First Magazine Publishing, and other business...

I just heard from Tucson Lifestyle Magazine. They will be publishing three of my pictures in their upcoming wedding issue. I just updated my edp blog with my latest wedding. I start tomorrow with my busiest month so far this year. I have back-to-back weddings tomorrow & saturday, then I have next weekend off (if you count hours on the computer editing them, off). Then I have a 2-day LDS wedding in Mesa (sealing and reception on Friday, 2nd reception on Saturday), then another wedding the following Saturday. In May I get a bit of a breather, thank goodness! June is vacation time, with a family reunion & a week-long camping trip. In July we will hopefully start our kitchen renovation! So- Maybe I'll take pics and do a play-by-play on the renovation.
The boys are doing great! We have discovered that Ben can have soy lecithin, which opens up a whole new world of foods with long shelf-lives. We also all started going to a chiropractor. It started with Brandon who had been in a car accident, then we decided to take Ben. Then I went, & Isaac will be going tomorrow. I can't believe what a difference it has made! I hadn't realized that I haven't had full mobility of my neck in years! Ben has really responded. He loves going and getting adjusted. It has really helped calm him down. Which is great, since he has been having occasional foods with soy. For Isaac's birthday, he'll be able to eat the same pizza that we eat, instead of the frozen pizza he usually has to have. He still has a reaction to the soy, but it seems to be milder, and he is doing a great job at learning to control his energy.

We are getting allergy testing done for Ben & Jonathan. We know of the soy/milk allergies, but Jonathan seems to be allergic to other things as well, and it's been hard to pin them down. We figured we might as well get testing done for Ben, just to see if there may be other triggers.

Jonathan is almost two... (yes, that's butter..maybe he's trying to cure his dairy allergy?)
Isaac turns 5 on saturday. He's a funny kid. (like any of our kids are seroius and subdued?) I asked him to put something away the other day and he said, " I can't, the tv is controlling me, and it told me not to."

Brandon is counting the days until summer vacation...

Liz, that is awesome. Congrats!!

I have no idea what the allergy stuff means, but I hope things continue to get better.

I would love to hear more about your kids' experiences at the chiro. Kev and I go, but am unsure of taking my kidlets yet.

A big "ugh" to the kitchen redo. Good luck!

Hope everything continues to go well for you all.

Yay! Yay! I'm so happy you're getting published.
The butter picture is charming. I think he is trying to do a performance of "Grease".
Allergies stink. I do the chiro thing because I'm the queen of pinched nerves. I go through our osteopath, and he's quite good- without him my leg kept going numb!
