My First Entry

So this is my very first blog, and what better way to celebrate then with some pictures of our kids! Peter was born on September 20 at 11:07 after 13 long hours of labor with a home midwife. Mark and him get along well so far and we can't wait for him to grow up as a playmate of Mark's. These pictures are taken south of Provo on our hike. We've noticed that these days Mark loves hikes and we enjoy the exercise every week. It's becoming a tradition to get out each week and see a new place. He really has a good time running thorough the forest and hiking on trails. The only problem seems to be keeping him in sight. The week before we went to the grotto and found that Mark was still wanting more so we had to hike further on another trail. If only we had a GPS for him. My Dad also bought us a bob double stroller and so we are enjoying the warm last few weeks of fall and getting out with the two boys. Mark loves walks and he's helping get his Mom back in shape with frequent requests for the new stroller. Peter's newest thing is that we've discovered he loves warmth. Unfortunatley, he's still quite fussy at times and the other day I was pulling hot laundry out and in an attempt to carry the clothes upstairs stuck him in. He calmed right down and stayed there for over an hour just looking up. He's also fond of the heating vent so we stick his swing in front of it in the kitchen and find it works better than holding him. Necessity is the Mother of invention. Hope this is not too boring and you stay tuned. Thank you Dad for the funds for our new stroller!
