Home At Last

We made it home this week.  It is nice to sleep in our own beds.  Ruxin has had some good nights and some bad nights.  The first night was a little rough but he has been getting so much better.
Nicole is starting to feel better.  She has been taking walks to the end of the street and back to help get her back in shape.
Warren had meetings all week.  So between work and family it was full.
Cooper and Allie came over on Saturday and had a good time with Ruxin.  Allie said that he has decided that she likes Ruxin now.  She is getting huge also.  Cooper finally got his birthday presents so he spent must of his time playing with his new lego stuff.
Nicole’s mom came down a couple of days and made us some lasagna and oatmeal cake.  Misty and Brex also came down to see Ruxin.  It was fun to see Brex with Ruxin.

Ruxin Is Here

Ruxin Dee Smith is here.  He was born at 7:50 am on September 21, 2012.  Is was 5 pounds 8 ounces and was 17 and a half inches long.

Long legs.  Nicole’s first comment was that they were “runner’s legs".”

Ruxin and Mom

Warren’s job is to “burp” Ruxin.

Ruxin’s doctor said that he needed to have “tummy time” to help with his development.  Ruxin doesn’t like it too much but he looks cute that is for sure.

Ruxin loves the blanket that Grandma Sandy made for him.

Cooper and Allie Mae came down with Melissa to see Ruxin.  Cooper and Allie have been a little “sickly” the last few days so we took the precautions so that they were able to see Ruxin.  They are excited to have a new brother.

Coopers birthday was on the 20th of September and Nicole’s is on the 24th of September.  We should have a busy birthday week now.  Melissa joked that we should legally change Allies to the 22nd so that we can just get them all out of the way.

All is well though.  Ruxin is doing very well and Mom and Dad are excited to have him.

New Blog

With Nicole being pregnant it has been decided that we would do a new blog to follow our families events.  Cooper and Allie are excited to have a new brother and we want everyone to share in our excitement.  Thanks!
