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.

Hello from Philly

Hello and Happy Holidays from the City of Brotherly Love! Its almost New Year's resolution time and one of mine is to maintain a blog for all our of friends and family who don't get to see our little guy on a daily basis (and for those of you that do too). CJ is ready for Christmas- although Santa is not his favorite as you can see. I'm not sure who is worse at peeking at packages though, CJ or Casey. We were too excited to wait so we've had a Christmas tree up since the weekend after Thanksgiving. We kept the unbreakable ornaments on the lower part of the tree, which has been good since he likes to take them off and throw them to his daddy. He's so smart and observant. I'm just amazed by him. He loves to learn and seems (to me) to be very mechanically minded since he can unscrew or take apart anything you put in front of him. He has an infectious grin and a laugh that reminds you what living is about. He likes to talk all time and he LOVES to dance. He's ju...

Mystic, CT

We had a great time in Mystic, CT last weekend for Father's Day. We spent Saturday at the Mystic Seaport, a little reanactment community right on the water. We even got to see a replica of the Amistad (the original was either scrapped or sunk). That part was neat, but very sad to see the conditions those men endured. CJ loved the water and kept trying to walk onto all the boats he saw (even the yachts that had just docked for lunch). He really enjoyed driving the ship. We then had lunch at a great little inn right on the water- Seaman's Inn. It was wonderful. On Sunday we went to Mystic Aquarium. CJ really loved it. His favorite was the buluga whales as you can see from the picture. He laughed and oohed and ahhed. It was a great weekend. Now we are just gearing up for our trip to Kansas City and for his birthday in a few weeks. Daddy is going on a guy's camp weekend next weekend with Uncle Sami so CJ and I are planning a trip to the zoo. We'll put up more pics then.

Big Kids

  Ceirnan in her favorite outfit outside the ballet studio- leotard and overalls.  Someone is all ready to head off to Stephens.    CJ looking cool for school.  Ceirnan,who believes jutting your hip out is the coolest thing ever. Where did my babies go?  It's so hard to believe how big they are and how much they have grown in the last year.  Ceirnan is sprouting like a weed and towers over most her own age.  CJ doesn't have the height, but he is about the most mature young man I've ever met.  They are both so bright and excited to learn.  It makes me so happy seeing them together.  Typically, they share, they are polite to each other and they never make it through the day without at least two or three hugs and kisses for each other.  It makes my heart melt to see how much they truly enjoy spending time together.  Do not get me wrong- Ceirnan is too bossy for CJ and one of CJ's favorite phrases (which we h...
