Jordan Cameron Caballero




Jordan Cameron Caballero was born Nov 8 at 7:06am. He weighed in at 7 lbs 9 oz and measured 20 1/2 inches. Because he kept on turning breech, the dr decided that we should turn him into position and then induce labor to lower the chance I would have to have a Csection. So Friday at 10am we went into the hospital. My sister, Heather, was with us. They did an ultrasound which showed that he had turned into the proper position. So they started by putting a pill on the cervix that would begin the labor. By 5pm, I had some contractions but not much progress was being made so they broke my water. I was sure that would work but no, so they started the Pitocin drip which I had fought against but had no choice now. That really started active labor but the baby didn't like it. Every time I started to get into hard labor the baby's heart rate went down and they dropped the amount of Pitocin, which pulled me back out of labor again. It was awful! He just really did not want to come out!! All through the night, he played these games. I was so tired and just wanted it to be over. Then my body decided to betray me and not dilate forever!! I was so scared that I was going to have to have surgery. Finally, after all night of labor, I was told I could push. I was so glad because with my other boys, once I could push, the pain lessened and it was over. However, the first push I thought I was going to die from being torn in half!! I didn't tear of course but the pain was SO intense, I can't even describe it. So now that made me scared to push anymore. But those of you that have been thru it know that when the urge to push is there it is very difficult to fight against. Anyway, finally he was out and it was all over, thank God! He was not happy to be here. He cried for a good half hour straight (very loudly!!). But since then has not really cried at all. He seems to be very content now so far.

My parents brought the boys in around lunchtime to see their baby brother. Aaron would not get up on the bed- he really doesn't like hospital beds for some reason- so he sat with Daddy so he could hold the baby. Tyler climbed up next to me to hold him next. They loved him and wanted to see all his hands and feet and all. Then it was time to leave and Aaron wanted to take the baby home. He didn't care if Mommy stayed but he wanted the baby to come! =)

Sunday, after church, Wilmer came to pick us up and take us home. He didn't tell the boys so they could be surprised. Jordan was very good and just slept all the way home. He didn't care about being in the car seat at all. We walked in the door at home and the boys were so excited. They had to hold him over and over. Even now, 3 days later, the newness has not worn off yet. They both still love to hold him (although Tyler likes it more than Aaron now). If he makes noises, Aaron runs over to see what is wrong and what he can do to make it better! They haven't really heard him cry yet so we will see what they do when he gets his lungs working!

We are starting to adjust. Mostly, it is just me trying to figure out some kind of schedule but he eats so sporadically still that it is hard. Having 3 instead of 2 is really not that different. I think it was harder to bring Tyler home and adjust than it is with Jordan. Although I keep calling the baby Tyler! I don't know why. So enjoy the pictures and we will keep everyone updated with all the new developments to come!

Halloween



Ok I said I would post a pic of them dressed up so here it is.

Baby Update

This baby has given us more "grief" than the other 2. Aaron was the easiest pregnancy and absolutely no problems or extra ultrasounds or anything. He came 2 weeks early so nicely and easily. Tyler was fine except for moving all the time, until the end. Then he decided he was a tumbler and began to turn somersaults in my belly about 4 weeks before he was due. Every week I was in for an ultrasound and they were concerned about him being born breech because he would not stay head down. They ended up inducing me with him and everything went fine.

Now this baby... early on I had the placenta bleeding and the midnight trip to the ER for that. Since the first moment I felt it move, it hasn't stopped. I think it moves the majority of the time so I am afraid it will not be a good sleeper!! It can't just relax. But I was happy that it was head down...until last week at the dr appt. 37 weeks and it decided to turn around and stand up. So Monday we had to go to the hospital to get it checked again and a possible "version", which is where they attempt to turn the baby back down. Thank God, it turned by itself so we could go home. However, how I have to wear a binder which is just a wide elastic "belt" around the upper part of my belly. It is SO comfortable .. oh just kidding. Actually it makes it hard to breathe, eat, sleep, oh but I should be used to that by now with this kid! So now I have another reason that I am praying this baby comes very soon! I have 2 weeks left but am willing to go anytime! Check back in for the BIG news and pics which we will get up as soon as we can after the event!

Fall Activities

Bike Riding and Fall Activities


Click on the picture to see pics and videos.

Wilmer took the training wheels off Aaron's bicycle. He spent an hour or so just helping him ride around the yard. The following day I helped him for about an hour and he could ride across the front yard which isn't that large. Then Saturday morning, he wanted to ride around the block! So Wilmer rode his bike and Aaron rode his and he has been riding ever since! I can not believe he is already riding like a big boy. He is growing so fast! He even talks older now- it's scary. Now he always wants to be out riding on his bike. I found a bike trailer on craigslist brand new, that we can hook onto the big bike and I can pull Tyler around while Aaron rides his bike. Of course, now I find it very hard to ride with my huge belly! =) So we haven't been riding in a while but Wilmer takes them out after work if its not too cold.

As you can see in the pictures, we got little pumpkins for the boys. We went to a pumpkin farm and they each chose one that they wanted. Tyler HAD to carry his own of course- Mr Independent. Then we came home and I took off the "hats" and the boys cleaned them out. Daddy helped them carve faces and we put little tea lights inside. The following day I let them finger paint their pumpkins so they had fun with that. Then a week later we threw them out because they were rotting already and were well played with! =)

Last weekend we went to Strong Museum. I was hoping all the activity would kickstart this baby but no such luck. They had a new Curious George exhibit and that is the boys absolute favorite TV show. Daddy also took them both on the little train ride, which was Tyler's first time that he remembered. They also had the kids decorate little brown bags to collect different goodies and candy being passed out throughout the museum by different characters.

This Friday night if it is not too cold, we might be taking them out trick-or-treating. I'm not really into all that stuff but since Mom had some outfits for them to wear I thought we might try it just one year. I do not get into all the other Halloween things and I don't tell the boys anything about it. I don't really consider it a holiday so I am not going to teach my boys silly things about it. I will post a picture here of them in their outfits. They are pretty cute!!

Family Update

Aaron really wants to go to school since his friend, Brandon, has started preschool. So we have "school" at our house about an hour or so a day. We are learning a letter one day and numbers the next day. He has done A and B and 1,2,3,4 and he loves it. He is learning the sounds the letters make and how to put the numbers in order. He does very well at night as far as wetting the bed. He went for about 2 weeks with no accidents at night so we took him to the store to pick out a toy. It was great not to have so much laundry from all the bedding and PJs! =) He acts so grown up sometimes and some of the things he says are so amazing. I can't believe that he is only 3 1/2 but acts much older. I thought 3 year olds were still babies but I am amazed at what he knows and picks up. He loves to help Daddy mow the lawn. He sits on the riding mower and steers for him! Aaron loved the pool this summer. He wears arm floaties (called his "muscles" ) and is not afraid to swim on his own with them. He loves to jump in as long as one of us catches him. He likes the water but hates for it to be in his eyes. He doesn't like to go under so that is something we will have to work on next year. But he loves that he can swim on his own now. We are going to close it up next weekend and he is upset about that. We had an aquarium for a few weeks and Aaron fell in love with the fish. I sold it and when the people came to take it away, he actually cried and was very upset. I didn't think he was that attached. I felt really bad but we can't have another one until the kids are older cuz they can't stay out of it!

Tyler is almost 22 months. He acts so much older though and wants to do EVERYTHING Aaron does. We are working on the potty training. He does well one week then goes backwards. He likes to go on the big toilet. I try not to get my hopes up too much. I know that when the baby comes everything will probably go backwards anyways. I know he is still quite young but I am encouraged at how much he really wants to. He likes to wear big boy underwear. (with rubber pants over them) During Aaron's "school" Tyler wants to do everything too. We are working on colors for him and his favorite is brown. He knows brown for sure. He loves to color. We are working on knowing to color ONLY on paper that I give him! He wants to make all the letters just like Aaron and sometimes it makes me crazy. He gets frustrated because he can't do something Aaron is. He is as active as ever. He doesn't stay still for more than a minute!
He has had his own bed now for quite a while. He would not stay in the crib anymore so we decided to just let him sleep on a mattress on the floor and he loves it. He is still up early every morning but at least he can just get up and not cry and wake Aaron now. He is so talkative now. Of course most things are unintelligible but he just chatters nonstop. He will eat anything and everything but is still a skinny tall little guy. I think he will be taller than Aaron.

I am 32 weeks pregnant now. Only 8 weeks to go- hopefully less! No, we still did not find out what it is. We will be surprised when we see it for the first time. Many things are different this time with the pregnancy but that doesn't mean anything. I crave sweets constantly! With the boys I never did. I rarely ate chocolate when I was pregnant with them. Most everything is ready for the baby's arrival. We are working on a name still but will soon have that ready as well! =) Tyler doesn't really understand but he thinks it is funny that the baby "kicked" my belly button out. Aaron is very excited and says he will take care of the baby and not let Tyler be mean to it. =) He calls it a "she" because the only baby he has really been in contact with is cousin Gracie.
I work 3 nights a week still, about 5 hours a night. I will be stopping at the end of October unless of course the baby has different ideas. I am ok with whenever this baby wants to come except Oct 31! Wilmer is still at Paychex but now their department has moved to the other side of the city. Now he has to contend with so much traffic. He is still looking to move to another department within Paychex but right now is just waiting for an opportunity. He has been working at the apartments on the weekends. We have 2 empty ones so we are praying that those will be rented out soon. God had been good to us and provides just what we need when we need it. We have all been healthy this summer and are looking forward to the fall and holiday season with all the changes to take place in our family.

Late Summer Family Picnic

We decided to have another family picnic since Dad and Mom had been away for the July 4th picnic. So everyone came up to our house for a pool party. Of course, the weather had to be chillier that week so the pool was quite cool but the actual day turned out fine. The only person missing was Zeb so we will have another family get together when he gets home (which will be holiday time). All of the kids wanted to go swimming so most of us went in the pool at least for a little bit. Stacey and Heather wanted to have a chicken fight so they elected Cody and Wilmer to be the .."Bottom" whose shoulders they sat on. Then they tried and tried to get each other off. Finally the guys had enough so they just dumped them! Almost everyone got out except Heather, Emily and I. We were just laying on the rafts. Emily fell asleep and then fell off her raft! It was quite funny! A rude awakening that's for sure. Wilmer and Cody were "sunning" oh I mean, laying out on their towels in the yard sleeping. Stacey went to lay with them but... she doesn't understand the meaning of "laying out" because she had jeans, shoes and a sweatshirt on! Check out the pictures here Stacey had made a birthday cake for me with a pregnant woman with a little baby in the belly on it. Aaron wanted the piece with the baby so I gave it to him and he thought he was supposed to eat the plastic baby too! But it was a pretty good weekend. We went to the Strong Museum for kids again with David and Melisa and brought Grandpa and Grandma along this time. It was nice to be together and now that our house is so much bigger we are not so crowded. Grandma helped the kids put on a little play with costumes at the end of the weekend. It was pretty cute and they were proud to get all dressed up. You can see the video here.

Airshow

To see the pictures of the airshow click here

We went to the airshow here in July. Usually we park at RIT (the college) then ride the shuttle buses to the airport. This year, they were using school buses as shuttles. Aaron was so excited because he has been wanting to ride a school bus ever since he learned what they were. But Daddy and Mommy weren't so excited. School buses do not have a place for strollers and chairs and all the extra junk we have to bring. So Daddy ended up in one seat with all the stuff and the boys and I were in another seat. The day turned out to be very nice and sunny, but not too hot or humid. We walked around and looked at all the planes on the ground. We could walk thru some of them, like the big cargo planes, FED EX plane, and some other big ones. Others we could just look at or stand next to. They had helicopters- army and medical, and other military vehicles as well. We saw parachuters, which Aaron thought was pretty cool, and some small plane demonstrations.
Then the big event- the Thunderbirds. They always do them at the end of course. Tyler was awake the entire day until right before the Thunderbirds started flying then fell asleep! I don't know how he could sleep as they are not very quiet but he was exhausted. I had just laid him in the stroller because my arms were falling asleep when one of the planes flew directly over the crowd ( a "surprise attack" that most people don't see coming so it scares you). Tyler opened his eyes, sat straight up for a second then laid back down sound asleep! It was so funny! Then after they were all finished, we took Aaron on the moonwalk thing that the kids can jump on. Then Tyler woke up unfortunately too early! I was hoping he would sleep at least until we got back on the bus.
I took Tyler and went to stand in line (which was hours long) to get back on the bus. Wilmer and Aaron went around to look at some more planes. Our line turned out to be shorter than the other one for the other school- ours took about an hour or so before we were on the bus. Aaron fell asleep on the way home and we brought him inside. It was only 5:30 so I let him sleep about an hour then tried to wake him up. It was impossible. He was so worn out! He slept until 4am then got up and came to our room, Tyler following behind. I had not been sleeping well either so now we are all awake at 4am on Monday morning! Let me tell you, that Monday was NOT a good day and we all went to bed early.

July 4th



For July 4th weekend, we went down to PA to stay at my parents. Dad and Mom were in Romania so we had full run of the house! =) We went to Stacey's for the day on the 4th. All of us were there except Dad and Mom, Zeb (in Afghanistan) and Melisa (working). We had SO much food so we had them call friends and all so we would get rid of it. We ended up eating that for the rest of the weekend! We had a great day and it was beautiful weather. The boys were enthralled with the big trampoline, esp Aaron. He wanted to copy all of Uncle Cody's tricks! Tyler loved the bunny and the dogs. Heather and Wilmer went riding on her motorcycles. I just sat back and relaxed. It was nice. The whole weekend was surprisingly relaxing and slow moving.

Circus

Miscellaneous Pictures of the Boys

We were able to go to a circus in June for the first time with the boys. Aunt Heather came with us. They had pony rides so the boys went on them and loved it. They liked the little petting zoo and seeing those huge elephants up close. As far as the circus itself- they weren't as enthralled and it was hard to keep their attention. We probably won't go to another one until they are older.

Landscaping

Landscaping


Memorial Day weekend was FINALLY nice and sunny outside! We were able to get a lot of landscaping done that we have been wanting to do. We put a flower bed in out back and redid the front. If you click on the pic you can see before and afters for the front of the house. the guy who lived here before us had lost interest in his yard for at least a few years. We are working very hard to bring it back to green and grassy! Also we are getting rid of a lot of ugly or dead bushes to replace with hopefully something better. We were also able to work on the pool more so when it warms up more, we can swim, and we were able to clean out the garage and park the car in there! So it was quite a successful weekend but mostly because we were able to do all this together and just hang out, relax, and get VERY sunburned!! Well, the boys didn't but Wilmer and I did!

Wilmer is 30!!!

Daddy's 30th Bday

We had a little party for Wilmer on May 23 for his 30th birthday! He is starting a whole new decade! It is quite scary to realize how fast time goes now! We have been out of school for over 10 years now and the first birthday I celebrated with him was his 20th! I made a cake for him and got a bunch of pizza and wings. Aaron was very eager to help Daddy open his presents and cards. He would tear open the card envelope, open it, and let the money fall to the ground as he scanned the card- then he would drop that on Daddy's lap and go for the next one. He didn't realize he left the best part on the ground! =-) It was nice to just have a relaxing evening celebrating and talking with our friends. Things have been so busy lately, we haven't had time to do any of that.

Family

Family

Wilmer was a groomsman in our friends' wedding in April. That is where this picture was taken. When I bought my dress I had no idea what color the girls would be wearing but it was just a little darker than Wilmer's vest so we matched! =)

Aaron is almost 3 1/2 but he acts so much older sometimes. The things he says or how he says them- you wonder where he picked up that and does he really know what it means! I mean, he just sounds so grown up with his talking now. It's too bad he's not old enough to go to preschool this year. He is dying to go to school. Everytime he sees a bus he says soon he'll be 5 and can go to school on the bus and learn lots of things! He is writing his name now- fairly legible. It takes about 2 lines to write 5 letters but at least he knows what they look like. I am so proud of him and his desire to learn. He is very smart and picks up on everything. He is quite the eavesdropper as well! =) He is pretty much potty trained and has been for some time now. He wears underwear even to bed and usually does pretty good.

Tyler- 18 month old, blue-eyed crazy child! He is NEVER still, even at night, he is kicking the bars in his crib as he turns over. He is much more outgoing and friendly than Aaron but he also does not mind if he wanders away and can't see us anymore, which is scary for me. This past month he finally started talking and it's like he just can't get enough. He has to try to say everything. He doesn't want to just say dada and mama, he wants to know the word for everything so he can say it. He feeds himself and tries to dress himself already. He is beginning to show interest in the potty more so hopefully we can start that soon and it will be successful so I will only have 1 in diapers in Novemeber. He climbs out of his crib so there is no containing him anymore. Nor is there any more sleeping if he isn't!!! =( Poor me! He really wants to sleep in a bed like Aaron's but I don't know if he will actually get any sleep. Not that he stays in his crib anyway though. We have to keep the front screen door locked cuz he will just go right out and play outside and I'll be looking for him all over! He's such a little stinker! Then he'll look at you with such an innocent little expression as if he never does anything! Ha- don't let him fool ya!
We were able to take David, Melisa and the girls to Strong Museum to see it. The girls really enjoyed everything. There are a few pictures with them. Next time we will be dragging Grandpa and Grandma along!

Wrestling Show

Wrestling


On May 17th we went down to PA to visit my family as well as to watch Cody and Stacey in a wrestling match. Melisa watched the boys so they had their first sleepover with Emily and Hannah. Wilmer and I went with my parents, David and one of his friends to the wrestling match. It was ... interesting. I prefer to watch Cody and Stacey wrestle- not really the others! =) If you click on the pic above you can see more pictures and videos of it. Ok you will notice there are more pics of these really really big black guys! Um yeah they were quite funny actually to watch...until one of them became close and personal. You will see a pic of the backend of one of them. That is because he came up into the bleachers chasing another wrestler and was wrestling right there! I thought he was going to fall on me and he weighed at least 400 pounds! I was crawling in Wilmer's lap trying to get away from them. Not onlt that but they stunk and were all sweaty! Then to top it off- suddenly I felt wet drops all on my face and arms! Ok to back up a little- in the ring this guy had been spitting up in the air- like that's cool I guess! So when I felt all this wet, you know what I thought it was. My dad said they broke a water bottle over each other's head and I hope and pray that it was it was!! Anyway, then we watched Cody in his match with 2 other guys. Then we watched Stacey in her match with another girl. Both of them lost but they both did very well. It was actually quite interesting to watch. I think next time I will bring Aaron and Emily. They will like watching I think. So enjoy watching the videos!

Baby update

So this little one is already causing all kinds of commotion and excitement! This is scary because Tyler was also a little stinker when he was inside and continues to be on the outside!! In the beginning of May, I was at work when I thought my water broke! Yeah, I was only 13 weeks pregnant then so that was scary- then when I saw no water- just ALOT of blood- I was really worried. To follow up that I began to have cramps and contractions by the time I got home. Luckily I only work about 10 minutes away. Wilmer called a friend from our church that lives near us to come stay with the boys and took me to the ER. This was about 10:30 at night. We got there and I got into a triage room right away where they took blood and asked a lot of questions. Then they sent us back to the waiting room to ...wait!! Of course- what else would you do in the ER!! Finally we were taken into another area where I got a bed to lay in at least and we both kinda were in and out of sleep because it was now about 1am. Finally a dr came to see me and she was actually a resident that had worked in the OB dept- thank God. She knew a little better what she was talking about. After MUCH prodding, 2 ultrasounds, an internal exam, a consult with another dr, and a few more hours- we were given a diagnosis. It was called a troubled miscarriage. The baby was fine- kicking and all- but the reason for the bleeding was that the edges of the placenta had pulled away from the wall of the uterus and curled up a little. They said it could stop or it could keep pulling away- they had no way of knowing or stopping it. So now we knew what the problem had been but could do nothing- except PRAY!! And we did and so did eveyone that we knew. I am now 16 weeks pregnant and have had no further problems! The baby is growing and kicking constantly. Luckily for me, I can't feel it yet! =) Thank all of you who prayed for us. Please continue to keep this pregnancy in your prayers- we have 5 more months to get thru!!

Another addition??

Yes there is another addition on the way. You might wonder where? I mean, we just got a nice new house that is very big! Oh maybe another rental property? Nope wrong guess- well...? Ok I will just tell you- Tyler gets to be a big brother in November! Yes we are 10 weeks pregnant and counting. We weren't going to tell Aaron until I start showing a lot more so he has something to put the information together with however, he saw the ultrasound picture we had to get done, so we told him. Now he alternates between telling us it will be a boy then a girl. But no matter what, he says Tyler will try to push the baby and sit on it so he will hold it and keep it safe! Sounds like he figured out how to be a big brother. Now too bad he won't practice on Tyler! So stay tuned for developments and remember we are the kind of people who like surprises so NO we will not be finding out the sex of the baby!

Aaron is 3!

Aaron's 3rd Bday

Aaron is 3 and I can't believe it has been that long since he was born. He loved his birthday and was happy to have a party "just like Tyler had". His friend, Brandon, came and they had a lot of fun even though it started kind of rough. Aaron took a nap while I finished decorating the cake and my mom was cleaning up. Then everyone started to come and the man of the hour was still sleeping away. So we had to wake him up which is not a good thing. Aaron likes his sleep and doesn't normally bounce awake like Tyler does. After some time though, he finally started playing and interacting with everyone so we did presents first, then cake. His first present was the truck Mack from the "CARS" movie. He wanted it out of the package but we said to open the others first. After each present he kept going back to Mack and wanted him open! He would have been happy with just that persent. But now he has so many cars and trucks we need a new toybox for them all. We got him a bicycle that looks like a dirt bike and he is trying to learn how to pedal now. Since we have a bigger house he has a little room to practice and Daddy will take him in our huge basement to ride until it gets nice outside. His cake was Lightning McQueen (which took me almost 2 hours to decorate) and he liked that. I asked him to pick which part of the cake he wanted to eat and what part do you think he chose? You'll have to see the pics to find out if you are right! After everyone left, my parents were still here, so we were just relaxing and talking them realized that no one had seen or heard from Tyler in a little bit. I found him at the dining room table, quiet as a mouse, stuffing his face with leftover cake that Aaron hadn't finished! He was very proud of himself and just kept grinning at us with frosting all over his face! It was pretty cute and you can't help but laugh at that! It was a great time. Also to top it off, Aaron didn't want to put on a pull up for bed, which he wears now only at bedtime. He wanted to keep his underwear on. So I decided to let him and I would just clean up the mess in the morning. But there was no mess and he was dry. He is doing pretty good on the potty training now and only occasionally has a mess usually at someone else's house. Thank goodness it is working so well because it saves a lot of money in diapers too!!

Grace Heidi Hale

We have another addition to our extended family. My brother, David, and his wife, Melisa, just had their third child and yup.. another girl!! Lucky him in about 12 years, right?? Her name is Grace Heidi Hale. As my sister, Heather, pointed out this is an appropriate name as her start to life was a little rough for everyone. Melisa had a fall on the ice about a week before the baby was born, which triggered some contractions on and off for a couple days. Who knows if this is actually why she was born early or what but she was due Feb 21 and Grace was born Feb 7. Thru some other trials and minor problems, it finally was time for the baby to be held up and admired for the first time. But instead she was quickly transferred to the baby table under the light and more people were called in and much activity was going on. The baby was not breathing!! I was travelling down with my dad from NY at this point and Heather texted me from the hospital room and told us to pray. It was SO scary and we were all crying and praying. Fifteen minutes after she entered this world, Grace took her first breath and was finally able to be hugged and loved by her anxious mommy and daddy! Her first day she didn't really make any noise but by the end of her second day, all worries were put to rest as she showed everyone that she really does have a good set of lungs! By God's grace, our little Gracie is now doing great and being well loved by both her big sisters! Click on the pic to see more.

Grace Heidi Hale

New Job

I started a job working 5 hours a night for 4 nights a week. I take catalog orders over the phone. It is not the most interesting job but it makes a little extra money to pay off our bills and gets me out of the house for a little while. It also allows Wilmer and I to "switch places". Have you ever wanted your spouse to know what you go thru at your job or home all day? Well, Wilmer does phone tech support so he is on the phone the majority of the day. I stay home with the boys and deal with them all day. So from 6pm to 11pm, we "switch". I am on the phone the entire 5 hours and Wilmer is with the boys (well they sleep half that time but still..) so we get to experience "being in the other's shoes" a little bit. I think it has actually helped each of us to understand the other a little more. Now, we are thinking of the possibility of getting another car also. We have been with only one vehicle for two years but it is getting difficult esp with gas prices so expensive, to be driving the truck exclusively.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Christmas pics 2007
We went to PA for Christmas. It was not a white one which is good and bad. Good for travelling but bad because if it's gonna be cold- it might as well snow and be beautiful! The kids had so much fun all playing together. We had no babies this year but David and Melisa are going to have another in Feb so next Christmas there will be another baby. I can't believe Christmas is over and it is already 2008! Time really does get faster the older you get. I think it should be faster when you are younger and slower when you get older! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and Happy New Year!
