Happy Birthday Alana!

Today is my beautiful wife's birthday.  In fact, to be more specific, it is her "golden birthday" (i.e. turning 24 on the 24th).

I am so grateful for Alana.  She is a fantastic mother to our little Graham.  She still makes me smile each and every day.  And she is still as stunning and beautiful as the day we met.  Don't forget to wish her a happy birthday!

Love these two!

One Month

I can't believe it has already been a month!  I love being Graham's mom.  He is such a good baby and I am so happy he is mine.  It has been amazing to see Josh as a father.  He is such a natural, it is fun to see the love he has for his son.

One Month Stats
Weight: 8 lbs
Height: 21.5 inches

Apparently he is growing taller faster than he is gaining weight- but I'm not worried because he is gaining weight and healthy.  So the Dr. told me this then asked how tall Josh was- when I told him he said "well we'll just have to see what genes he got".  I didn't think of it then, but when I got in the car I thought about it and I'm not sure what he meant... Is Graham tall or short?  I don't know how tall he should be but considering he grew over 2 inches I was thinking that was a lot- am I wrong?  I hate when I don't think to ask "What do you mean by that?" It happens to me a lot...

Happy Easter!

Grandma and Grandpa Gillette and Maddy and Mckay came and stayed for a couple of days and met Graham for the first time! We had a lot of fun and we miss them already!

 on friday April 6th we had college day- which means if you dress up in college gear you get a free coldstone ice cream and free chips and queso from Qdoba.  So of course Graham had to dress up too.

 The girls had to show us all how to do it- it is much harder than it looks!
