Like Father Like Son!

Here is a picture at Sheila and Joe's pool with Zeke and Mike hanging out in their red Birdwell's (boardshorts that Mike swears by!)...

Cousins!

We have been very lucky this summer and have spent so much time with Stephen, Jodee, Colby, Jillian and Gunnar. Zeke and Gunnar (who are only 24 hours apart) have really bonded and have had a great time this summer. We will be sad to see Jodee and the kids go back to Massachusetts this weekend. Here is a picture of Zeke and Gunnar hugging as they usually do when they see each other.



here are some other pictures from the summer!

Zeke enjoying some BBQ!

One recent night, Mike and Zeke went to the bbq joint by our house and picked up some bbq. Usually Zeke just goes for the baked beans but he chowed down on some bbq chicken drumsticks!

The Del Mar Races!

Mike had a special treat for Zeke one recent afternoon. They were heading to the Del Mar Races!! Zeke loves the horses and has gone every year since he was born. This year they even won big (by our standards) and came home with some money!!

First Bath

Here are some pictures from Ben's first bath! Not that great of pictures but will try to take more!

Big Brother Zeke!

I had to share this picture even though I look horrible or should I just say exhausted. But that is the way a new mother should look, right? I think this is from the first or second morning we came home from the hospital. I love this picture because Zeke is so happy in it and is showing off his little brother Ben!

Benjamin Gerard Neal!

Benjamin Gerard Neal was born on July 20, 2009 at 2:11pm and was 8 lbs 5 oz and 20.5 inches. We are so happy and love that he is a part of our family. Zeke loves his little brother and is so gentle with him giving him kisses and helping mommy as much as he can. hopefully this stays for awhile.
here are some pictures with the family:
