One month old and counting



Time flies when you have two . . . Gideon turned one month old last week! I can't believe it . . . but I did remember to take a picture. So this is the comparison of the one taken at 5 days and one at 1 month. He weighs over 11 pounds already and is starting to sleep 5-6 hours at night!! (Which means I am, too!!!!)

Pam's wedding --Tyler's Lacrosse Game

Our handsome Gideon . . . looking very serious. I think he is wondering why I put the effort into putting his suit back on just for a picture. I tried to explain that the wedding day was a blur and we didn't get any pictures of just him and hardly any of the family and I dont know if he will fit into it on Sunday since he is growing like a weed!!!


Pam is married!!! I'm only posting this because Pam looks so great and Jen and Mindy, too. I should not be so vain that I don't want a picture of me 2.5 weeks post postpartum on the internet. So I'll get over it and post it anyway . . .
The beautiful bride and her brothers . . . and her husband :) Notice how Nate and Ryan don't really smile, Daniel has a smirk, not really a smile, and Tyler is faking it and thinking the photographer is annoying (actually they are probably all thinking that!) Saturday we went to Tyler's lacrosse game at Dordt, he scored, they won and we had fun!! I've never watched lacrosse before, but it wasn't too hard to catch on. It is a team sport with little 'traditions' like raising your sticks in a huddle, doing a "RA RA" cheer for the other team, fans, and ref at the end of the game, and riding a stick horse in your undies the first time you score. Interesting !?!?!?

Gideon and Grandmas

Grandma Postma was in MI. It is bedtime . . .


my mom was here for 6 days to help with Briella. Briella really enjoyed Grandma which helped me a lot since I couldn't lift her and didn't give her as much attention as she usually gets.

Precious little boy!!
