Jeremy's 1st Day of School

Jeremy had his first day of preschool! He is in that "no picture" phase so they're not great pictures but they will have to do. He didn't shed a single tear or seem to care that we were leaving him! Such a big boy now! He learned about birds and animals in the wilderness. He really loved his 1st lunch box...a dump truck! The best part about school...mornings off for mommy!

4 Week Check Up

Amelia went to the doctor today and she weighed in at 8 lbs 15 oz. Jeremy did not like her crying so hard so he tried to make her feel better. Sweet boy!

How cute is this?

Amelia's 1st Hospital Visit

Amelia was just not herself on Tuesday morning and then from 6 am on, screamed bloody murder. I had school with Jeremy so Ryan took Amelia to the doctor and they sent us to the ER. Babies her age can't fight infection and because she had a fever, it was obvious her body was fighting something. Anyway, after a day in the ER where the poor little thing was poked and poked again, her white blood cell count came back high which meant she had an infection of some sort. Her and I were admitted Tuesday evening and just got released today. She was on IV antibiotics for 48 hours and all tests came back negative. Here she is getting antibiotic treatment on day #1! I will remind her of this scare often!

Firestone Picnic 2008

We celebrated Father's Day a day early and headed up to Santa Barbara for the annual Firestone picnic with Oma, Opa and Auntie Jacqui. For those of you that don't know...that's where Ryan and I got married! We ate a lot of good food, drank yummy wine and watched Jeremy throw rocks, eat watermelon and fly his first kite. I think we all had a great day!

Cousin Jett...

is here to visit with his mom Auntie Jacqui! We've had bath time, play time and lots of hanging out time together!!!! I think I've been a good cousin and even better big brother. My sister is 2 weeks old now and she sleeps a lot and eats even more. She has been treating my mom well..only getting up a couple times a night and some nights just once! I think she's pretty cute but I may be bias! You can't tell in this picture but she has blue eyes! Here are some pics!

One week old!

Sleep tight...this is what I do most of the day. My mom doesn't mind because she can still get things done and hang out with my brother Jeremy.

Ready to come home!!!!

I wasn't sure about my car seat at first but I fell dead asleep and loved my first car ride!
