for T, E, and M

well, i have yet to make a baby book for each of our children and feel bad about that every so often. since i get on the computer much more often than i get out the scrapbooking stuff, i decided to start this blog to chronicle our lives-mainly the kiddos. their development, funny things they say and do-so when they get older they can have a little history to read about themselves.
townsend is almost 27 months. ellory is 18 months and marin is 8 months old.
townsend-he's our little happy boy. we love his smile and his generally upbeat attitude. every day lately he has been saying more and more words. i wish i could write how he says words but i'm not quite sure i could pull it off. his main substitution is he makes the "h" sound for any word that starts with a "k" sound. so he loves his "hars" and always wants to "hum" with mommy when she goes upstairs. and sometimes he asks to "holor" with his crayons. we love how he puckers up his lips so much when he goes to give a kiss.
ellory-she is definitely her own person. we say she is meloncholy because she goes from being perfectly happy to perfectly sad in about a split second. we still have a hard time figuring out what her triggers are for causing those mood swings. she is our cautious one. she just started walking a month ago and will still be stopped in her tracks if there is any kind of "obstacle" in her way. she is also our snuggly one. she will come up to me(mom) and just fall into my lap for a long hug. i love that.
marin-our baby. after many months of reflux and not getting much sleep she is finally a happy baby. when we go to get her up in the morning she gives us a big smile and starts flapping her arms and legs. she is her daddy's mini-me and he loves that. :) she started army crawling 1-2 months ago and now rocks back and forth on her knees. we expect her to do regular crawling any day now.
it's hard to stop writing about each of the kids since there is so much to tell about them and i feel like i have alot to catch up on. but i'll mostly start with the present and maybe as i remember things from the past i'll add those in.
