Rosalyn Cecilia VanStrien is here!

At 9:31 pm on 7/12/08 our daughter was born!! Rosalyn Cecilia VanStrien came into this world as a challenge, but as a healthy beautiful little girl weighing in at 7lbs 7oz, and 19 inches long.

Mom had a difficult labor as it was decided to induce in the morning, and after that didn’t progress and after some unfavorable fetal heart beats, a c-section as performed instead. Mom is doing well recovering, with some soreness…but the “good stuff” helps with that!

We’ll very proud and happy parents and look forward to the road ahead!

2 Months

Alanna had her 2 month appointment on the 1st. She is quite different size wise from James. She weighed 13 lbs 3 oz and was 23.5 inches long. She is in the 97th percentile for weight and 95th for height. She lucked out on Tuesday because they didn’t have all of the immunizations so she has to go back this week to get three shots. Luckily she will be with the grandmas all week so she shouldn’t have any problems.

Happy Second Birthday James!

James turned two years old on Friday! We celebrated by getting out of work early and taking him to Chuck E. Cheese. James loved opening his birthday presents. He got toys for all the things he enjoys now including baseball, Curious George bubbles (for the tub), a toy bus, drums, Thomas trains and train set, an animal book, his first matchbox cars and a little leaps DVD games. James has his birthday party with family this weekend. Pictures coming soon!
