Welcoming grand baby #4

Sarah gave birth to Ryker Nicholas Lazzara on January 12th. She was induced on Sunday night because the baby wasn't gaining any weight from about 34/35 weeks gestation. The doctor's wanted him out to grow more normally. Apparently Sarah's placenta may not have been fully developed. He was born two weeks early on her 20th birthday. He was 5lbs 14 oz and 18 inches long. He was born healthy with only a little jaundice. The delivery went very smoothly. Sarah is happy to be a new mother and is recovering well. She brought him to church and showed him off. 

We are so in love this this little peanut!!

Winter Play Time

Savannah just loves playing in the snow. The school kids had three days off from school due to bitter cold temperatures in Chicago. It finally started warming up a little on Saturday. It was the perfect day to build an ice castle and play in the snow. The snow wasn't firm enough to build a snowman.

Mom's new ride has finally arrived. I'm absolutely in LOVE with my new vehicle!
