a few more pictures

More pictures of Chloe's blessing. These are some of my favorites.

We've spent the last weekish up at my parents house visiting my sister, Becky and her boys. We really had a good time, minus the fact that we all got sick. Here's a few of the things that went on.

Here's Chloe being loved by her brother and cousins, James and John-Luke.

Little sleeping angel.

Chloe's 10 week picture.

Aunt Becky took the boys to the Symphonies' Christmas Concert.

Santa was there so Ryan got to see him for a second time. Becky said he really enjoyed the concert and especially the ride on the train to and from. Thanks Aunt Becky!

Blessing of Chloe

Just a few pictures from today. I'll post more about this later.

Chloe...

Chloe looks like she's sleeping in this pictures...but don't be fooled. She was just closing her eyes for a second. Really...it was around 10:00 at night and she was wide awake!

Ryan and Chloe hanging out.

 

We don't have very many pictures of Mike and Chloe so I made his sit down and take some a few weeks ago. I really like how they turned out.

My little girl is so beautiful. And...she's now sleeping 6 hours at night! Good girl too!

She's 8 weeks old now and I'm guessing a little over 9 lbs.

Festival of Trees-- tool related.

We went to the festival of trees this year with my mom. (I don't think I could've handled going with just the kids by myself.) Here are a few pictures of what we saw.

Ryan sitting on Santa's lap. He was very excited to tell Santa that he wants tools for Christmas. I thought he'd be scared but he got right up there. He was especially excited that Santa gave him "junk food."

 

Decorating a hat.

Ryan has a picture by this tree only because...notice in the back ground...a SAW!

After decorating hats and seeing Santa, we went in search of a tool tree. I promised Ryan that there would be one. Thankfully there were actually several. The coolest was called, "Grandpa's workshop." We spent 15 minutes looking at the tree and admiring all of the tools. All in all, a pretty good time was had by all.

This isn't at the festival of trees, but since I didn't take a picture of Chloe while we were there, I decided to throw something in at the end. Early morning Chlo-bug!

Chloe

6 weeks old yesterday! Wow, how time flies when you don't sleep! We love our little Chlo Bug.

Joy Moments

 Sometimes life is just so beautiful. I love my little boy. He makes life so happy and interesting!

Note: the past few weeks have been filled with more sleepless nights from Chloe and now Ryan has decided that naps are no longer for him. I am trying to find the humor in the small things because, if I didn't laugh....I think I would cry instead.

3 Weeks

Yesterday, Chloe turned 3 weeks! She is such a sweet baby. Morning is her best time. She is happy, content and very peaceful in the early morning hours. Although, at night she seems to want to be awake for a good 3-4 hour period and sadly, she is pretty much never happy at night. It seems like she gets a stomach ache just at night! Ryan still loves to hold her and talks to her a lot.

2 weeks

Last Tuesday, Chloe turned 2 weeks. Here is her picture. Isn't she such a cutie!

Leaves are falling all around....

 We went to the park today and played in the leaves. It was such a beautiful day!

Of course Chloe slept through most of this beautiful day....

More Baby Girl

I've been asked to post more pictures by some family so here are a few more.

I love little baby feet.

Grandma holding Chloe Audrey. (I still haven't really decided on the name!)

Here's a close up of my little sweetness sleeping.

HOME

We are home from the hospital....actually we came home yesterday. Things are going good. Chloe sleeps a lot and then wakes up and has a feeding frenzy of at least an hour. Hopefully she's gaining some good weight.

 Ryan came home today. He was very anxious to hold his baby sister. Here are a few pictures of them together. He kept saying, "She's so nice and soft. I love her hands." He studied her hands for a long time.

a STAR is born!

Introducing Chloe Audrey Roscheck (Most likely)

Minutes after she was born, getting all her vitals checked.

Labor and delivery went great. I feel human still.

Our little family, minus Ryan. Ryan is spending some quality time with Edpa.

More Random Pictures

 Maybe because baby will be here soon and I know I won't be capturing as many pictures of Ryan, I've been on a picture overload.

Playing in an old box.

Reading his tool box outside (he takes it with him everywhere). 

Playing with his tools.

Just being darn cute!

Cold Outside

Now that is it cold outside, Ryan wants to play outside. 

So we went outside yesterday and played...then it started to rain on us so we did have to come back in.

Sorry for the blurry pictures...Ryan is a mover and it's hard to capture him.
