Zoe's 2 Months Old

We said it last month but time is just flying.  Zoe now smiles a lot more, especially after a nappy (diaper) change.  Amelia loves to read to Zoe and hug her lots.  Zoe's not quite so sure about being a little sister.







Which One's Which? (answer at the bottom)

Answer: Top - Zoe; Bottom - Amelia.  Zoe's 4 years and 2 weeks younger than Amelia but a bit bigger than Amelia was on the same date four years ago.

More Orchard Trips

We made use of our passes and the nice weather and had a couple more trips to Center Grove Apple Orchard this month, with friends and Daddy to pick a pumpkin.  We're getting to know the corn maze a little better.

Fire House - Pancake Breakfast

This morning we got out our winter coats (with a 30 degree temperature) and went to the local fire station for a pancake breakfast.  Zoe slept through the event until the end when she wanted to eat.   We all went for a ride on an old fire truck and Amelia played in the bouncy house.  The highlight for Amelia was using the fire hose and Kevin is still jealous he didn't get to do it.

Zoe's 1 Month Old, Center Grove Apple Orchard, and More

Zoe's almost a month old already.  Time seems to be passing quicker this time.  She's doing well and is generally content. . . unless she's hungry when we hear about it, especially when in the car on a deadline to get to one of Amelia's (many) activities.  Amelia is a great big sister, always trying to entertain Zoe and willing to help.

We finally took Daddy to the Center Grove Apple Orchard  couple of weeks ago.  Amelia and Kevin completed the corn maze in only one visit (it took us three last year) and Amelia had a great time going down the slide and trying out all the new activities at the orchard.  Zoe enjoyed napping in the sling.  Ironically, due to the spring freeze there's no apple picking this year, but we'll still have a great time all Fall.

Zoe comes home

We are settling into life at home as a family of four with lots of help from Grandma Marilyn and a visit from Grandma Becky, Grandpa Jim and Uncle Mark.





Amelia's first day of school

Amelia had her first day of Pre-K on Wednesday.  This is her second year and she is excited to be back in school.

Welcome Zoe

It has been a busy couple of days, but everyone is healthy and happy.  Zoe has been doing great and loves being held by her big sister.  Amelia is taking things well and sometimes get jelous when others hold "her baby".  Today we came home from the hospital and are adjusting to our new schedule.  Below are some pictures with more to follow.
