We are very excited to share the news that we have a new baby on the way.  The baby is due early May.  The doctors are keeping a close eye on Angie.  Hopefully with the extra attention, the baby will arrive in May.  Jimmy shared the news with our family on his birthday.  He opened up a surprise gift of a ‘Big Brother’ tee-shirt.  Along with Dunder, he is going to be a great big brother.  We could not be more excited, as we prepare for the new addition to our family.  Boy or girl, we won’t find out the gender until the birthday.  Until then, we have a few months for the quilt room transformation to Jimmy’s bedroom to occur.

We capture many everyday pictures.  Here are some of our favorites from the summer.

Jimmy is sporting a new look!  To help strengthen a lazy eye and to assist with his near-sightedness, Jimmy is wearing glasses.  When he first put on the glasses, he started to giggle and then had the biggest smile for his Daddy.  The glasses are blue and are very flexible.  The doctor referenced them as the Crocs for glasses.  Overall, he keeps his glasses on; however, at times we have to remind him that he needs to wear his glasses.  They get washed many times a day, as his attempts to remove them with his sticky peanut butter hands, spaghetti sauce, juice, milk, you get the point :).  Sometimes they fall down when he is tired and rubs his eyes.  Daycare reported him being a “new man” with his glasses.  He is now more engaged and curious about the new world that surrounds him.
