Welcome Baby Sister!

Lucille Amelia came into the world on June 4th at 2:44 pm. She weighed 7 lbs 5 oz and was 20 inches long. She is cute and pink and looks nothing like Kai as a baby! She has lots of dark hair and we think she looks more like her daddy.

Lucy has finally arrived!

Daddy and his little girl

Kai was a wild monkey when he came to visit us. He was very concerned that Lucy didn't have a ba-ba (pacifier) in her mouth because every baby needs a ba-ba!

Fun at the farm

Our friends, Brooke and Craig, brought their family to Wilmington a couple of weekends ago and the boys took a trip to the farm. They got to fish and ride a tractor so needless to say it was a good day. Here are some of the amazing pics Craig took....

Kai loves the beach!

We spent a week at Topsail Island to celebrate Papa's birthday and we all had a blast. The weather was gorgeous and our little sand flea had a great time playing at the beach! It's so fun to see such absolute joy on his face.

Easter in Durham

Egg Hunt at Gaga's

Kai absolutely loved the easter egg hunt this year and he was actually pretty good at finding the hidden eggs. And what a lucky boy, he got to have an egg hunt at each grandparents house!

Happy Birthday!!

We celebrated Kai's 2nd birthday at the park last weekend with the grandparents and several friends. The theme was tractors of course and Kai had a blast!

Surprisingly he loved the party hat!

Playing with his friends and new toys

He definitely had the hang of opening gifts...

and loved his cake!

Mommy's helper....

Kai loves to help. He puts his clothes in the laundry bin, throws trash in the garbage, and won't let me leave dirty dishes in the sink. I guess he's trying to keep up in line.....
