Thanks for Visiting Us at the Hospital

Curt, Jenny, & Daniel Leonard came to visit. I have a picture of Curt & Daniel from that day as well, but it refuses to upload--I've tried 3 times--sorry guys!!


Lynette, Brittany, and Shawn, our KinderCare friends, brought Alex the cutest 2 foot tall Winnie the Pooh!


A special thanks to Grandma Kay for all her help and hugs during these first few months with Alex. We feel very blessed to have been able to adopt her into our family!


Greg, Jenny, & Joshua came to visit us, but I'm having technical difficulties & can't get their picture to upload. Thanks also to Pastor Pearson, Pastot Tracey, Mr. Martin, Faith, & Cindy for visiting and welcoming Alex to the world!

June 29, 2006 Alex Came Out to Play!!

The wonderful person who invented the pacifier deserves a round of applause from new parents everywhere!



Grams loves her Little Peanut!


Oh no, I have Smurf hands...


What a busy day...I think I'll take a little nap.


Proud Daddy


I can't believe I am actually posting this picture on the web!! Well, it was a very special moment!

And then there are days when we aren't sure that we love life...

We're Back!!!


Hello all,
It has been a long time since our last blog. We finally have internet access and we hope to now be able to keep up with our blog in the future. Here is a recent picture of our handsome little man. He is now almost 11 weeks old. He is happy and healthy.
Sometime soon we will try to get a couple of pictures up to catch you up on the last couple of months.

Toby and his favorite chew toy...my hanger!


What a mess!

Moving day is coming! Believe it or not we are moving again. This coming Saturday Jessica and I will be moving to the basement apartment of a lady who goes to our church. We are hoping to save big bucks for diapers this way. It is a very nice place and a lot closer to church, school, and work. We'll post some pictures of the new place once we have moved in.

Beginning/End



Jenny & Greg Herman came over the day after Thanksgiving and we had to get a picture of the two pregnant ladies. Me, at the beginning (8 weeks) of pregnancy, Jenny, at the end (36ish weeks). As far as pregnant ladies go...our husbands are glad we aren't going to both be pregnant at the same time for long!!

4 Weeks Pregnant



Here is Jess at 4 weeks pregnant. Little "BC" (baby coon) is about half the size of a BB pellet. Over the next few weeks it's growth progress will be like this...BB pellet--grain of rice--raspberry--grape. From then on out the poor child's size will be compared to every piece of fruit known to man!!
