Timothy Bruce Ray is Born!!!

Timothy Bruce Ray
Born: September 12, 2009 3:02 am
7 lbs. 9 ½ oz. 21 ¼ in.
(This picture is Timothy at 3 days old)

Well, very unexpectedly, our 4th little munchkin joined our family last week – he is officially one week old today. Not lots of time to tell the story right now, of course, and I’m horrible at choosing and eliminating pictures, so I’m just going to post them all from his first week right now, and maybe another day there will be more time for descriptions & better organization(though I doubt it!) The poor little guy has spent his first week of life in the NICU because of a condition he has called congenital chylothorax… As of right now, he does seem to be doing better – or at least not getting worse, so we are VERY thankful! It has definitely been the longest week ever, but we are just so thankful and in love with our new little son! What a special and sweet spirit he has about him. We are truly blessed with our fourth little angel!

Colette's 2-year-old Pictures

Well, I finally got Colette's pictures back that we had taken for her 2nd birthday last month... I have to say, she is just way too much fun to dress up for things like this because she loves it so much! Such a girl! And of course way too cute for her own good (even though I know I'm biased!) :) So anyway, here's her pictures -- they turned out pretty cute!
