yes we are still alive...

Things have been a little crazy around here lately. We've all been adjusting to becoming a family of four. Bryan's been traveling and working a lot. The laptop I use to update the blog isn't working. And I could keep coming up with excuses on why I haven't updated the blog. So hold tight and hopefully this week I can catch up. Or at least make an attempt to. Bryan did leave this week (again) to do more traveling.


Here's a few photos in the mean time.

big sister, little sister

These first few photos captures Kaitlin's first time meeting her little sister. Surprisingly she's been doing VERY well with her. We think it helped that she had baby dolls that she played with prior to meeting Lexi. In some of these photos you can see the awesome view we had from windows in the corner room.

 Clapping in excitement.

 Kaitlin was pointing to Lexi's nose & toes.

april 3rd - induction day

I'm still working on a detailed birth story. I will update this post when it is complete.

Here's a photo taken right before we left for the hospital for our scheduled induction.

Here are a few photos of Lexi right after she was born.

39.5 weeks

The first photo is a picture of me at 39.5 weeks with #2. The second photo compares my belly to when I was 39.5 weeks with Kaitlin. Throughout this pregnancy everyone kept saying that I was "all belly" and carrying really low. And lots of people were thinking the baby was a boy.

funny face & kicking the ball

I'm catching up on posting a few older videos. These were both taken the last few weeks of March. The first one captures Kaitlin's "excited" face and the second one shows her future as a soccer player.

slide

Kaitlin LOVES to go down the slide. Once she's goes down, she wants to KEEP going down it.

gymboree

Last week the nanny took Kaitlin to Gymboree for open play. She said it took Kaitlin a little while to figure out she couuld run around and play on everything without getting into trouble.
