Guess Who?

We think that Elsa definitely resembles her big brother James. One of these pictures is Elsa and one is of James.....

Family Pics

Introducing the Weiland family of four, including James meeting Elsa for the first time.

Welcome Elsa

Ryan, Courtney & Big Brother James welcomed Elsa Grace Reinke Weiland on March 12, 2010. Elsa weighed 8lbs 10oz and was 19.5 inches long. Mom and baby going well. More to come...

Last Months As An Only Child

James turned 19 months this past weekend. The pictures chronicle his past few months, the last of his "only child" status. Hard to believe we started this blog for him more than two years to track Mom's pregnancy, James's birth and growth. He is still measuring tall and thin and is happy little guy. He is our little doer and loves to be a "big help". While his palate has become a little more discriminating he remains a great eater. He is very much into dipping - ketchup, marinara, ranch... He loves to read and adores Daddy's tools. He recognizes the difference between mitre saws and routers and knows which tools are sharp and which are OK. He doesn't like wearing socks or pants but has learned that being "pantless" is only OK at home.
Tomorrow we welcome James's little brother or sister and this blog will continue with highlights of our new family of four!
