Happy Holidays

Good to see you back on, Sam. Is that Lee's mom's house? It's nice. You guys are so cute. We had a great Christmas too, with lots of activity and visits as usual. Now we've all got a bad cold-will the sickness never end?!- but that's okay, hopefully we'll be healthy again by this weekend.

Roman is growing at an amazing rate. He is such a big guy, but very lean. On Wednesday he will be one month old; I can't believe it. What a fast month, with all the things that have happened and all the activity of having two kids. He is looking around, doing little pushups and making adorable little gooing and sighing noises. He is a very happy little guy.

Angelina is so smart it is stupefying. She has the vocabulary of a much older kid and is even talking in sentences, like "mama daddy eat taco" or "mama help open box". She can play more and more fun games too. Now when I sing "old Macdonald" I let her fill in the blanks of the animals and their noises, and she also fills in other things too. Like "old Macdonald had a chair, with a sit sit here and a sit sit there". What a riot.

Here are a couple of pictures of Gina wearing clothes that Roman got for Christmas.

I'm baaack!!

Yay I'm finally back to the blog!! For some reason I lost complete access, but I'm back!

Hope everyone's Christmas went well....Lee and I had a wonderful time, I am on holidays until January 2nd but Lee went back today....I'm enjoying my time off but am surprised how fast I am getting bored hahaha! Anyways here is some recent pics of us and our lifes....(most pics on facebook for those who have it)

Xmas Part One

Happy Holidays

Thanks everybody for your greetings and wishes. We're doing great, how about all of you? We had our first Christmas (one of four) on the weekend and Matt's birthday is this week. So we're busy as ever plus twice as busy at home. Not too busy for visits and stuff though.

Oh yeah, the birth was fantastic. I forget about it because of all the stuff since. But I did great and it was a good experience.

Angelina loves Roman. She rocks him in his chair and gives him toys and blankets and talks about him. She was an angel when we were away having him and has been an amazing big sister since. Matt was also amazing with Angelina on his own, and Roman is a wonderful, happy little guy. I have the greatest family ever.

Finally Some Pictures

Thanks for asking, Robyn. They thought Roman had in his blood the bacteria that causes Meningitis, which is deadly. They did a whole bunch of tests and kept him on IV antibiotics for a few days while waiting for the results, just in case he had it. He also had lots of other stickers and monitors and routines. As it turns out, he never had the infection or any other problem. I am sorry that he had such a rotten start to his life, but so happy that he is healthy and home where he belongs.

So we were all separated for one week and then together for one. Today Matt is back to work and it's my first day alone with both babies. So far so good, but I'm a little nervous about going anywhere. We'll start with a short trip into town today.

Little Boy Blue

Big sister

Roman is a big boy, but there is no fat on him! He's really tall and thin, like his daddy.

HELLO!

Hello all!

I know it has been a while, but I'm here now and that's what matters, right? CONGRATS on the new baby Matt and Keira! Welcome to the world Roman!! I can't wait to meet him you guys! Is there a shower? Or did I miss it somewhere?

Oh no, how come he's in an incubator? I know you say he's healthy and everything, but what happened?

PS. Happy xmas shopping!! :)

Robyn

Hey there, great to hear you guys are home and doing great.....cant wait to see more pics of the little one!

Welcome Home Again

Roman and I have been staying in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit this week. We are home now and looking forward to starting over! I don't have new pictures because I didn't want any pictures of my baby in a plastic tub with tubes all over the place. He is just fine though; big and healthy. Angelina has the flu and hopefully will recover quickly and not pass it along. My poor babies! I am so happy we're all back together again.

Cutie!!

Awwhh, Congrats you three!!! So did everything go smooth??? What better present could you get just before christmas!!! Angelina must be extatic! A new baby to play with... I guess it might take her a little while to realize he's here to stay though hey? Sammi mentioned monday... I work at 5pm in Armstrong, but would love to tag along if she ends up going out there... havn't seen you in a while... let us know if you need time to settle in though...we can always re schedule.

Congrats!

Congrats to you both, he's absolutly adorable!!!
