Pumpkin Patch 2009

On Sunday we went to our local pumpkin patch and had all sorts of adventures.

Our newly enhanced family

The Girls

Harper wore her little corn halloween costume b/c it was the only warm weather gear we had for Harper that was small enough to fit her.

Corn Maze!

Morgan riding the "horsey"... Morgan was VERY excited for this and chatted about her horsey ride all day on Sunday

Feeding the Animals

Halloween Party

On Saturday we attended a Halloween party... Morgan dressed up as an Iowa Hawkeye football player. VERY awesome costume to be wearing as we watched the Hawks pull off the last-second victory on Saturday night. I'm also including a picture of Jamie as Indiana Jones....or "Iowa Jones" as he morphed into by the end of the night.

Baby Mitchell is Here!!!

We received GREAT news this morning! Baby Mitchell Thomas Williams arrived early this morning!! Dana and Mitchell are both doing great. He's a healthy little boy and weighed just a little bit more than Harper at 8lbs 8oz. As you can see in the picture, Mitchell arrived with a head FULL of dark hair. We were impressed by all of Harper's blond hair, but she's got nothing compared to Mitchell!
Morgan can't wait to have Lydia introduce her to her new baby brother and I can't wait to cuddle my new little nephew. AND the girls-only club is officially broken for the Ptaceks ---- a family of 3 girls and 3 granddaughters - Grandpa Mark and Grandma Karen finally have a little boy in the family!!!

Harper is doing great - 12 days old already! Harper is becoming more alert and is awake a little bit more each day. She also is sleeping a little more each night- let's keep this trend up!!! Morgan continues to shower her new baby sister with lots of love and kisses. We couldn't ask for two more wonderful little girls.

Our Girls

Harper is one week old! Here is a hodge-podge of pictures from the last few days:

Morgan's New PJs

Morgan is getting spoiled ROTTEN - who knew she'd be showered with gifts for becoming a big sister...I guess it is a pretty big job! Grandma Karen brought Morgan some new PJs and Morgan modeled them for everyone to see.

Morgan Baking with Auntie EJ

Auntie EJ and Morgan made Halloween cut-out cookies and cupcakes. A little messy, but yummy and lots of fun.

Our Look-Alikes

I was putting Harper into her ducky sleeper that Morgan used to wear and I remembered taking a picture of Morgan in the same sleeper...I thought it would be interesting to compare the pictures and see how similar the girls look. The first picture is of Morgan, the next two are of Harper.

Harper Comes Home

Going home from the hospital

Morgan was very excited to see who we brought home.

Morgan and Harper

Here are some more pictures from the hospital. Everything is going great, we have two very happy little girls!

Harper Jo Lenehan

Baby Harper has arrived!

Harper Jo Lenehan
10/12/09 at 12:34pm
7 lbs 15.6 oz; 21 inches long

The delivery went very well and we are all doing great! We think Harper looks a lot like Morgan did when she is born, not to toot our own horns - but we make cute babies!!! Morgan LOVES her new baby sister. She knew exactly what to do when she arrived at the hospital, she hopped on the couch right away and grabbed the boppy pillow and was ready to hold her little sister. It was great to watch! We hope you all get a chance to meet our newest family member soon!
