Settling in Nicely

We had a great month back home in Nebraska. From the family reunions, baby showers, parties, softball games, fireworks, and all that shopping! Lauren loved meeting everyone. It turns out she has only one functioning kidney, but her good kidney works like a charm so there is no need to worry.

We’ve got back into the groove here in Juneau. Ashley loves staying home with Lauren, working with her on development exercises, napping, and giving her lots of kisses. The two of them have been attending the Hospital baby and parent classes each Thursday at lunch time. They have a great time swapping stories with other families and getting child care tips from the childcare consultant.

B.J. has been busy studying for the P.E. exam set for October. Work stays steady, he's currently working on the Juneau airport runway expansion project, and a feasibility study to replace the Ketchikan School District oil fired boilers with electric boilers. He hopes to get the skiff out several more times this season, but that darn weather just won’t cooperate!

Here are some photos from the trip. Enjoy!



Love,

Ashley, Lauren, & BJ
