Kyle 4 weeks!

Kyle is 4 weeks and he is doing good. I was at work for a baby shower and I weighed him. He weighs 7 lbs and 7 ounces. He is doing well. Still waiting for his darn umbilical cord to fall off!

He actually wiggled his way off the pillow and fell asleep like this!

Chloe's 4th Birthday Party!

First a few funny things about Chloe being 4. She thinks that she can only wear size 4 clothes because she is 4 (even though 3T still fit because she has no butt) and she thought that she was going to wake up on her birthday and be BIG! She was a little disappointed when she was the same size. The Saturday after her birthday we had our family and a few of our closest friends over to the house for Chloe's 4th birthday. We tried to keep it somewhat low key since Kyle is so young. We had pizza, the kids had a water slide and then we had cake and ice cream. Chloe had a blast! Here are a few pictures from the day:

Candy Land was the theme of the party

Making a wish

Not a great picture, but here is Kyle at 3 weeks.

Happy 4th Birthday Chloe!

Happy 4th Birthday Chloe!!

I cannot believe my little girl is already 4 years old! Time goes by soooo fast! Chloe is changing so much. The way she interacts with other people has changed and she is just growing up so fast. Her favorite food is McDonald's chicken nuggets. She still enjoys reading and has started to like watching Dora (that is all she will watch at this point) and she loves loves loves to play with her dolls. Oh and she still likes to fold clothes. Here are a few pictures from her birthday. We went to McDonald's for lunch and when Daddy came home from work she got to open her gifts. Then we went out to eat with Manna and Gumpy to Juanito's and then back to their house for cake and ice cream. She had a great day! Her birthday party is this coming Saturday so I will post more then.

Indoor Soccer

Kaitlyn and Chloe started indoor soccer at Horizons soccer in League City. It is very fast paced because the ball never goes out of bounds it just bounces off the walls. The girls had a really good time.

2 weeks old

Well Kyle is 2 weeks old today!

Pretty Pictures

On June 12th, Kaitlyn was spending the night with a friend and Dan was like "Why don't we go for a car ride?" So Dan, Chloe, Kyle and I got in the car he drove out to this little park out in the Silver Lake area and we went over to the water and he took these pretty pictures of Chloe by the water. He also gave me an early anniversary present. He gave me a ring with all three of the kids birthstones in it. It is very pretty and I love it!

Gymnastics

Chloe started gymnastics on June 11th. It is through the city, but it is held at Reflex and she loves it! Here are a few pictures of her first class.

Kaitlyn - Soccer Camp

Kaitlyn has soccer camp this week at the high school. It is every day from 8 am - 11 am. She is learning new skills and getting some good exercise. We also signed her up for an indoor soccer league today. She will have her first game this coming Saturday. Here are a couple of pictures from soccer camp:

Update on our Little Man and New Pictures

Well we were released from the hospital on Sunday afternoon. Still not sure exactly what is going on with the little man. We were seen by an infectious disease doctor, plastic surgery and dermatology. They are pretty sure that it is not an infection and dermatology thinks it is some sort of skin disorder. Not sure exactly what because they have not been able to biopsy it yet. We will follow up with Dermatology on Thursday down in Galveston and hopefully they will clear us. Here are a few pictures over the past few days.

We made little braces to keep him from rubbing his feet together.

Then we tried wrapping it

Sweet baby boy

Just a cute picture - if you look close enough you can see that his hair is spiked.

No more pictures Mom!

Update from UTMB

First of all here are the pictures of Kyle's feet over the last week.

This is what his heel looked like the day we brought him home.

And his toes the day we came home:
And his heel, toes and finger yesterday when we arrived at UTMB.
He got his IV placed last night around 10 pm and received his first dose of antibiotics. He is receiving them every 6 hours and we are putting antibiotic ointment on it as well. He is not running a fever, he is feeding well and other than his bobos he is acting completely normal. After only 2 doses of antibiotics we can already see a difference in his heel. It looks like it is trying to scab like his toes have already done. So we are hopeful that this stay will not end up being too long. We are waiting on the infectious disease doctor to come by and hopefully we will have a better idea of what the plan is after that. Here are a few more pictures of our stay so far.

Just chillin in his boppy lounger

Hanging out with Daddy (he loves to be held like this)

Lounging again
We used his little stuffed animal to keep him from rubbing his feet together

Catching Up

Well this is going to be a bit lengthy because I want to catch up from the last week. Things have been a bit crazy as you know so I have not had a chance to update the site much.

We (Dan) forgot the camera at home so these were taken once we arrived home.
