Baby Kicks...

Baby January has gotten very close to his/ her brand new cousins-to-be this week.  All I can say is that he/ she had a good time kicking the heck out of both of them while they were being held...a sure sign they're BFFs to be!

Baby Annie

Welcome Annie!

Welcome to the World little Annie!

Lucky number 13!  Jon and I are proud to announce that today, October 13, we became Uncle Jonny and Auntie Lori for the second time in less than a week!  Randy, Jess and big brother Jack added little Anne Cecelia to their beautiful family this afternoon. 

Annie is just as sweet as can be with blue eyes and a mess of black hair and measured the exact same height and weight as Jack (6 lb. 13 oz. and 21 inches).

I'm so honored to say I have the privilege of being Annie's godmother.  I was brought to tears and I'll surely enjoy loving her up for the rest of my life.  (I will also be drowning her in pink until her parents strangle me.) 

Two thirds of the 2010/ 2011 Rimkus Baby Boom has been welcomed to the world!  Baby January - you're the tie breaker.  Can't wait to meet you!!!

Welcome to the World Baby Knox!

Uncle Jonny and Knox (2 hours old!)

This past Friday, October 8, Mark and Casey Rimkus welcomed a bouncing baby boy to the world! (Consequently, we become Uncle Jonny and Auntie Lor to a new nephew.)  I know...shocker - a Rimkus boy?  Unheard of... :)

Knox Alan Rimkus is a little blondie, eyelashes and all, and weighed 8 lbs 4 oz and was 21 inches.  We just love him to pieces.  Congratulations Mark and Casey!

I Got Mine For Baby January!

For the first time in many (many) years I got a flu shot!  In addition to protecting myself, as an added bonus I'm passing some of the immunities onto Baby January until he/ she is old enough to receive his/ her own vccinations.

This year's shot was designed to protect against three different flu viruses (including H1N1) and everyone over six months of age should get vaccinated this year. (Especially if you plan to have close contact with Baby January - we've got to cut down on the risk of exposing him/ her to the virus and protect our winter baby!) 

Thanks to everyone who has already taken the plunge and has been vaccinated:  Nana, Mom and Dad Wojciaczyk, Mom and Dad Rimkus and Daddy-to-Be!  If you go to Walgreen's you get a neat-o heart to wear on your arm so you can tell the world who you got a flu shot for.  (Some of us can't be as cool as Jonny, who got a Tasmanian Devil Band-Aid at his office.) I'm rocking my heart today and you should too!

Thanks for "listening" to my public service announcement!  Love to you all.
