Cole Austin Stinson Arrives 11/12/10

Cole is finally here-we checked into the hospital at 1:30pm on Friday and he was born at 6:28pm-he was 7 pounds 9 ounces and 20 inches long-he is a sweet baby-he has been a great sleeper so far and we are crossing our fingers it lasts. Duke has been awesome and is really enjoying having a little brother-he walks around the house saying "Cole Cole"-it is so cute! So the brotherly love has already started. He also tries to share his toys with Cole by dropping them into his pack and play. So far so good and we are enjoying out family of 4.

More to come....

Duke and Chucky Cheese

Yeah!!!

Check out my new cool hair-mommy did it!

I took Duke to his 15 month check-up this week and he is 33 1/2 inches and 28 1/2 pounds. She said he look great and healthy-poor little guy had to get 3 shots including the flu shot. He is starting to walk around more and more and goes really fast when he uses his walker.

We are getting ready for the new baby and can't believe he will be here in less then 7 weeks. I am going to be 34 weeks on Monday. Wow, time is flying by. I know it is not just going to be a shock for us but I wondering how Duke is going to take having a baby in the house, he is so use to being the only one, good thing is he is still too young really to know what is going on and I am sure when he is older he will not even remember what is was like not to have his brother. Here are some pictures from the past few weeks.

Pool time with daddy

Wow, we have had quite a busy summer-We went to Hawaii in July which was fun and have been busy the rest of the summer working on the house. The baby will be here at the beginning of November so we are trying to get everything done before then. Duke has been swimming in the pool everyday and is doing awesome, he is quite the little swimmner. With the weather being colder then normal we have not been to the beach much but have been really enjoying our pool. Duke is taking a few steps and standing well but is not walking yet, lets just hope he starts before #2 arrives. He is also talking up a storm but most the time we are not quite sure what he is saying. Here are some pictures from this summer adventures.
