A week of firsts

We had such a fun week! It started on Monday with a visit from Auntie Scarlet! Justin, Theresa, and Blake came up to our house to see Scarlet and she was introduced to her two little nephews. It was a great visit, and we are excited for the boys to meet their Uncle Jake!


Wednesday brought Trey's first road trip and our trip to the NCAA men's basketball first round playoffs! Grandma Lo, Grandpa Mike, and our family loaded up the suburban and headed off to Portland to watch UW and Gonzaga as well as the other teams playing there. Trey did so well during his first road trip and we were SO lucky to have such awesome Grandparents to make the trip with and watch the little guy while we were at the games.



And...I've saved the very best first for last...While making wrust at Grandma Li and Grandpa Terry's house, we were treated to TREY'S FIRST SMILE!!!! He is 5 weeks old and continues to grow and change. We weighed him on Sunday, and he was up to 11 lbs. Yey!!!

3 weeks old!
















Blinn and I have a 3 week old son! Every Sunday we can't help but look at the clock and remember what we were doing on February 15. Blinn is back to work full time and my mom is staying with us this week to help out. It has been great having her here! Not only does she snuggle, spoil and change Trey's diapers, she's also really helped ease the transition of not having Blinn around during the day. Trey and I are looking forward to enjoying some March Madness together soon. Let's go Dawgs! ; )
Mom and I took Trey to get weighed today and our little guy (pun intended) is at 9 lbs 15 oz! He's one healthy boy! The nurses that saw him said how he was "all boy" and what a "big guy" he was. He holds his head up on his own very well, knows my voice and I think Daddy's too, eats VERY well (we call him the TERacuda), is okay with bath time as long as he has a warm washcloth on his tummy, and he does a million other things I'm not thinking of at the moment. Bottom line is he is well loved, growing, healthy and ours. We're very blessed!
