AUGUSTUS COMES HOME!

We finally brought Augustus home from the hospital today!

One of his final photos as a CHOP resident.

Relaxing at home with Marlowe, Aunt Liz, and Sam.

Supermen

Thanks to our friend Lisa for these heroic outfits.

More NICU

Gus continues to advance in the NICU, despite requiring a nasogastric feeding tube (for the time being)

Rockies

Marlowe began his baseball career today, and it went very well.

Posing with his buddies Jack and Avery.

Working on fundamentals.

Taking a much-deserved sit after his first day as a baseball player.

Settling in at the NICU

Gus spent the first few weeks at the NICU at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Here he is first with dad, then by himself during the first few days of his stay.

Wedding

Marlowe was selected for the honor of being the ring-bearer at the wedding of dad's close friend Chris and the lovely Francesca.

Marlowe tried on his suit a few days in advance of the wedding. As you can see, it made him feel pretty awesome.

Marlowe did a great job at the wedding, though his tolerance for posing for pictures ebbed and flowed a bit.

WELCOME AUGUSTUS!

Today we welcomed our new addition, Augustus Thomas Asbury! Gus weighed in at an impressive 9 pounds, 3 ounces. Here are some pictures of him on the day he was born.

Easter

We spent Easter with Aunt Liz, Uncle Rick, and family at their lovely home.

New House

We recently moved to our new house in East Falls. Everyone is settling in well, but the Poodles really miss mom when she is not around. Here they are gazing out toward our back yard, eagerly anticipating her return from work.

Marlowe's School Play

Marlowe played a sheep in his school play.

 Getting ready with mom.

His much-anticipated solo.

Class photo following a wonderful performance.
