Tye & baby

Tye already loves his baby sis!

Okay...I couldn't have a completely uneventful pregnancy. I was heading down the stairs at my mom & dad's and tripped on my foot which ended up tangled underneth me. I had a sore foot but the baby was moving so I was not too worried. My doctor told me to go to labor & delivery to get monitored to be safe. Once there and hooked up to the monitor I started contracting every 2 1/2 to 4 1/2 minutes. I had seven in the first 35 minutes but could not feel them. An IV was started to give me a large amount of fluids in the first hour. Not too long after that I started to feel the contractions and they were not slowing down. I was given a shot to relax the smooth muscles which includes the uterus. That seemed to do the trick and I have been fine ever since.

Trip to Michigan

The Welton family

Chase Alan Anderson, our new nephew, was baptised while we

were visiting Easter weekend in Ludington, Mi.

Tye's NICU buddy, Cameron, came to visit us in South Haven. Marisa and my due dates were within a couple days, but Cameron was born at 29 weeks, a week before Tye. They are within a half of pound of each other and have both suffered from reflux. It is great to have Marisa....no one can truly understand unless you have experienced it!

Uncle Scott
Tye had a great time playing cars, rough housing, and riding around
in his Uncle's golf cart.

My favorite picture.
Taylor, Tye's cousin, can get the best smiles out of him.
She is always a huge help when we are visiting!



Uncle Rich & Aunt Tracey's boat
Tye is obsessed with all means of transportation these days, including boats!






Tye colored Easter eggs for the first time at his grandma's house. He was very
neat and cautious, the opposite of his cousin, Jordyn!

His mom got a ton of candy, bummer!

Tye's first Easter egg hunt at Oma's with Taylor,

Trevor, and Colten. He had to find all the

football eggs and caught on very quickly!

Our new nephew, Chase. Isn't he a cuttie?
