I smile!

I smiled the other day for Mommy, it took a while to get it on camera. It was worth the wait!!

It wasn't long until, I stopped smiling...

I came with Instructions

Groveland

After Thanksgiving, my family went to Groveland and stayed in a CABIN!! It was time for us to relax! We had a lot of fun! I pretty much hung out with my cousin Cohen and got sat on by my brother. We went to Wal Mart and shopped. We went to a park. We went to the firehouse and met Santa. Actually I never met him. In fact, my brother got a firehat and I got nothing and I wasn't the one who cried!! I never even told him what I wanted. On the last night, Daddy set a bucket on fire. He was putting hot ashes in it, silly Daddy!!

Thanksgiving

We went to Oma's house for Thanksgiving. She has a beautiful new kitchen.Nana and Great Nana came too! It was terrific. I have a lot to be thankful for. My Mom dressed Aron and me the same today.

Turkey Trot

Mommy and Nana continued their tradition of running the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. Aron ran last year, this was my first year. We had a lot of fun and Daddy was there to root us on!

Latest Pictures

Mommy thought she would share the latest pictures of me. Not much new. I eat, sleep, and poo. Although Mommy thinks I am ready to smile and Daddy got me to take a binky. I really like to be held - A LOT. My Mommy calls me "Snackwell" because I graze - she is annoyed!! I am getting enough to eat, though. I am 11 pounds!!

Mommy says she loves me a lot, but has no idea who I look like - any ideas??

I also put up with a lot!! As you can see Aron is annoyed with me too! Poor me, I am trying!

Pictures with the Aunt and Cousin

I was able to hang out with Auntie Mandy and Cohen the other day. I love them very much. Aron decided to get in on the scene, but then he would not smile!

Bathtime with Aron

My big brother is so cool. I took a bath with him the other day. He gets to draw in the tub and on me! He helped Mommy out by pouring the water over my head, I think he liked it too much!!

First Bath

I took my first bath. It was pretty uneventful. I was ticked off being naked, then they put me in the tub, which was not too bad. I liked getting out the best and getting into my pajamas even better!!

Do I look like my brother?

Here is a photo of my brother and myself in the same outfit around the same time. What do you think? I am on the right, Aron is on the left.

Halloween

I went to Trunk or Treat with my family. This is the only picture I am in.

Then Mommy dressed me as a cross between a cow and dalmation. I was then tortured by my brother and cousin!!

My Life

So, far I am just dragged along to a lot of places - the park, shopping, Fall Fest, Trunk or Treat...it is a lot for a week old baby! I just like to sleep and hang...is that too much to ask??





And do I have any pictures with my Mommy??

So Far...

I have not been around long, but here is a recap. I slept really well the first night. The nurses said that might happen because I might be tired from the circumsision - no kidding. The next few nights have been pretty typical, waking to eat, sleep, etc.

I am slightly jaundiced from being vacuumed out. Because of the jaundice I am pretty tired and tend to fall asleep while I am eating. I have to go be pricked again in a couple of days to see if I am better. Otherwise, it is under the tanning lamps I go!!

Hangin' with Dad

What else is there to life, sleep and video games...

I am so Popular

Wow! I got home and there was a sign for me, a present (thank you Cohey), and people have been coming over non stop! This is so cool.

I'm Heeeeere!

Hello, everyone. I am officially here. I made my grand, dramatic entrance on Thursday, October 18, 2007 at 9:49 am. I was 8 pounds and 21 3/4 inches. My Mommy and Daddy thought my entrance into this world would not be as scary or dramatic as my brother's, but I am not to be outdone!! I pretty much mirrored Aron's entrance. My heartrate dropped dramatically when Mommy was puking. I would not bring it back up and I would not be pushed out. So, I was vacuumed out, and not breathing very well. I only made bird calls and gasped for air. But my Daddy gave me a blessing and I perked up, especially after a kiss from my Mommy before they took me to the NICU. I bounced back great and we came home the next day. I have darker hair than my brother, but we look a lot alike, especially since I have a cone head just like he did!! I have met many new people, but I cannot wait to take a picture with my whole family!! I love you!
