baby AJ is here!
we are so excited for our little asher jay gledhill to join our family!!! he was born thursday august 19th at 8:53 pm. he weighed 6 lb 9 0z and was a short 17 1/2 in long. i was induced at 36 weeks, 6 days because of preeclampsia. labor was just over an hour and relatively easy. aj has done remarkably well considering his early arrival. he has had no problems that usually come with babies being pre-term. we are so excited to have him home with us and have enjoyed every minute of our time with him! welcome to this world and to our home baby aj!

bad luck or goodluck???
my last 2 OB appointments i haven't had the greatest luck with driving. a month ago i got pulled over not once, but twice on the way there and the way home for expired tags. it wasn't like the tags were a month overdue, but over 6 months!!! oops on our part. it totally got overlooked. i'm just surprised we didn't get pulled over earlier! luckily i only got one $50 fine that won't go on my clean record!
on friday i had another appointment, luckily this time the kids got to stay home with daddy. i enjoyed my time with no kids, went to my appointment then ran errands. on my way home i got rear ended by a vietnamese lady who couldn't speak a word of english. well, i guess she could speak a few works. she said sorry about a dozen times, but had no idea what i was trying to say when i pulled out my insurance to show her. i was about to call my brother who speaks vietnamese, but then a cop pulled up and helped her get all of her info. i was a little worried she wouldn't have insurance and we'd get stuck paying the bill. luckily i got her insurance info, there no one was hurt and not much damage done, just a little hole and dent in my bumper.
so i'm a little scared to go to my next OB appointment. hopefully my driving experience doesn't escalate into something else!!!

razor fast
the boys have been riding their scooters almost every day the last month or so. they both love to be outside and love to go super fast! i've been terrible about taking pictures lately. luckily johne was around to snap a few shots! jack dressed himself, so i can't take credit for the sweat shorts with a polo or socks and crocs! he would wear his sweat or his mesh shorts every day if i would let him!
i love nate's cute little face under his helmet!
our neighbor has an owl on their fence. i think the boys think it's real. the head moves around and every time it looks at them they scream and run away!
we know jack's pouty face all too well! i wonder if he gets that look from me or johne?

baby boy
we are officially going to be the house boys and i have accepted the fact that i will always be outnumbered! i pretty much knew it was going to be a boy, but everyone else had some hope for me!! jack was the most disappointed. when our sonographer (anne) announced it was a boy, jack said "awwwwww, i wanted a girl baby"!!
everything looks healthy in our baby boy. anne said he's a very active baby. he could hardly sit still for her to get measurements. he also showed that he preferred his left hand. anne was willing to bet that we will have a left hander. his left hand was up at his face the whole time, sucking fingers and playing with his nose or mouth. i've read a few stats that show which hand babies prefer in utero is very likely to be the dominant hand, so we'll have to see in a few years! we are all very excited for this little boy to join our family, but need some help on the name. post comments with your suggestions!
ps. jack's name for the baby right now is robot!!
