Izzy is starting to sleep (knock on wood). She’s slept at least 5 hours in a row the past 5 nights. Sometimes she sleeps in the morning, sometimes she’s fussy. Had a bad day at work yesterday, and got home. Took me a little while, but she reminded me what Read more…

She’s asleep in my arms right now. It’s crazy to think that one day she’ll be walking, running, trying to go on dates, etc. How can you remember that she was so small once? She’s still not sleeping great, hopefully that changes soon.

Isabella is one month old today. What a month it has been. She went to the beach. She went on the river. She met all the great grandparents. She’s met most aunts and uncles. She smiles. She cries. Her poops are getting bigger. She’s sleeping slightly more at night. She’s Read more…

Anna thinks there is something wrong with Izzy’s eye. I’m not so sure. This week she met Stefan. She’s also prepping for her first ride back to New Bern. Me and her sleep together in the mornings. I try to help Anna get another 30 min to an hour. It’s Read more…

It’s been too long since I wrote on this. Izzy met all great grandparents and she met my dad, making it all grandparents. She also met Kelsey, and is supposed to meet my brother today. She hasn’t been sleeping great, but we may have figured out a trick with her Read more…

Izzy is almost 2 weeks old already. I got home and it was really cool feeling coming home to both Anna and Izzy. The doctor went great, she’s gaining her weight back. A lot of firsts in the last few days. We took her to Mr Tokyo with Sharkey. We Read more…

I left Anna and Izzy a couple days ago. It was a lot different saying goodbye this time. Much more to leave. I don’t want to miss anything.  We had our first FaceTime, and then our next, and then another one.  Apparently Izzy’s bellybutton fell off, I can’t believe I Read more…

Izzy is spending her first night alone with us. I feel like she’s a show off. She is very quiet when we have company, but then wide awake when they leave.  She rolled over from her stomach today. I don’t think that’s normal. She’s really strong…and perfect.

Bella likes to take walks outside. She was crying and I took her on walks and she fell right asleep. It’s also a good time to teach her things. I taught her about fishing, the solar system, rain, and basketball.  She also likes to ride in the car. That is Read more…

“There is a time to let things happen, and a time to make things happen” That was the quote outside of our room in the hospital. We left the hospital and got home around 5 pm last night. Very fast turnaround.  The first 2 nights have been more like days. Read more…
