Excited!

This week/weekend brings SO many wonderful things: some of our best friends, Josh and Rachel, had their first baby boy, Drew on Tuesday!, my new jeans are now toooo big (yahoo!  My old ones don't fit yet though, see last post!), Riley is tolerating her tummy time (for the FIRST time in 8 months!!), Reese is scooting all around on her tummy- ha!, my parents are coming in town on Friday night!, Saturday is the NICU Reunion!, AND Sunday is Baby Dedication Day at church!

Woah... lots of exclamation points.  Baby Drew was born on Tuesday at 5:55PM weighing 7 lbs 15 oz after Mommy Rachel was in labor for 13 hours (I can't imagine!).  He is a DOLL- looks just like Rach, but has his daddy's giant hands and feet... I'm talking literally BIGGER than Reese and Riley's-- ha ha!  Here is the girls' new "cousin:"


Look at that sweet face!

"aunt" Amy with Drew!

Our "Family" picture (note that R and R are CLEARLY more excited about Susan than Baby Drew!)

Here's a few pics of the girls playing!


Naked Babies!

The girls with their new friend, Parks!  Isn't he CUTE?

The girls are sooo sleepy-- can you tell?  Sullivan got in this pic too!

Riley playin!

Reese WAS on the blanket... then she scooted and scooted and ended up here... with my flip flop?!  

I'll take lots of pics this FUN weekend... 
But gosh, what's up with this SWINE FLU thing???  Should we go NOWHERE?  Isn't it funny how we spent October- March ONLY going to dr appointments and nowhere else and now that we can go out and about- the FLU hits again?!  CrAzY stuff!
