This past Tuesday both girls had ultrasounds of their kidneys. Why you ask. Well, both Addison and Kennedy have what is called a preauricular sinus (or pit) which is a small hole just in front of their ear, it almost looks like a tiny hole from a piercing. To Brian and I it wasn't a big deal, as Brian also has one. Since the ears are formed at the same time as the kidneys sometimes there is a correlation between the preauricular sinus and a problem with the kidneys. So, the girls had ultrasounds to make sure that there wasn't a problem. The girls did so good! Both of their appointments were scheduled at the same time, so I went in with Kennedy and Brian went in the Addison. Addison was very ticklish and thought the gel was cold and pretty much laughed the whole time. Kennedy smiled and cooed. We received the results today and they are both normal! This is exactly what we expected, but thought that there was no harm in checking them out just to be certain.

Brian and I also recently purchased a new lens for our camera. We are really wanting to expand our interest in photography and eventually take portraits on the side. Unfortunately right now we don't have the ideal space or lighting but we are hoping to resolve that soon. I have included some pictures about with out new lens. We are really pleased with it and can't wait to play with it more!
