Welcome home Anniston

Well we came home on Tuesday afternoon from the hospital. Things are going as well as to be expected. Big brother is doing pretty well with the transition, except for a few tantrums here and there. Oh the joy of having a two year old at home! Here are a few pictures from the past couple of days.

She Has Arrived! Welcome Anniston Morgan Lee!

She surprised us early this morning and arrived about 23 days ahead of her due date (same as Grayson). We had a great day yesterday hosting a baby shower with the Santangelo's for Jill and Mike Clark. Stacie started having contractions about 9:00pm. By about midnight we knew it was time to go to the hospital. And at 3:41am today we welcomed Anniston Morgan Lee to the world! 6 pounds 8 ounces, and 19 1/2 inches long. Labor and delivery were VERY fast (again), and both ladies made it through very well. Anniston spent the day in NICU as a precaution and was able to join us full time at around 7:00pm. We're trying to eat and trying to rest now. More pictures to come very soon!

New Goal:

try and update the blog at least once a month. Sorry it has been awhile. You think it is bad now wait till number two comes along, but then again it will be the summertime soon and I will have more time, hopefully. Here are just a few pictures from the past month and some of the babies room.

Spaghetti, what spaghetti?

Grayson favorite place to play and eat snack...my lovely, well organized, kitchen pantry. He has just stuffed his mouth with mini Oreos...he is definitely my child!


He barricaded himself in the stools all by himself.

My friend Rachel and I. We are a week apart.

This is what happens when there is ketchup left on a plate

Babies Room

It is definitely not done. I don't have anything hanging up on the walls, no curtains yet, and we are still waiting on the dresser, but I thought I would share what we have so far. Yes, it is very pink...

On the wall are pegs to hang things from...I am thinking we will hang the letters of her name, no we are not sharing...mom

Close up of the bedding...flowers and butterflies

This is the book shelf my dad made

Look what I can do!

Grayson is learning more new things everyday, including new words, using silverware, opening doors, and...how to go down his slide all by himself!

Firefighter Grayson

So last weekend we went to a firehouse and got to show Grayson a real firetruck. He also got his own hat and sticker badge. He has really enjoyed wearing it around the house.

Here are just a few other pictures from the last couple of weeks.
