Our Latest Snow Storm

Our last winter storm rolled through Sunday night. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

This is what we opened the door to at 9:30 when Kevin was getting ready to head to work..


A little perspective of how deep that snow is...




And finally, the next morning...

Kaitlyn's Morning at Daycare

Thursday was Kaitlyn's first day at daycare... sort of. Our daycare does a 3 hour day before the children start so they can get to know the kids and the kids get to know them. Kevin and I dropped Kailtyn off at 9 in the morning, went to breakfast and did some errands. Kaitlyn apparently had a good morning. She slept in the swing for two hours. She also met Santa and Mrs. Claus for the first time. I wish I could have been there! Santa even brought her a present... a little stuffed reindeer. Her first full day of daycare will be on the 29th and I go back to work full time on January 5th.

For all you Floridians, we got about 6 inches of snow yesterday/last night and are expecting a foot or so on Sunday.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ...

So it is starting to look a little more like Christmas around here. A lot of area houses and businesses have their lights up, and some of the displays are great this year. We've also had our first snowfall, even though it was only an inch or so, and has no completely melted due to today's heavy rainfall. We're still holding out hope for a white Christmas though! Below we have posted some pics of Kaitlyn out in her first snowfall!

Thanksgiving

Hello all, sorry this post is a day late, but here it is. Since the Patriots are not doing well today, this is a perfect opportunity to share some pictures from our first Thanksgiving as a family. We celebrated Thanksgiving at Bugaboo Creek Steakhouse, which turned out great.

Here is Kaitlyn getting ready for the big day

























Kaitlyn in her Thanksgiving attire ...
























Kaitlyn being thankful ..




















And finally here are pictures of us at Bugaboo...































The meal ...





















And lastly just a fun picture from home ...




















Hope everyone is doing well, we had a few moments of flurries here today, but it quickly turned over to rain. Luckily hasn't been that cold here, living near the coast has its advantages. Will be posting again soon!

Another quick video

Just a quick video of Kaitlyn in her bouncer, a little grainy because it was taken at night. Will be posting some photos Thanksgiving night or the day after. Hope all is well with everyone, and thanks for all the well wishes and support given over the past couple of weeks.

Just a quick little video taken at the hospital when Kaitlyn was first starting to look around, she is on her phototherapy bed. We'll try to get better videos on here in the near future.

Finally home

Well here we are, finally home. Obviously a busy couple of days with sleepless nights as we try to get adjusted to Kaitlyn's schedule. Left the hospital a day late, only so Kaitlyn could get treated with some photo therapy for jaundice, a common problem apparently with late preterm babies. Below are a few pics of Kaitlyn and her coming home outfit.
