to Pittsburgh for the annual Jubilee conference. By the end of the trip Ilana's new nickname was "Super Trooper." She did amazing, despite throwing her schedule completely out of whack. Oh and yes, she now drinks from a sippy cup, all by herself, just like a big girl. This is us at the airport, drinking as much of our fluids as we could right before we went through security...

We gave Ilana her Valentine's cards to read, until she started eating them. Then she screamed when we took them away (she's become quite a drama queen lately).

I think that's it! You're officially caught up...again. We're falling more and more in love with Ilana every day now. She's all baby these days, babbling like crazy, almost crawling forward, pulling up on everything (she can only get to her knees, but she still practices every day), eating really well and sleeping all the way through the night. We're LOVING it!!
