Ingrid Update

Ingrid is growing like a weed! She's 3 weeks old and getting big (well, big for being under 10 pounds).

Zoe's 2nd Birthday!

It's hard to believe that it's been 2 years since we had the surprise of our life and welcomed Zoe and Sawyer into the world 3 1/2 months before they were due. We remember every day how lucky we are that Zoe is doing as well as she is doing, but especially on important moments like her birthday. And we also take time to remember Sawyer, who will always be an important part of our family. We think about him and miss him every day.

We had a very happy celebration from Zoe where she was surrounded by her friends and family and lots of cupcakes.

And now....

Zoe's new baby sister Ingrid is making her debut appearance on Zoe's blog! We are very happy to report that after a very uneventful pregnancy, Zoe has a new baby sister, Ingrid Kathryn, born on Wednesday, March 10th at 11:06pm. We think it's a bit ironic that after having a preemie, our next kiddo would be born exactly on her due date. How often does that happen?

She is a beautiful little girl who has brought us more love and happiness than either of us could have imagined. Just when you think you cannot possibly have more love to give...



Neil always chooses the perfect moments to grow out his mustache. Just so Ingrid can remember her first days...

Ice Skating? Really?

Who knew that a toddler could go ice skating? I was a little bit leery when my brother-in-law suggested this for my 2 nephew's birthday party, but it turned out to be really fun. They skates were a little big for Zoe's teeny feet, but with Dad's help, she had a good time. These are her cousins - Maclaren, Gabe, Mason, and Lincoln.

Holidays

We had a great holiday season - very busy, but fun. Zoe got a lot of use out of her Christmas dress. Top picture is with her friends Eloise and Caoimhe.
