We're home!!!

After 4 days in the hospital, Shan and Bryant have finally come home and we're now here adjusting to life with 2 kids in the house: one who doesn't move and the other who doesn't stop moving:-) But Brooke is adjusting fabulously to having her little brother around and is always very careful to be very soft and gentle with her new little brother. As for Shan and I, we're just glad we can all be home together again as it's no fun when you have to leave half of your family at the hospital every night. Anyway, here are some more pics and videos to enjoy!


What's up?



I don't know what these things are but I like them!



This is the best doll Mom and Dad have ever given me!!!



I guess with Bryant taking over my crib I'll just sleep here.



I'm pooped (There's a double meaning in that:-)

Brother and Sister

Here's a few more pics of Brooke and her little brother. She's so excited to be a big sister and loves holding and kissing her little "Bry Guy"

Day 1...and counting

So day 1 of having a new baby is over and life is great!! It's a lot of fun watching little Bryant trying to take everything in from his new environment and he's gotten lots of good attention and affection from all his fans including Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, and of course his cute little sister Brooke who loves to hold her little brother and give him kisses on his head.

The funny thing we've found out so far is that Bryant is not a big crier. We're not quite sure if it's because he's just a mellow fellow or if he just hasn't figured out how to use his vocal cords yet, but it's very interesting jumping from a child like Brooke (who has always been very vocal) to a little guy who just doesn't have much to say. Of course this all may change tomorrow and he might be the biggest crier we have, but for now he is continuing as the strong silent type.

Anyway, here's some more pics and a video for all to enjoy and we'll keep you posted:-)

Is that the playoffs I see on the TV?
(just to clear my name: No I did not watch the playoffs or any other sporting event during the delivery)



Happy Mom and Dad and Bryant in their first photo together!

He's finally here!

Not much time and I'm dog tired as is this little fella and his Mommy, but I thought I'd at least get out this one picture so you could all see the newest addition to our family. He was born at 9:31 pm on Monday, April 21st after a long and arduous day of labor that included 2 hours of pushing which actually just turned into needing a C-section as little Bryant didn't want to position his head the way he needed to to come out. But he's out and adorable and worth all the trouble. More to come later!

Happy Birthday Brookie!!!

She's come a long way in 3 years and we love her more every single day!!

Enchanted Easter and Wonder Pets Birthday

This post is admittedly a little late, but for all those still missing the day where a giant bunny delivers chocolate to children around the world we'd just like to say "Happy Easter!" We got the fun opportunity of going on an Easter Egg hunt the day before Easter and Brooke was very happy with the result making sure to only pick out the bright pink eggs so her basket was literally a sea of pink. But even though the Easter Egg hunt was a lot of fun, the highlight of Easter came the next day when the generous Easter bunny surprised Brooke with the Enchanted DVD in her Easter basket. Brooke absolutely LOVES this movie and as a result for the past week there has been no Mom and Dad in this household as we have only been addressed by the titles of Princess Giselle (Shan) and Pip the squirrel (Kenny). I've put the soundtrack to the movie at the right in case you want to sample the music that has been permanently etched on our brains due to the innumerable listenings in our house for the past few weeks.

We also had Brooke's 3 year old birthday party yesterday even though her birthday isn't technically until April 1st. The party was a Wonder Pets themed birthday and for all those unfamiliar with Nick Jr. pop culture, the Wonder Pets consist of a guinea pig, turtle, and baby duck who go around saving other little animals in trouble by using teamwork. Needless to say Brooke had a blast running around with all her friends and role playing like the Wonder Pets and Shan even made a special cake that looked just liked the show's cute ducky Ming-Ming. As for Shan and I, we finally discovered exactly how exhausting hosting a little kids birthday party with friends can be and feel lucky the party went on without a hitch. Enjoy the pics!

32 Weeks and Counting!!

Just thought I'd take a quick minute and post a few more pictures of Shan and Brooke. Shan is officially 32 weeks, and with only 8 weeks left til the due date we're all getting very excited trying to make all the final preperations for a new baby. Brooke is extremely eager to become a big sister and keeps telling us all the fun things she's going to teach and do with baby Bryant. We'll keep you posted with any updates as they happen.

Smiley Girl!
