First Week

Baby Mae

Mae Elise was born on June 19th at 8:57p.m. 9lbs and 19 inches long. It was an amazing experience and we are happy to be home with our healthy baby girl.

She was awake and alert right from the start and she nursed ALL night long.

Cute Pic

This might be the only good picture I have of me and Miles. Miles is squinting but it almost looks like a smile. Good enough for me :)

Miles' Hair

Miles' hair goes from this........


to this.....
when it gets sweaty. Looks like he might have curly hair this summer.

Another example of why dads are more fun.....

The Big 2

Today was Miles' 2nd Birthday! Miles woke up to find that he now the proud owner of a fancy black truck.
He was pretty excited about his truck which was good considering his party was going to be very tame due to my bed rest and his recent exposure (by exposure I mean repeatedly eating food out of his friend's mouth while she was contagious) to Fifth Disease. It sounds really bad but it is really just a childhood virus that has few symptoms while contagious, and a horrible rash after it is no longer contagious. The only real concern is for women who are pregnant, like me. I have to do some extra blood work on Monday to see if I am already immune. Because of this we decided to uninvite the 2 kids who were coming just to be on the safe side.


Luckily Miles still had a great time eating a birthday breakfast with his GG, GMa, Grandma, and Grandpa.
If you ever want to make Miles really happy just bring him a balloon.

Miles' Grandma suggested that he climb out the back window....he liked that idea.

A little cake after waffles never hurt anybody.

Happy Birthday Bubsie!
