The kids all pooped

Originally uploaded by daniel.roop.

It has been a few weeks since Jeni and I have posted but I just uploaded some photos so I figured I would give everyone an update.

Brendan turned 2 months old today! I can’t believe it has already been 2 months. We have been through a lot. His first cold, his first bump on the head, his first hard stool. He is getting old, and in a few weeks we will have another first, his first day away from mommy and daddy all day. He will be starting day care on March 1 (for a half day) and full time starting March 5.

But let’s not dwell on the future, tomorrow is exciting because it is his first round of shots. So I am going with Jeni to his doctor’s appointment to keep her strong. Wish us luck, I am sure Brendan will do fine, it is Jeni I am worried about.

Anyways, sorry about the few and far between posts. We have more pictures on the camera and as soon as I can get to uploading them I will.

Hello Everyone. Long time no post. Brendan has been doing well and to show him off, here is his first video EVER!!!!!, just press the little play triangle 😉

Okay Okay, First off thank you to everyone from our family, friends, and Soul-House…(which I guess goes under friends, but I felt you deserved your own special category). You all have been extremely helpful in making this transition to parent hood as managable as possible.

Now that I have offended someone…I posted more pictures of Brendan. For those who didn’t notice, I had already posted christmas photos but forgot to make a post. We hope you enjoy all the new photos and as you will probably notice, Jeni did a whole photo shoot with Brendan in his gator outfit on game day. As you can imagine Jeni was thrilled at the outcome and Brendan was just sad the Knights are no good ;-).

To appease the crowd, I have uploaded pictures of Brendan. If you click on the Photos – Pregnancy section to the right it will take you right to them.

On December 18, 2006 at 4:23pm Eastern Standard Time, Brendan Casey Roop was born 7lbs 8oz, 20.5 inches at Winnie Palmer Hospital.

Congrats to JT you were right on on weight and day. Everyone was hovering around the weight, and my mom (Meg Johnson) was closes on the hours to medication. Jeni went just about 11 hours (because that is how long it took to get admitted). I have to go help with the baby, but I will have pictures posted some time today. And we will do the last Count Down to Brendan podcast within the next day or two.

Thanks everyone for all your support up till this point.

Sorry we haven’t blogged in awhile. Jeni ad I have been busy trying to get everything ready. We believe she is having braxton (sp?) hicks contractions now. So it shouldnt be too much longer. Assuming e aren’t at the hospital we plan on doing another pdcast tomorrow night.

Joyce showed me this today, and I am inspired. Hopefully I won’t push Brendan too hard to be like this.

Hello everyone. After many hours of hard labor, and then deciding to throw out all my work and just hack something together. I present to you the Baby Pool. All those programmers that read this will cry as they look at this and see what I may or may not have done. Basically I copied and pasted alot of stuff instead of actually making it part of the wordpress blog I use.

To those of you who the previous paragraph was jiberish….Enjoy the Pool. It is just for fun, we are not doing any money stuff, but enjoy. I have put my guess down.

This past weekend Jeni and I went back to thanksgiving with my leesburg family and her family. It went really well thanks to the hard work of all the moms putting together very tasty dishes. Check out my flickr page to see the pictures. We also took some pictures of preggers (thanks for the nickname Russ). So be sure to click on the pregnancy link in the menu.

Also for those who look forward to hearing the heavenly sound of jeni and my voice. We still haven’t recorded an episode of “Countdown to Brendan”, but we plan on doing it in the next two days so check back often.

Happy Thanksgiving to all

Two Doctor Visits, Two Weeks, Two Recordings…it’s take two

Sorry it took so long to get this to you guys. Happy Thanksgiving.
