A little bit about us these days...

Some of my favorite shots over the first week...more to come.

love this one!! he is soo proud of baby sister!
this was chris as a newborn....

Hi there! I feel like it's been a month since I've updated...isn't true that the first weeks of survivor mode with a newborn and toddler you forget anyhow??? Just checking....

We are doing better daily. We have been hit with some trials but nothing the Lord hasn't brought through better closer to him etc. Our first trip as a family was Friday, Aug. 22 to a Cookout at Christie and Mark's house. We stayed about an hour and then left. For Isaac I really have been wanting to get out for his good. Today we went to church and all did great..well Isaac wanted to hang with the elementary kids..well we keep saying you are a big boy now..stuff I guess it is wearing on him...

Anyhoot! The big news is after 2 times in ER yes ER..one emergicare and the other ER...Chris is feeling better...had a virus on Iv's for 2 hours 3 days before baby was arriving and had a cinderblock hit his head 3 feet down ...5 staples later!! Planning on all of us not going to the hospital anytime soon.


My mom is an angel! I have not been the most pleasant person at all to be around..I trully think it's either hormones or meds..not sure. Have Mastitus this week but continue to suck it up and nurse through it!

We have had some amazing meals,friends, cards, calls , texts, emails, posts, walls etc. from everyone loving on us!


We have decided today to do Growing Kid's God's Way starting in Sept..easier to take a 3 week old rather than when she is older and get a sitter for Isaac on Fridays..anyone available? right down the street from us.


Isaac is also taking a Kindermusik class this fall through Jan. I missed getting him in a pre-school class but this once a week with a newborn I'm pretty sure will work great for us and then something new in January.


Hopefully it will be able to upload a bunch a pictures to see...

Wowsa, sounds like you've had a rough couple weeks...hang in there with mastitis (had it too with Addie, yuck!) and hopefully no one will have to visit the ER anymore! Adorable pic of Isaac with Olivia :)

Hope you are feeling better...we are praying for you guys. I promise it gets easier. Are you taking the baby class or the toddler class? You will have to fill me in...we won't be taking anymore classes due to Jamie's schedule. Olivia-Ryan is beautiful and Isaac looks so proud. Love and miss you. -lee
PS POOR CHRIS...I am sure he soaked up all the pity :) Guys are wimps! Just kidding. I feel really bad for him.
