4 weeks with Hollis

Some funny faces.

2 weeks old

Hollis has been working hard. At our 2 week check up he gained 18 ounces. That's a lot for a little guy. He is very healthy and growing right before our eyes.Hollis and his first big boy bath. He liked it so much he fell asleep. After the bath he slept for almost four hours straight.
Brother & sister love.

Life at a week old

Hollis likes to sleep and eat a lot.

Second walk in the National Park.

Hmm... what should I eat for dinner?

Finally!!!

My water broke on Mother's Day, so we decided to meet up with the aunties at the beach. This is my dream team, Jeremy, my mom and Aunty Heather. Each one of them gave me support and love so I could make it throuh the hardest, most amazing journey of my life. For that I will always be grateful.

It was a long labor, 23 hours. Jeremy worked some of his magic on me.

The slab for the shop is poured and we even have some grass growing now.

The parents to be, anyday.
