A couple of "favorite" moments came recently...




Below, Will's first "on camera" smile...whether it is gas pains or a smile at this point we don't know, but either way it warms your heart.



And (below) one of Cody's favorite moments so far, when Will strained to crank his head around when he heard Cody talking, and then just looked eye to eye for a couple of minutes...WOW moment for Dad!

More good friends visiting us at home...thanks for bringing dinner for us everyone!!!

Kira and Good friend Kelly with Will...above
#2 on the way, congrats Matt and Kelly!!!
Joey, Lehua and Micah...

Micah, who pronounces "Will" with a southern accent, couldn't have been cuter...until he kissed will on the head

Finally home

Above is proof the sling works

"This is amazing!" - Dad






Coming Home with Will






All geared up...doing his final dance in the hospital


Homecoming outfit (thanks Nicole and Mike!!)

We soaked up time with family while in the hospital too...

Uncle Ty and Aunt Carlee...thinking "should we give this a try soon" perhaps?

Grandma Kath above

Grandpa Doug above...some one on one time


Wild uncle Tom who can't wait to take Will snowmobiling, racing in the Porche GT3, water skiing, jeeping...I guess we better get this kid a good helmet

Will is Doug and Kathy's first grandchild...they have been asking us for one for, ummm..7 years

Peter and Bethany dropped in for a visit...and generously fed the hungry giant Cody with a Chipotle burrito, thanks again!!!

Peter and Bethany, the burrito people...


Mmmm...the burrito

Jacquie, Niya and Ivy dropped by to introduce themselves to Will

Thanks for bringing ice cream Niya!!!

Our 5 days in the hospital

Did someone say that this woman just labored to 9.5cm's, then had a major surgery...I can't imagine how beautiful she is on an average day.






Above, grandma Kathy and grandpa Doug adore Will through the nursery window


Dad participated in Will's first bath





We checked into the hospital on Wednesday night at 7:45 pm, and stayed until Monday afternoon and let Kira recover from the abdominal delivery - and to take advantage of the great nursery...yeah, the one we swore we wouldn't use!!! We took advantage of the overnight care to catch up on some rest. We had some of the fun too - first bath with dad, first time Will grasped Dad's finger while sleeping (a wow moment for Cody), and much more.
