Welcome Alden James!

Congratulations to Curt and Jamie who welcomed Alden James Lucas on Tuesday!! We are so excited for them--another buddy for Layla:-). Jamie had him just before 1a.m. on Tuesday so she was close to having him on Layla's due date! Had Layla decided to come on her due date like we had planned we could have been in the hospital together:-). Here are some pics from the hospital on Tuesday.

The happy new family:-)




Girls with the babies...


Guys with the babies (except for Brad--7 1/2 weeks left!!)...




And thanks to Keely's suggestion of taking a pic with a stuffed animal to see her growth...the first one was from just over 3 weeks old (right when she came home from the hospital) and the other is from 9 weeks. It's hard to tell wear her feet end in the first pic, but the blanket goes quite aways below her feet. It will be fun to compare this doll to her in a year!




It got so hot and fumey (I know that's not really a word) yesterday in our house from cleaning the oven we had to turn the air off (which we NEVER do b/c we both are so hot blooded) and open windows to ventilate. Elvis enjoyed the breeze through the window...


And some more recent pics...
I love my brother...


Most of the time...


I am baby-sitting my nephew, Gavin, today...he liked pushing Layla in the swing:-)
