First family photos of 2010






I love family photos, I never thought I would be so into them. I find as time goes by faster then ever and Aleksandra keeps getting bigger and bigger I find that family pictures are now a necessity every 6 months. Everyone who has kids know how fast they change and in my mind I would totally justify doing family pictures ever 2 months if I could. I just want these memories to last and last forever. So to me it's totally worth budgeting in family pictures twice a year. And plus my parents really never did family pictures a whole lot and that has always been a goal of mine.

Well Aleksandra is now 9 1/2 months and keeps me busy 24/7. She is 16.1 pounds and eating more and more every day. She loves solids and can't seem to get enough of them. Every since we started solids 2 1/2 months ago she will take any form of them. Her newest favorites is peas and corn not purred but whole. She is putting those new teeth to good use. We have actually had to not do so many solids because she started to ween herself off of breast milk. So the doctor said cut back to one meal a day for solids and keep breast feeding a lot. I have plenty of milk for her to drink but she rather just be a big girl and eat normal food all day. So today is day one of our new eating routine hopefully it will work out.

Mike and I our doing good, both busy with school, work, and church callings. Mike is at the U this semester and is really enjoying being able to final focus on his actual degree instead of doing generals. And baby and I love a happy Dad. I am busy with full time work and juggling baby but the upside is time flies by and I find those times alone with baby so much more appreciated. I enjoy just her and I moments that we get together.
