My sister and I got to spend more time with Jaeden yesterday the 5th of July. He is so cute and I cant wait until he gets a personality of his own! He is so precious. We took Diana the little mirror thing for her car that had a toy attached to it for Jaeden. We also took her the Star that we had named after him. That was pretty cool. So he got his first at home bath yesterday and he was pretty angry about the whole situation but he got over it and he smelled all pretty when he was done. After it was over and he was dressed again, he was so awake and had his eyes open for quite a long time. We took a few pictures and here are a few of them:

Here he is with his eyes open. This is the first
time i really saw them and they are a
beautiful color of dark blue...
gorgeous!!!


Here he is right before the bath. He is in his
little pooh bear bathtub. He didnt yet know
what was in store for him! Poor guy.
Notice the bruise on his forehead...


And here I am holding him after the bath.
He was so so so tired but he was fighting
it so bad because i think he realized how
much there was to look at around him :-)


So this was the few hours with the little cutie. I will update you when i know more. As you know children are ever changing and I will update as much as possible!!! Thanks for reading!

This has been a busy week. My sister and I have definately been on our toes. To start the week off, our mom had surgery as I posted below. She is now out of the hospital, home and doing fine. They think she will only have to have one more "look" to see if they got all the stones out of the "pockets" in her kidney. Other than that she is doing well. We went wednesday night and did a belly cast for our friend Diana. You can see the pictures of that at my sisters blog on the right. Its Alicia's blog. That was a total blast. During that whole night she began to have back pains which turned into labor. She went to the hospital thursday night where we joined her. She labored at the hospital for about 7 hours before she and her husband Mike were blessed with a beautiful baby boy named Jaeden James. He came in weighing 7lbs 2.2oz and 20 inches long. She did beautifully and they both created a beautiful little boy and I cant wait to spoil him. So we were there at the hospital and didnt come home until 8 am friday morning. We crashed until about 4pm when we got loaded up and went to see them again. We took him his little happy birthday bear thing and chatted with the proud mommy and daddy. It was wonderful. So we came home about 10 that night and cooked dinner for our dad and brother. We crawled to bed around midnight or 1 in the morning. Everything now is better and more evened out. Jaeden Diana and Mike got to come home this morning and now all is well. I cant wait to see him again. He is so precious and so perfect.
