Caped Crusaders

Nicholas and Maggie have become playmates. Their interactions usually involve costumes, lots of shrieking and some kind of mess making. They have a great time though! 

Claire Bear turns Seven Months!

Look at this little girl! It is hard to believe  how big she is getting. She is sitting up, trying desperately to crawl, and working on her first tooth. 

New life for our long neglected blog....

I just discovered the blogger app and I am hoping it will enable me to post more often. Most of my pictures are on my phone anyway, so it will save me having to transfer them to the computer. It doesn't exactly lend itself to lots of writing, but the pictures can speak for themselves.

Here are some pictures of the kids spending some time together at home.

Welcome Home!

40 weeks + 5 days + 12 more days + 18 long hours = the moment we have been waiting for!

All About Claire- Day 13

Just to keep things interesting, with just two doses left to give, Claire's iv started leaking. So from 2:30-4 am three different nurses went through three different veins trying to get another one started. They were unsuccessful (baby veins are tiny) and ended up having to give the last two doses by injection. This was especially hard because they have to use two syringes per dose and she was still un happy from the iv debacle.... She did it thought and passed her hearing and cardiac assessments. Hopefully the next post will be about her homecoming!
