Happy Fall!



What great Fall weather! Allison has been doing lots of outdoor activities taking advantage of being outside while we still can. We've been going to the park and out on long walks and she loves to sleep the whole time. Boomer likes to walk directly in front of the stroller and "lead" the rest of us - it's so cute!

Allie had a check-up with her pediatrician yesterday and he said that she looks great and is doing just fine. She weighed 9lbs 6oz and is 21 inches long.

Allison babbles quite a bit and likes "tummy time" on her Baby Einstein mat. She continues to be just a bundle of joy for us and we are so grateful for her good health.

We hope this message finds all our friends and family well.

I Love Being Home!

It is so nice to be home with my family! I've been getting big and am adjusting well. I now weigh 8 lbs and have a big appetite! Most of my days I spend time cuddling with Mom and Dad, doing "tummy time" and going for walks in my stroller. Big brother Boomer is very curious about me. He watches me and peeks in my crib when I cry. I can't wait to pull his tail and feed him Cheerios!

Mom and Dad are taking good care of me. I'm still using oxygen and a monitor, but have started weaning off both. I enjoy "Daddy/Daughter" time when Mom needs to run errands. Dad is teaching me all about football.

Hope everyone is well!
Love, Allie

Finally settling in






Yes, it has been a while since this update but we have a good excuse. Allison is doing great but she does take a lot of our attention, probably since we don't have the nurses to oversee any longer...
