Health Happenings

So, 2011 is the year my body has decided to go bonkers on me. It's been one thing on top of another. Despite it all and the challenges it has presented our family, I am thankful that all of these issues have been temporary and not chronic. I can't imagine what it would be like to live with an illness or pain every day of your life.

January: Timmy's birth via c-section
February: Bronchitis/pneumonia
March: Fell and hurt my back
April: Gall bladder attack
June: Gall bladder will be removed

There's a month missing in there....May. I hope we don't have to fill it with anything besides regular old doctor appointments! ;)

Strong Museum with Uncle Aaron

On Monday, we visited the Strong Museum of Play in Rochester, New York. It is amazing! We were thrilled to be joined by Uncle Aaron.
Hannah had some quality time getting to know Uncle Aaron. It was so cute to see her run up and grab his hand to drag him to another exhibit.


Timmy just hung out in his stroller the whole time. He was a cooperative little guy which made it even more enjoyable for us. Hannah has asked about every hour since we've been home when can we go back to the Strong Museum. I wish we had something like this near us!

Easter with the Coddingtons

For Easter this year, we visited the Coddington side of the family. We loaded up the minivan and headed off to Rochester, New York. Hannah had been anticipating the trip for over a month and was so excited that it had finally arrived. She was amazing in the car...guess she's used to road trips by now :)

First things first--coloring Easter eggs with PaPa! Hannah had so much fun and enjoyed having blue hands for a few days.Timmy's snuggling with Grandma JuJu.
Great Grandpa enjoyed meeting Timmy and watching Hannah whirl through the house like a bundle of energy.Great Grandma loves holding babies. Timmy seems pretty content in her arms.Uncle Aaron and Aunt Lisa meet little Timmy.Mrs. Olsen meets Timmy. She was tickled to spend time with the little ones.And a family picture :) Everyone's smiling!!

April Update

The kiddos continue to grow like weeds! Timmy turned 3 months old on April 12th. It is just amazing how quickly he is changing! He can hold his head up on his own now and loves his Bumbo seat so he can observe the world around him.Hannah sleeps with "Stripey" every night. She got to pick him out from our Santa visit to the mall in December with all of our friends from church. She has been in love with that little kitty ever since.
Hannah's friend, Mason, turned FIVE this month! It's amazing how quickly all of these children are growing up and becoming so independent. Many of our friends' children will be attending kindergarten in the fall. So hard to believe!
Timbo is such a happy baby these days. Thank God for blessing us with Prevacid! I think having that month of constant crying and screaming has made us appreciate Timmy's smiles even more. Each one is a gift from God and we certainly don't take them for granted now!

Hannah won't let Timmy steal the show. She wanted to show everyone how she can twirl in her Easter dress.

Timmy loves to watch Hannah. He can track her a mile away. She's been a big help with the cooking lately. Well, kinda. Everything takes longer to make and there tends to be a bigger mess to clean up afterwards, but it's fun bonding time. I've also found that involving her more in making the meals makes her more excited about trying new things and she tends to eat a little more of it.
