Pre-Christmas

My mom came for a couple days. Here are my mom and Isaac in Rittenhouse.

First time on the big swings!

My littlest guy!

Tyler, 1 Month

(Warning: Post written by sleep deprived mom of a newborn, if it is incoherent, sorry!)
Well, as you can imagine, life with 2 little guys is non-stop work (I was going to say "and fun", but let's be honest, it's not fun all the time.) Both boys are doing well, but we are experiencing the understandable adjustment period. Isaac - to life as not the constant center of attention, and Tyler - to life, in general. Isaac loves Tyler and often mauls him with hugs and kisses. And with not getting a lot of sleep, our patience and creativity to deal with issues isn't great. Anyway, we are loving being a family of four and our two sweet boys. Here are some pictures from the last few weeks.

First Bath


Isaac loves to rake the leaves up and then redistribute them around the yard.

Ben's First Marathon

Ben ran the Philly Marathon in November and we were so proud of him for finishing. Since the race came only 2 weeks after Tyler was born, Ben had been on 1 training run in the month prior to the race and it had only been 7 miles. So I wasn't sure he would be able to finish, but he did and in a great time - 4 hours and 28 minutes. I took both kids out to watch him and it was great to cheer him on. Congrats!!

Here he comes!

Yay Daddy!



There he goes!
