Baby Update

We are at Iowa City going through labor for our second child. Here is a current update...

10:20 water broke. 5cm
12:30 9cm
1:00 epidural given just in time

Kelley is resting well right now. So far, the process has been good. If anyone is thinking about seeing us in Iowa City, please do not. Due to the flu, only siblings and grandparents are allowed to visit.

Emma's First Dentist Appointment

Kelley just sent me a text with this imagine. Emma is having her first dentist appointment today. We've heard horror stories of scared kids once the tools enter their mouths. Emma is laying there happy as a clam. I'm really proud of her. She did the same thing with stitches. She is a tough cookie.

Superhero Butterfly

Emma decided to go as a superhero butterfly for Halloween. It was a cute outfit but several people couldn't figure it out. To Emma, it made perfect sense.

Kelley's Doctor Appointment

We took Emma with to the doctor appointment today. Emma got into anything she could.

Our Little Skeleton

Emma loves her new pajamas...and yes, they glow in the dark.

Open House

Hard to believe it, but last night we attended Emma's first open house to see her classroom and meet her teachers. Emma's preschool teachers said she was doing very well and playing with others (good thing for Emma or should would have been in some trouble). We got to see some of Emma's artwork and even got to meet one of Emma's best friends at school, London. Emma talks about London a lot and we were anxious to meet her. London was a very nice little girl and her parents seemed very nice as well. Turns out that London goes home and talks about Emma just as much.

Emma loves preschool and has no problem leaving us for school. We're proud of her and enjoy hearing what she learns.

Keith Van Horne

We got to meet former Bear Keith Van Horne before the game.

Bears!!!

We are tailgating for the Bears vs. Lions game. We found rooftop tailgating. Very cool.
