Winter Swim

Reid keeps getting out his swim shorts, wanting to go swimming.  No amount of talk of how cold it is outside convinces him that he shouldn't be swimming.  But, who says he can't wear his sunglasses in the cold, if mom won't let him wear his shorts!  Oh, and napping is a popular sport in our house!

Superbowl Sunday

Who needs to sleep through the Superbowl, when they can sleep through Disney's Toy Story?!

All three boys, sounds asleep with Toy Story playing on the TV.

Buzz and Woody came out for the movie, and ended up with a nap instead!  Notice Reid has his Buzz and Woody jammies on for the occasion, as well.

Winter in Ohio

We have enjoyed lots of snow, which has given Reid a chance to use his polar bear sled that he got for Christmas.  Daddy and Reid had so much fun, while Mommy and Chase stayed inside in the warm cozy house and viewed out the window!

All dressed and ready for the snow!

 Come on mom, let's stop with the picture taking and get out on the slopes!

This is the place to be, not out in the cold

Go, go, go!

Amazing how a nice warm bath and a cute green robe will take that cold right out of you!

The Chase is on!

He is a sweet boy and a beautiful addition to our family.  He is loved already by two big sisters and a big brother, as well as grandparents, other family and lots of friends.  We are adjusting to the life of little sleep again, and looking forward to every day with our new little boy!

Coming home from the hospital.  Had the same expression his brother had when he got ready to come home.  Hope this isn't telling us something!

Reid meets his baby brother for the first time.

Chase's first real bath, once he could get into the tub.

Grandma time!

 

Getting in some wiggle time

 

Chase Allen Kennedy

On January 10, 2012, Chase Allen Kennedy joined our family.  He was born at 3:10 pm in Wilmington, Ohio.  He weighed 9 lbs. 1 oz. and was 21 inches long.  He came quickly into the world without any troubles, and mom and baby are doing great!  Here are some glimpses of his first few hours:

As soon as he was born, the doctor gave him to us, and we snuggled for quite a while before the nurses took him for bath and weighing, etc.

Pround and exhaused parents!

 There he is, our big boy!

Daddy time

I guess cleaning up isn't so bad...

or is it?!
