Long Time Coming


Okay...so I let the blogging slip a bit. Its been a long month. CJ is growing like a weed and just chats away with you like he's been talking his whole life. His favorite expressions are "Oh, no..." "Go...go...go", and "More peas (please)". He was really excited when Grandpa and Nana (my parents) came in town. He ordered them around for a full week and showed off his playground skills. Now he runs to the door when he's bored going Bompa and Nana. I guess Case and I aren't nearly as exciting.


Many of you may know my Grandma passed away two weeks ago. It was sad for all of us even though we know she was ready to go. I had a tough time with it and am just now getting back on track to finish up my semester.


Casey and CJ are enjoying their time together at home. Although yesterday CJ decided not to take a nap all day and was crazy. Poor Daddy. The pic is an old one but captures CJ's spirit yesterday pretty good.


No new news on the job front for Casey, but we're taking it slow. I am definitely enjoying having Daddy at home to take care of things while I finish up finals. We are excited knowing that I only have one semester left. Thank goodness.


Well, that's it for now. Hopefully I can keep this up or perhaps we'll have Casey became the blog host soon....

Then There Were Three

After a two year hiatus, we are going to try and keep up with this blog again.  We hope you will enjoy reading about some of our adventures again and sharing in our joys and sorrows. We are adjusting to life with three little ones.  Of course, CJ's not really little anymore and Ceirnan has grown up so much, too.  Cooper is doing great.  He's gaining weight and really starting to recognize the faces around him.   CJ and Ceirnan love being older siblings and are such great helpers for Casey and I.  Summer is moving by quickly so we're just trying to have as much fun and family time as possible.  Casey and I just feel so blessed to have these amazing children in our lives. Life is not always easy, but we are some of the lucky ones. For now, here are some recent pictures of the kids.

Global Baby

He's getting so big!  It's hard to believe that Cooper is 2 1/2 months old.  We've been home for 2 whole months and he is just growing like a weed.  The first month he gained just over a pound and was still very small.  This last month he gained over 2 pounds.  He looks huge to us, although, he's still only in the 20th percentile for his age. What's more noticeable than his size is how social he is becoming.  While he is still a Mama's boy, he is delighted to be a little brother and grins from ear-to-ear at the sight of his brother and sister.  His other favorite activity is hanging onto Daddy's beard.  It's funny, but when he cries it sounds just like he's saying Mama. Speaking of being social, we've discovered two of Cooper's favorite things- music and reading.  He bounces along and gets so excited when Ceirnan sings to him or plays the kiddie CD player.  CJ found Cooper's favorite book, Global Babies.  Cooper coos to the...

School Days

I honestly couldn't say what happened this summer in terms of updating the blog.  I suppose my excuse is that we were extremely busy at work, but still you would think I would have managed to add at least one update.  Anyway, I am going to try and get better at this and Case says he'd like to update ya'll once in awhile, too. Here are some pics of the kids during their first days of school.  It's hard to believe that CJ and Ceirnan are both in school this year.  They have grown so big and so smart.  Casey and I are constantly amazed at how much they continue to change and yet how their personalities are really the same as the first day they were born. CJ is loving kindergarten at his big school.  His favorites right now are Math ("even though it's not real Math"), Library, and Computer Lab.  He is making friends and his teachers really seem to love seeing him so that makes me happy.  He is currently working on printing his letter...
