July - October overview


It has been a while, so I will try to give a brief overview of the last couple of months.

We finally left the hospital, and I was very glad to get home.
Ivan and his Papa and Nana got some "getting to know you" time in; I was so thankful for their help.


I love my Moby. It gives a hands-free security, the comfy and close way to carry Ivan.
Even Daddy can carry him in it!

While William's parents were in town, we were able to visit Crater Lake. A beautiful place!
In August Liam turned two.
He got Noah's Ark from Nana and Papa



And an assortment of animals from Grandpa and Grandma through the mail.

Ivan has a great smile!

Thanks to Aunt Heather and Uncle Jason for the boys' matching overalls. They are just like the ones their great-grandfather wears.

Liam loves to "hold" Ivan his "brother."



And Mommy loves to hold her boys.

Liam also moved up to his new bed. He was very excited.

Liam likes watching the bread machine kneed the dough.
Liam can now drink out of a cup.
And he can feed himself! Yay!

I love catching Ivan smile.

In October, William's sister Lisa got married. Liam had his own seat on the plane for the first time and Ivan flew for the first time. It was quite a trip.
