Always fun when Jay is in town....and Aubrey Too!

So along with the surprise birth of Wyatt, Ethan had been planning another surprise for Ashley....he decided to fly Aubrey and Jay here from California to see the new addition! I'll admit...I got caught....again! It used to be that no one could ever surprise me because I am such a snoopy pants.
Jay and Courtney had a lot of fun together and became real playmates. Just too bad that they won't live close to each other growing up.
Jay is a very happy and pleasant little guy. He has an infectious laugh and a "deep-throat growl" that is so funny! There was never a dull moment while he was around!
I think the most interesting thing about Jay is his total fascination for electronic gadgets. Loves the phones, remote controls, watching videos of himself and looking at pictures on the camera. We could hardly get him to pose for a picture because as soon as he saw the camera he wanted to look at it.
Surprises come in many sizes. This past week our family had a mini surprise in Wyatt, a small surprise in Jay and a marvelous surprise with Aubrey! Thanks Ethan!

And still another.....Miracle!!!!

Surprising us all......on September 21st 2009, little Wyatt Ethan Felix decided he wanted in on the fun and was tired of being inside his mom's tum-tum! He didn't take too long to get here and was actually a good size baby for being 5 1/2 wks. early.

Ashley did great through the whole process with Ethan right by her side. I was lucky enough to be there for the whole thing to witness a true miracle. It was beautiful and a very special night...or early morning (12:46 a.m.)
He weighed 5 lbs. 9 oz. and as of this posting is still in the NICU at our local hospital. Each day brings progress and Ashley's "Kangaroo Time" with Wyatt is helping her to stay emotionally attached to her little one.
We are all truly blessed to have another one enter our family and look forward to watching him grow and to see Ethan & Ashley love and nurture this little guy.

Another Miracle!

August 19th, 2009....little Azely Marie joined our happy family! She came a little late and so we are all thrilled that all went well for Megan and Jaxon and Azely. She is a precious little jewel and I claim it's because her middle name is the same as mine. Mother and daughter are doing great and Daddy has been so good to take extra care and time with Big Sister Courtney. Courtney loves her new play mate and that "she is tiny" and "Courtney is getting bigger". Another wonderful miracle. Now it's Ethan and Ashley's turn...............
