Never too Hot!!!

All winter long, the fuzzy slippers did not leav e their bedrooms. Grace caught sight of Dora the other night and she has been wearing them ever since. Today was 95degrees and very sticky. And of course, Cooper had to follow suit.

Grady was mellowing in his carrier. He is resting the day when he has to live up to his older brother and sister.

Big Sis!!

This is the most relaxed Grace has been while holding Grady! The smile tells it all!

All the practice with a plastic doll has made it easier for Grace to hold the real thing.

She does keep Maureen and I on our toes, she lets us know each time Grady is crying or fussing.

She is a big help!

Sleep is always good!!!

As much as Grace and Cooper do their very best to wake Grady up, the kids loves to sleep. Life is great at the Engelbert House. We are all settling into our roles.

Three's a Crowd????

We would have to say that Grady seems content with his new surroundings. He handled a house full with no problems. Nana and Papa came over for a visit last night. Maddie was brought along to help entertain the troops. She and Grace did a number on Grace's room. Cooper has become quite enamored with Josh. As the saying goes "many hands make light work".

Luckily we have a big enough chair to hold all three of them. Grace thinks that she needs to hold "her" baby all the time. We keep reminding her that Grady is not going anywhere and she will have lots of chances to hold him.

We are reminding Cooper that he needs to be much quieter, Grady does seem to sleep through just about anything!

Home from the hospital!

Maureen and Grady came home today and they are resting comfortably...

Cooper did manage to just about tackle Maureen, ouch!!!

Grace is trying to help anyway she can, lots and lots of questions!

The Big Day!!!

Grace and Cooper got their "little" brother this morning at 8:33AM. Grady David Engelbert weighs 6LBS 13 oz and is 20 inches long!!! Maureen is doing fantastic!!!

Life on the Lake!

Grace and Cooper could think of no better way then to spend Father's Day with their, Baca on "his" lake!

Unfortunately, Papa was stuck in Texas, so we could not get to see him.

The water temperature has finally gotten warm enough so Dad can tolerate the many swims by Grace. She is our resident fish!

Cooper did manage to enter the lake, he is not as daring as his sister.

If only water did not have to splash on his face!

Grady, the one we are all anxiously awaiting, should be here by next Wednesday, July 11.

Maureen is going to do her best to convince Doctor Lucas to move things up to tomorrow.

We hope all of our friends are having a super summer!
