Baby Dylan - 5 wks old today

Although every baby is different and Matt and I certainly do not proclaim ourselves to be baby experts, we have put together a mental list of the good, the bad and the "thank goodness someone invented this" for our first few weeks as new parents. A few things we are thankful for is his Binky (aka pacifier), his bouncer chair, womb bear, & gas drops. Hopefully we will remember these important baby necessities I have mentioned and that it may help refresh our memories should Dylan have a little brother or sister come along at a time FAR FAR away.

Baby Dylan - 4 wks old today

Our precious angel is 4 weeks old today. He is growing so fast and getting this cute little personality of his own. He stays awake a bit more everyday. He is a very alert baby. Always keeping a close eye on when we leave the room or sit to get a bite to eat,lol. Seems like that is when he needs us the most and he cries his most urgent cry. He sure knows how to work us already, lol. I wouldn't change it for the world. We are blessed.

Baby Dylan - 3 wks old today

Wow, doesn't seem like it but, today Dylan is 3 wks old. Hard to believe. He is such a blessing to both Matt and I. We are lucky so far, he sleeps pretty good at night. Hopefully we won't be having to many "Up all night" experiences,lol. We are truly enjoying every single moment we have with him. He is loved very much. Words can't describe the joy he has brought into our lives. We look forward to all the wonderful times we will share together.

Happy Easter 2007

Happy Easter to all our family and friends around the world. Dylan spent his first Easter having his pictures made. You can check out the photo gallery under his section for more fun Easter pictures.

DYLAN JOSEPH LEBLANC

Sheree' and I became parents today at 8:14am CST when Dylan Joseph LeBlanc came into the world. He weighed 8 lbs. and 1 oz. He was 19 1/2 inches long. And last but not least, he is amazing. Sheree' and I are very blessed are are looking forward to the many memories that we are going to have with him. We will be uploading more photos soon.

Thanks to everyone's thoughts and prayers.....we could not have done it without everyone.

Dylan's Daddy!

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to share this wonderful photo of Matt assembling Dylan's firetruck pedal car. He says Dylan is gonna knock all the paint off our walls zooming around the house playing fireman. I am not too sure Matt is not jealous that he can't fit in it!!!
