One month old

Our little guy is just over a month old. Hard to believe he has been here that long already.


He is so far a good baby. Eats and sleeps. He does cry but only when he is hungry and stops as soon as you feed him or give him a pacifier.

Madan voyage

After a 12 hour trip to CT to get this boat and several weeks of trying to figure out how to get it to the river.

We loaded it up in the back of Shelley's van and took it for a ride. It was not easy to paddle and Marcus needs to do some practicing before we all get in again.

Making of a deck

Two weeks ago Donnie, Marcus and Brian put a deck on the back of the house.

They got the frame and the deck boards done all in one day.

Working hard in the sun all day

Sawing, putting in screws, and sanding lots of boards.

Now we are just waiting for the weather to cooperate so we can enjoy it.

Blueberries

Just before our baby boy came home we took the girls blueberry picking. Sophie picked lots of blueberries, but none of them made it into her bucket. Brie was helpful and collected lots of blueberries and was very proud to say she only ate one! Quite the opposites aren't they.

knoebles

Last weekend we spent the day at Knoebles with some friends. The girls had a great time. Brie rode her first roller coaster. . .


she claimed to like it, but looking at her face on the ride I am not so sure

The both enjoyed the kiddie rides, Sophie especially loved these boats.

They also loved the slide.

Mommy rented a little jazzy scooter and rode around the park, it was a bit comical but it works there was no way I would have been able to walk the park less then a week after my c-section and I didn't want to miss out on the fun.

Home at last

On Monday, July 4th, Brennan was finally able to come home. We think he likes holidays because he was born on father's day and got to come home on independence day. He has been enjoying his time at home getting to play with his big sisters. He is finding his voice and lets us know when he is hungry or wants attention. So far he seems to be pretty laid back and sleeps most of the time.
