The Glade Family: I Heart TJ

I Heart TJ

So here we are, not quite 3 weeks old, and he can already hold his head up all by himself. He loves to lay on my chest or stomach and he will just look all around. As his eyes get better and better, his interest in the world deepens. It's so fun to watch.

TJ has a HEALTHY HEALTHY appetite. He already weighs nearly 10 lbs!!! (No wonder I'm having such a hard time with my milk supply...) He tries to eat checks, noses, etc.

It was so great to have my mom here for a visit. I'm glad she was able to meet my little boy, and spend some time with me --even if I was a little too tired to be as much fun as normal. Rob was great and watched TJ for us, so we were able to go shopping at Ann Taylor Loft one evening. After months of maternity clothes, it was tons of fun.

Rob and I met in Washington, DC during the summer of 2004. We went on a few great hikes together, and really enjoyed each other's company. But alot still had to happen before the time would be right for us to get together. In May of 2005, Rob organized a trip to Peru to hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. I went along with the group, and romance blossomed in the high Andes atmosphere. We were married December 10, 2005. The years immediately following our marriage were spent in Washington, DC, where Rob was finishing up his residency in otolaryngology. We then moved to Little Rock, AR, for a fellowship in pediatrics, and in September of 2008, our first little boy was born. After 15(!!!!!) years of education, Rob was unable to find any other way to delay getting a job, and we moved to Oklahoma. In May of 2011 our second son was born to annoy and entertain his big brother. These are the days!
