Cuties

Here's a couple pictures to tide everyone over for a bit.

Julia and Jared sitting in the glider before bed one evening in late February. (Doesn't she look like she's trying to ward off anyone who would want to mess with her little brother?)

And here's the newest little one waiting patiently while I gave Julia a bath one night.


The stats from when we took them both to the doctor's on March 8th: Jared was 8 pounds 1 ounce and 20 inches long. Julia was 23 pounds (I think) and 30 inches tall. Both checked out perfect. Julia got three shots and Jared had his foot pricked (and Julia had a finger pricked too).

New Addition

Welcome Jared Matthew...

And here is his big sister showing him some love.

And a cute family of four.

Our newest addition came real early on Monday February 22nd. He is doing wonderful. He is also being acquainted with our office, just like his sister did. They both have a doctor's appointment tomorrow, so hopefully I will give updates on them soon.

A couple of quick notes on Julia: She can count to 15 as of today. She sings lots of stuff, including ABC's, the first verse of Amazing Grace, Puff the Magic Dragon, and her other songs. She is getting bigger by the minute. She talks in real sentences. She knows Please. Thank you is a little rough going right now. She has gone potty (both ways) on the real potty. She has peed in her little potties. She is not really into telling us when she needs to go, so potty training has not really happened yet. She wants to know where Baby Jared is when we get home from work, and she could care less about giving Mommy or Daddy a hug. She is such a good little helper around the house. She still likes to feed Max, do laundry, take baths, vacuum, read books, brush her teeth, and put trash away. That's it for now.
