Welcomes and Wishes
We were blessed this weekend with a visit from the great northlands of Minnesota! Grandpa and Grandma J made the trek to bring some love and meet the newest little addition to the family. We enjoyed some good company and yummy food and a few fun treats for Alexander and Continue Reading
Two Weeks Old!
Aidan is now officially two weeks old! At his doctor’s appointment he weighed in at 8lbs 11.5 oz and 23 inches long. It’s been a wonder getting to know him these past couple weeks. He’s a pretty laid-back little guy- sleepy and seemingly reserved. He’s still eating every 3-4 hours Continue Reading

Sabbath Snaps
Thank you Grandpa and Grandma J. for the train puzzle! Alexander just loves it 🙂
“Fakes-n-Zeenies”
It’s just a little sad to see Alexander exploding with new language skills and watching his pronunciation and grammar get a little better every day. He’s already got a running commentary on everything with sentences, paragraphs, concepts, and connections that surprise us at every turn. Before he begins reciting Shakespeare, Continue Reading
