It has been a very busy two weeks. Ryan was baptized on Saturday June 25th and I have lots of pictures, but my memory card says it is damaged. I feel bad that I am not updating the blog like I did for Colin, but two little ones is much different than one! If I can recover the pictures I will certainly attempt to get caught up.

Matt's parents and sister came to visit this past weekend and meet Ryan. He must really love them, because he allowed us to sleep from 11-5 two nights in a row. After Grandma and Grandpa left he turned back into a normal newborn. We are getting 4 hour stretches of sleep, which is pretty good. Colin is doing great with Ryan and is a big help. He is going to be a wonderful big brother.

We have been blessed with family and friends helping these first two weeks, so a big thanks to all of you.

Our New Addition

On Wednesday June 15, 2011 Ryan Joseph Steele entered the world abruptly at 8:07am at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. He was 7lbs 3oz and 19.5 inches long. Matt and I are so happy that we have another healthy boy. Ryan already loves the pacifier which has saved me already. The nurses keep talking about a zombie stage that the baby will go in because he will be so tired from the delivery, Ryan is no where close to that. He is very alert and enjoys being held. Ryan is just a few days early, his due date was June 21, 2011

Colin is very excited about being 4 years old and a big brother. Colin continued to tell us that is was a boy and he just knew it, well he was right.

One of my first moments with Ryan.

Colin really warmed up to Ryan and tried to tickle him. He wants to know when we get to keep him? Ryan and I will be coming home on Friday, June 17th.
