First Days Being a Family of Four


We are just loving have our little guy here at home. Aubrey loves her little brother so much and always wants to give him little kisses on his head. Although Michael definitely has his days and nights mixed up, he is a great baby and rarely ever cries!

Grandpa and Uncle Tyler also came out to visit for a few days. Here is "BaPa" (as Aubrey calls him) and Aubrey taking a nap together. They slept like this for 2 hours!

Here is our little guy in our home tanning bed. After only 3 days he had overcome his jaundice and was ready to be held all day again!

Aubrey loves any sort of hat or shoes. Here she was bound and determined to get on Auntie Jessica's Ugg boot.

Mission Accomplished!

My Mom was able to come out for 10 fabulous days to help me with the little darlings. It was so great to have her here. Thanks Mom!!!

Amber, Congrats on baby number two. It'll be so fun to have a little boy! I think about you all the time when I drive to my sisters house in hunter's valley and wonder which house is yours. We still live in Spanish Fork, I would love to get together sometime. I swear I saw you at Cosco a couple of weeks ago, but I didn't realize it was you until you were almost out the door. Any way good luck with those sleepless nights. It's all worth it though isn't it.

Amber-
I lost your phone number and I've been wanting to call you to set up pictures of this darling little guy!
Please call me again (sorry) and we can get the pictures done.
Thanks!

Michael is so adorable! Is Aubrey loving her role as a big sister? She seems like a pro already! We would love to meet your new little guy!

I love Aubrey with the UGGs and sleeping with BaPa. That's hilarious she calls him that! I bet he loves it. So Michael had to be under the belly lights??? AHH!

He has changed so much!! He is adorable. Aubrey looks like she is fitting into the "big sister" role very nicely! I am so happy for you all. Congrats again:)

Hi Amber~
Thanks for talking to me today. I had my OB apt. and she said the false positive rate on AFP's are 70%!!! That's crazy! I don't think I'll get it done again. We had our US tonight and it's another boy. He looks really healthy and I asked her to get a good shot at his face and he has a good strong nose! I'll let you know how my apt. next wednesday goes. Thanks again for everything!

Michael is a doll. I'm glad to hear Aubrey loves him. I'm really worried about how Antalya will react to a baby in the home.

Antalya is obsessed with hats and shoes too - the bigger the shoe, the more fun it is.

What a cute little family! Michael is a little angel and Aubrey is as cute as ever. (I love her trying to get those boots on!) You look great too Amber... beautiful as always!
