here are some recent pix of us...rowan and mikey love to pick berries from our modest patch in the backyard...rowan LOVES every kind of berry...blueberries and strawberries especially!! Finally some pictures of baby Reid--he had the WORST baby acne, and was quite a scary sight to see for a while, so I didn't want to take too many pictures of him like that--may sound mean, but really his whole face was red and blotchy and he had black and whiteheads all over, it was quite nasty! But now he is adorable, and is the smiliest baby ever...when I sit and talk to him, he will coo and try to talk to me, and smile for up to 15 minutes...it is adorable and I really love doing that with him! He is a very unpredictable boy so far...sometimes he sleeps for 6-8 hours straight, and sometimes he doesn't sleep well at all...but we love him nonetheless :) Rowan is much less whiny now--teeth are in, and he is getting much better at being patient when he needs/wants something---has please and thank you down!! but now he thinks he can get anything he wants with just one please...He is a very good helper, and loves to share his toys with Reid and helps me to burp him and soothe him too! My favorite Rowan lines these days are: "good morning Reid" "bless you Reid" " I more berries" "oh my gosh"
it is so fun to hear your kid talk, can't wait to hear more from him :)

More pictures soon, love to you all! angie mike reid and rowan
