Zach Carico

Zachary Francis Carico... I love this Kid. This last week was amazing and life changing. I was able to go help out Jill and Paul during this special time. I was able to be there during his birth. It was seriously beautiful. It was a huge deal for me to see a "good" birth. Grants was so so so bad I had no idea that it could actually be a great experience. Now don't get me wrong the birth of a baby is never easy but wow to have it be so calm was amazing. Thank you again Jill and Paul for letting me be apart of it! Zach is a sweetheart. He is a very very good baby. He doesn't cry a lot which I am sure his mom and dad are happy about. He is just a cuddle bug! He will always have a very special place in my heart.

Grant and his new helmet

Grant got his helmet. He really doesn't mind it. We have already seen a big difference!Grant ate some peas this week. He likes it a lot more than rice cereal.

My Sweet Little Baby

So my sweet little boy has had some troubles with his neck and because of those problems part of his head is a little flat. It isn't bad but we want him to be able to get his head shape back to normal. So soon he will be getting a little helmet. Poor little guy! So last week he had a mold taken of his head. He did not like it at all. actually right before the plaster was put on his head the guy doing the mold asked Grant if he could start. Grant Yelled "NO." It was really funny the guy looked at me and said "I guess he doesn't want me to do this." It was sad and really funny all at the same time.
This Poor little man is really so cute when he Cries! This is a blurry picture from us at the hospital
There was a fish tank at the hospital and Grant loved it.

We had a few other friends at our house too but I didn't get any pictures of the them. bummer.

It was a really fun relaxed night.

Tornadoes

On New Years Eve Day we got to spend sometime in out basement. Why... because of Tornadoes! Since we have been here there have been some tornado watches but nothing like this. We are not used to the loud sirens and I hope we never get used to them. Poor Grant Cried most of the time. Laying out in the unfinished basement.
