Cody's 2 week stats


...a week late.

Last Thursday Cody had his 2 week check-up...

at birth
9lbs 5oz
20.5 inches
at 2 weeks
10lbs 11oz
22 inches

Grow Cody, grow! =)

These 3 Girls...


Are amazing in every way!


They came and visited us at the hospital after Cody was born.


They suprised me with a small family "welcome Cody" party. It was awesome! Luau themed to go with the whole Cody surfer thing...


And they have shown their love in millions of other little ways. But, most importantly, they are my very dearest friends, I love them and am so very thankful to have them in my life! It's so nice to have "family" when you are away from your family.


Thanks girls for everything - Cody related and otherwise. YOU ARE THE BEST!


Love Always,

Steph =)

Cody in Action

This is for our far away family and anyone else that wants to watch Cody in action...


Nolan's Family

Mommy top left, then Daddy, Nolan, Matt & Cody is top right.

Nolan drew this picture the day Cody was born - before we knew he had so much hair!

Then he wrote all our names on a post-it, which I stuck to the picture.


I *heart* it.

Thank You...

for everything, Grandma/Mom/Mamasan!






We love & miss you!
Love, Team Armadillo

In Other News...

Matt is going to play the cello!


We, very fortunately, still have an amazing school music program where we live. In 4th grade, the kids can begin taking strings... Matt decided he wanted to give it a try, and we all decided the cello would be really cool. We are renting one from a local string shop, and basically, he is getting cello lessons 4 times a week (1/2 hour Mon-Thur) for $33 a month. Not too shabby!

Anyhow, this is after the first day of "class". He was so excited to show us what he learned.

I apologize for the video being sideways, but I couldn't resist.

Nolan is just too funny! (he thought I was taking pictures - and didn't know I was actually shooting video).


Can't wait to hear more, Matt! =)

Cody, Cody, Cody

A few more pics for the fam...



Notes on the Cody bug... practically perfect in every way

Adorable
Promp (arrived a mere 4 hours from our arrival at the hospital to be induced)
Good sleeper
Sweet, sweet disposition
Funny (seriously makes the cutest faces)
I think he might be half vaccuum cleaner
