GO RAYS!!!

We've definitely caught the fever . . . we are so excited for our Tampa Bay Rays making it to the World Series!! It's pretty exciting- the whole town is into it. So, we got Austin a jersey and hat and his daddy couldn't be more proud. Here are some pics

Scott got out the tee we got for Jackson a couple years ago and Austin went to town. It's all downhill from here. :)

Babies, babies, babies

Introducing Jade Elaine Barthelemy and Gregory Cole Sager ...

Over the past three weeks, we have welcomed to the world two precious, precious babies from some very special parents.

The first arrival was Jade Barthelemy. She was born on September 22, and was 8 lbs, 1 oz!! Austin went with us to the hospital and while he had no clue what we were doing there, he enjoyed playing with the balloons and stuffed animal we brought for the baby. Jade is simply beautiful and mommy and daddy are doing great. Congrats Ryan and Lisa!!

Proud daddies!

The second arrival came just a couple days later, my cousin Cole. (Actually, these two babies had the same exact due date!) Cole was born on September 24, and was 8 lbs, 11oz!!! We got to visit him a couple weekends ago. He is the sweetest little thing and such a good sleeper! Austin was around Cole much longer than Jade and pretty much ignored him. I held Cole for HOURS, and Austin would just stop by and see me from time to time, study Cole for a minute, say "baby" and then walk off and go play. He just really wasn't that interested, which I guess is good. I'm afraid his tune might change when the baby is at our house and doesn't leave.

Reading to Austin while holding the baby . . . I think I can handle it!!

Speaking of that--we have an announcement too! We will be welcoming Baby Boyd II to our home next spring! BBII is due May 4, and we are SO excited. I am almost 13 weeks and besides being CRAZY sick for the entire 1st trimester, things are going really well! Pictures of my ultrasound to come . . .
