One Month Old

Yesterday Rhys weighed 10.8 pounds completely naked. I can't believe he's one month old!

Alyssa + Rhys' First Bath

These pictures are co-mingled because they were taken in this order... enjoy!

Easter Sunday

On Easter we went out to Gramma and Grampa's house for an easter egg hunt, as usual.





A friendly neighborhood cat came to join the fun.

Nice kitty.

Rhys' First Week

Snapshots of Rhys' first week. A lot of sleeping and a little bit of crying...



Welcome Rhys Holden!

Wow, 8 pounds 8 ounces! Our other midwife, Peggy, was impressed

Rocknoceros April '11

We went to see Rocknoceros at the PWC Kids Expo for the second year in a row. We all enjoyed our last excursion as a family of four, as Rhys was born less than 12 hours later!

Waiting and waiting

It's been the week of doctor's visits, five in three days topped off with three yesterday (four if you count Kelly and Alyssa being seen together as two). Kelly spent the day with Rhys and me because she was sent home with a fever the day before. Here we three are waiting to get a lab test done at the hospital....

And then, two doctors' offices later, Kelly and Alyssa pose at their doctor. Both of them have viruses that give them sore throats... we're hoping the rest of us don't catch it! Kelly weighed just over 30 pounds and Alyssa was just over 23. It makes me wonder if Alyssa will catch Kelly first or if Rhys will catch Alyssa. I'm guessing the latter, but you never know!
