A day in the life - snapshot with us

So today I decided to blog about our day to day activities.

My day starts at 630 AM when Bethanie gets up.  Bethanie wakes up and I go to get her a bottle.  I then go and check on Joel to see if he is up yet but he is still sleeping so I go into Bethanies room and change her diaper.  I feed her a bottle and then let her play on our bed.
