Good Luck

Good Luck Aunt Linz and Uncle Joe.....

Lindsey goes into the hospital at 1am to begin the process of welcoming Brady into the world. They met with Doctor Klien today and he told them that this will be a long process because apparently Brady does not want to come out. Looking like it will be closer or on Thursday rather than any time soon. I will let everyone know when the time comes. Everyone will be there to cheer Linz on, we can't wait to meet our new nephew. RJ can't wait to meet his cousin...well maybe we will see how that goes, I am sure he will deal better than Harley.

My Baby turns 1

I am so excited that RJ is becoming such a big boy, and sad to think how fast this first year has gone. Everytime I look at him I am amazed at how much he changes everyday. Today has been a chance to look back and think of how crazy the year has been...and how Matt and I would not change one minute of it. We are so thankful for our wonderful son. It just seems like time has flown by since his arrival, it makes you remember that you need to stop and enjoy every minute.

1st Egg Hunt

Our neighbor had an Easter Egg hunt last Saturday, she had 1100 eggs and 30+ kids. You should see their firework display better than most towns. RJ did a really good job putting eggs in his basket, thought it was like playing basketball at the house with dad. He was so cute, after he put the egg in the basket he clapped and looked at me to clap for him too.

32 Weeks

Aunt Linz is in week 32. She is doing well, had a little flare up of her Crohns but she is doing better now. She is starting to understand why everyone told her that the begining and end are the worst parts of pregnancy. Uncomfortable to say the least. Baby Rushing is going well and is right on target, he has also decided to rest on her bladder.

Bunny

RJ thought that the Pup Pup was even bigger than Hogan. He did a really good job with the Bunny and we got some really cute pictures. He was not afraid just called the Bunny a Pup Pup.

Cookie Monster

This is what a cookie can do to a little boy. I had no idea how messy learning to feed ourselves was going to be, you can actually get cookie in your nose. RJ is learning new things everyday and is in a very "monkey see, monkey do" phase. This is something that mom and dad are trying to remember so that the little man does not do something that will get him into trouble. He is walking in between Matt and I, yesterday he let go of the ottoman and walked to us several times... pretty sure any day now we will be walking. Hogan and all other dogs are also now called Pup Pup. RJ has also figured out how to share food with Hogan and Harley. So you always know when RJ is eating because Hogan is sitting right next to him. RJ is also wanting to be naked all of the time now....he tries to crawl away anytime you try and change him. It is a pretty good fight now to change him and put him into clothes, sometimes you win and other times the naked boy gets away. Naked boys are also very likely to pee on your carpet --Dad found that out the hard way. Every day is something new and I am amazed at how much he is changing.
