2 Months

Vance is over two months old...and learning to smile. Here are some photos that show his great, gummy smile. So cute, we think. This first photo he has his "Spit Happens" shirt on (thanks Kathy.) AND that is so true!


Things at home are never boring. One week ago Nala ended up at the emergency Vet becuase Reese body checked her into a tree. Some rib and hip soreness have kept her imoble for almost a week. Vin has carried her up and down stairs for about a week. She was also on some major pain pills--which made her froth at the mouth and wander. One time I found her staring at the baby crib--Vance wasn't even in there. Then she went into the bathroom and curled up by the toilet...huh...she was very hopped up on drugs...good for her. Nala is much better now--wagging tails and climbing stairs..

We took these pics on Vin's phone. We had fun trying to capture his small smile.

Vin is going to have knee surgery on the 12th. A little "dope and scope." Just to clean things up a bit. He decided this the other day...and due to the fact he works with the doctors he got in FAST. So we will see how I do taking care of my 'biggest baby'...actually Vin should only be down for a few days and back to work...we HOPE.

We are looking forward to his mom, dad and sister coming up next weekend. Can't wait for Sue to meet little Vance and for Helen and Charlie to see Vance much bigger. He is about 23 inches long now and 12 pounds. Yikes..


I am staying very, very, very, busy with Nordic soccer stuff and my nutrition class. Not to mention every day carting around Vance to meetins and errrands. This past week not only did I cart Vance, but I took the dogs to keep an eye on Nala. Very fun.
Vance is an honorary member of meetings and people always ask to hold him. So believe me, he will be a people person whether he likes it or not.
Well, I guess that's it...we are all doing well and life is rushing right at us...:)
