Dear Zach,
You can also have a look at mvSLOUCH (on CRAN). If you have only two traits it 
will be similar to SLOUCH and mvMORPH (maybe mvSLOUCH will have more detailed 
output). But mvSLOUCH will also allow you to model multiple correlated traits 
responding to (multiple correlated) BM traits.

Best wishes
Krzysztof
