All Smiles!


Will's Great Aunt Abby came over yesterday to take some pictures, she got some nice shots of Will having a great time!

Will had his 1-month check up today. Yes, a little late - but this was the only time they could fit little Will in! Will is gaining weight quickly, he weighs 11 1/2 pounds and is 22 1/4 inches long! His pediatrician said he is doing excellent, meeting all his developmental milestones and then some!

Yeah Will!

Welcome!




Hi all! Welcome to Drew and Will's site! I heard about this from a friend and thought it would be a great way to share our family with our friends and family that are near and far! Drew and Will have now been together for a little over a month - and what fun it has been!



Drew has been in Kindergarten since early September and is doing fantastic - the little comedian in him is coming out more and more and we will hopefully have lots of funny stories to tell you! Will is almost 6 weeks old, adorable as ever and amazingly he is sleeping 6-8 hours at night - which we are all enjoying!

Drew's latest news is sounding out lots of letters and writing words. He loves to do it and maybe he will be reading soon?! He loves his time in Kindergarten, time with his dad and being with his little friends. Lately Drew and Gary have been racing their new RC racing car and doing lots of work around the house! Drew also loves to read books, play superheroes, ride his bike, he loves anything to do with drawing or painting and kissing his baby brother Will! He is such a great kid, but of course knows how to push our buttons!


At 6 weeks Will is doing fabulous! His pediatrician called him Prince William and said he is wonderful! Will enjoys being held, eating, some tummy time, stroller rides, and smiling! Will has started giving us lots and lots of toothless grins which just melts our heart and makes our day! He is also making lots of little squeals and has even started cooing. He also just found his little hands which he thinks is just the best! Oh yea did I mention he is sleeping up to 8 hours at night? Last night was his longest at 8 to 4am. Wow! The first night he slept 6 hours I actually ended up waking him up to make sure he was ok!:) Of course things were fine! Will goes for a check up on Monday, we are guessing that he weighs 11-12 pounds!

Will has been such a blessing to us and everyone in our family. This past year has been incredibly difficult with losing my brother. He was a wonderful brother and friend and an awesome uncle to Drew. It is sad to hear Drew say he does not remember him and that Will will never know him. We have videos and try to talk about him a lot. We are trying to move forward and keeping BJ's memories alive by sharing lots of fun stories about BJ with Drew and Will...



I am excited about Drew and Will's site! It will be such a fun way to share pictures and stories! Please check back often for updates, hope you are all well - take care! -Love Shasta, Gary , Drew & Will
