Random Happenings

Aidan's Home Depot tattoo (which is still on his arm a week and a half later)

Aidan feeding Kiersten a bottle. He is my big brother super hero.
At the Stars game.
During warm-ups, this puck actually flew off the ice and hit the netting at the end of the ice before hitting Aidan on the head.

Like Brother, Like Sister

Everyone keeps asking if we think Kiersten looks like Aidan did as a baby. We think she does, although she doesn't quite have the chubb that Aidan had at that age. Here are some pictures for comparison. What do you think?

First Swing

Kiersten tried out the swing for the first time yesterday. At the begining she was a little unsure. About one minute later she was sound asleep.

Dinosaurs

On Saturday, the weather was beautiful so we visited a local natural science museum that has a special dinosaur exhibit. They have life size, robotic dinosaurs set up along a path through the woods. Aidan, although he kept saying how much he loved the dinosaurs, was a little timid if the roar caught him off guard. He enjoyed roaring back at them which is what he is doing in some of these pictures.

Two Weeks

Kiesten had her two week checkup this week. She has already gained almost a pound since birth so she is doing well. We don't have to wake her up to feed her anymore at night so hopefully she will learn not to wake us up either. She enjoys her bathtime and attention from big brother. She has also already rolled over in both directions (front to back and back to front) although I am not sure it has ever been entirely on purpose.

Settling In...

Here are some new photos of life at home with Kiersten & Aidan

On the way home from the hospital

Aidan jamming at the football game. His towel has a picture of a guitar on it.

Trying out the bow. Not quite enough hair to hold it in yet.

These boys need some supervision
