Update



It's been a busy few weeks! CJ is just amazing. This picutre is of CJ and Daddy at the top of the ferris wheel at the Delaware State Fair. We thought CJ would never want to go up, but Case said he ran right too it. He even went on several rides by himself. It's amazing to watch him branch out and be so brave.

This week he had his 3-year-old check-up and a visit with Dr. Correy his allergist. He did great at both. This was the first time he got to go on the big boy scale and get his height measured standing up. He even got his blood pressure checked, which he was pretty comfortable with since he's been watching Mama get it done at the baby check-ups. Everything looks good. Dr. Hill was impressed with his speech. He waighed in at 32 lbs and was 37 1/2" tall. She said he was perfect. LOL! Dr. Correy checked CJ again to see if we could possible allow him to try a peanut in the office to see the reaction. His test turned up that he was still too allergic to risk the try so we'll just keep avoiding nuts. He gave us a plan to give to CJ's new school.

CJ is very excited about school and can't wait to get started. He tells everyone that he is going in September. We'll be sure to take a few pictures on his first day. He is also getting really excited about going into Miss Karen's music class again.

Everything with the baby is going well. I'm almost 25 weeks! It's, of course, getting harder to sleep and due to the heat I've had some problems with swelling. Overall though, I am feeling good. We are getting really excited and just can't wait to find out the sex of the baby. We are scheduled for an ultrasound on Sept. 23so hopefully the baby will cooperate.

Christmas in Kansas City

CJ is having a wonderful time in Kansas City despite a rough start. Midwest airlines wasn't able to get the family into Kansas City the way they were supposed to do. Instead they got Mama, Daddy, and a very sleepy CJ to St. Louis on Monday morning about 2:30am and to a Days Inn by the airport. His Grandpa and Uncle Eric had to come and rescue him from St. Louis the next morning. Once he arrived in Blue Springs though the fun really started. He was blessed beyond measure and spoiled completely by all his Grandparents, Aunts, and Uncles. He even got his own ride on battery operated bike that he instantly new how to run. He also had his first real opportunity to run out and play in the snow with Grandpa and boy did he love it. He had been trying to get out for days and convinced Mommy to let him go. I'll post some pictures of it later. All in all he's having a great time.

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...
