POOL!!!!

Our pool has been deteriorating for years and last fall we finally had to drain it. Draining the pool wasn’t all bad though as Mike and my brother, David were able to skate it through the winter. Now, as spring is upon us, we have finally bitten the bullet and have had the pool replastered. I cannot wait for it to warm up enough outside to use the ‘new’ pool, again!

Baking Planets

On my first day completely alone with both boys, Wm and I baked cookies together. He’s been very interested in dinosaurs and planets lately so we baked our sugar cookies, cut them into dino/planet/star shapes and decorated them together.

Avery's First Week

Home Again, Home Again




Here are a few photos from our first week home with the new baby. Grandma and Grandpa M were here all week to help out and to keep William active while Mike and Jenni were at the hospital and the first few days home. It was wonderful to have the extra hands.

Luke Avery McMorran

Well, after a very, very long wait…

We are pleased to announce that Luke Avery McMorran has finally arrived. Avery was delivered at 10:59pm, March 8, 2010. He weighed 7.0lbs and was 19 ¾” long. He is an absolute joy! He is mild tempered, easy going, and looks almost exactly like his big brother. The entire family is doing well. Jenni is recovering quickly from the delivery, Mike was able to be home all of last week with the family to ease into new routines, and William is adjusting well and loves his little brother.

Here are a few photos from the delivery and hospital.

Update

Well, our due date has officially come and gone, and yet no baby. We had a doctor's appointment today and all looks well. I continue to grow and dilate but slowly. At this point we have decided to schedule an induction. If the baby has not arrived by Monday morning we will go to the hospital to be induced.
All is well here at the house. Mike will finish his business law class on Monday (what timing, huh). William is as crazy as ever and his newest obsession is Ironman! He's been ill this week with a horrible head cold (which he caught from me) but has slowed down very little. And I am finally feeling better after a 2 week stent with the bug. We are all ready for the baby to arrive and look forward to this new chapter.
We will keep you all posted in the coming days/week. We hope that you are well and we look forward to introducing our new little guy to everyone.
All our love
~Jenni
