We're getting there....


Since Brenner's arrival, Weston has been pretty aloof about the whole situation. We have had a few bouts with jealousy, but overall he just seems to carry on as if nothing has changed. Yesterday, we had a major breakthrough during Brenner's afternoon feeding. While I was holding Brenner, Weston grabbed a paci and brought it over to give to his brother. This was one of the first brother to brother interactions and my mom was fast enough to catch it on camera.(we had attempted a photo shoot a few minutes earlier.) As you can see from the picture, Weston actually put the paci closer to his eyes rather than his mouth, but hey I'll take what I can get. It's a start, hopefully they will be best friends in no time.

Four Generations


We are so excited that Nevin's grandparents were here in the US for Brenner's arrival. Today they came with Nevin's parents to visit us in the hospital, while here we took a lot of cute pictures. It was really sweet to see four generations of their family together. It was also a little bittersweet for me, it made me realize how much I wished my Grandma Terry could have seen my children. She would have been so happy and probably made a funny comment on how I need to cut my hair when she saw me.
Above is one of my favorite pictures from the day.
