Me and Baby Brother


This was Rhys' home in the Special Care Nursery and Winchester Hospital. All told, he spent 18 days there.


Here is the little fella strappin' in for his ride home. He was breaking the scales here at a whopping 5 pounds 7 ounces.



Nik waking up to the newest bundle of joy in the house.


Unfortunately, the experience has caused some regression on Nik's part as you can see here...



.....and here


To take Nik's mind off of things, we took him to the fair. This was as close as he could get to the rides. Both attempts to ride the train were met with tears and screaming.


Rhys loves keeping his arms above his head while he sleeps.


Are horizontal stripes slimming? I can never remember.


Loungin'


He's so tiny, he makes ME look big.


Meet Mr. Tyler Prevost, he's been tearing it up for about 4 months now. Sleeps through the night too.....showoff.




Finally, some video of lip smacking good times at the dinner table.

Why can't we be friends?

We are very sorry for the prolonged absence. But as some of you know, we've been preoccupied with some big news. Let's get to the picshas!


Nik loves to wear his Elton John Glasses during breakfast.


Easter morning arrived with the beloved Elmo. Honestly, I think they embedded a chip into his brain that would not let his parents rest until Elmo was under our roof.


Nik cleaned himself up, found his Easter sweater and got to work on his basket.


And by get to work, I mean cover his head in green confetti.


When you're 18 months old, this is really the only way to travel.


This photo was taken about 50 hours before......


these little feet entered the world.


Rhys Carter Dhingra. Born April 19th at 4:14 AM. He weighed 5 lbs. 1 oz.


Our latest tax write off enjoying his first bottle.


At first Nik didn't seem bothered by Rhys moving in on his turf.


But he soon needed to lean on his friend Catherine for emotional support.



He quickly warmed to the news


And we were ready to go back and see Rhys as a family.


Nik made one quick run for the door, but we were able to convince him to stick around.


And, by the looks of it, things will work out just fine.
