Tallulah's Birthday Party
Tallulah's turning 2 on September 21st and this past weekend Sean and Molly had a Birthday Party for her. Unfortunately Uncle Aaron and Aunt Sarah didn't make it because Reagan and Paige were sick. Tallulah I'm sure missed them. Lucas, who she calls "Buddy" along with Mick and her cousins Olivia and Alexandra played together, jumping in the trampoline or splashing in the 2 pools Sean had put next to each other. Lucas & Tallulah just jumped back and forth from pool to pool having the best time. Sean and Molly had such a delicious spread of "Smoked Pork shoulder" homemade coleslaw and beans, and T's favorite baked Mac-n-chez.. then the finale of the evening "Chocolate, Chocolate cake" YUM!!!!!
I hope you enjoy the slide show...

Armourdale Labor Day Block Party Sept 5th 2010
Our street has been having a block party for many years now and every year tops the last... This year we had a "Cowboy" Western roundup theme and everyone dressed in hats, boots, bandana's and any western attire they could come up with. We had mechanical bull riding, panning for gold, a bounce house, and a huge water slide. Lunch was served to all the childern (hotdogs, chips and drinks) after lunch festivities included a balloon tossing competition, dog parade, line dancing and a talent show followed by dinner and dancing in the streets to our very own "Elm Street Band" from 5:00 to 8:30. It was such a fun day, Sean & Molly came by for awhile but had an engagement party to attend so Steve and I kept Emmy and Tallulah. Tallulah had a blast she enjoyed herself watch her dance to "California girls" with grandpa and then alone. Sarah and Aaron with there girls had a block party of there own so we didn't see Reagan or Paige this day. Boo Hoo they would have loved it..

Mt Baldy 1974
Most of you know that Steve and I have been together since summer between 8th and 9th grade, so just celebrating our wedding anniversary seems somewhat "not the whole picture" if you know what I mean..
Steve and I hiked Mt Baldy, here in this picture we are 18, and me 17, I know most of you don't see any change in us...(hahaha) I just love to wander back down memory lane this time of year.
Happy 34th August 13th 1976-2010

| Core-Rosion Products New Home 3300 E. 19th Street Signal Hill, CA 90755 Steve and I bought our 1st piece of commercial property and moved in in August. Wow!!! we our so thrilled to be able to have our own building. Steve started two other business's recently, 1. BrineMaker, Inc. and 2. CRP Tank Specialties, Inc. so we had really grown out of our little office across the street. I wish I had video of Sean, Kurt and Aaron moving our entire warehouse and office by way of forklift crossing the street, it was really a site.. with sometimes things slipping off and crashing into the street (thank God those were the items we didn't plan on keeping).. It has been a total "office family" experience!! even Angela and Barry stayed over in Long Beach the weekend we really "busted a move" Thank you to everyone involved!!! I will have "Before" and "After" pictures up on my Blog soon! |

Today Emmy meets Reagan & Paige 07/13/10
Today I had Reagan, Paige and Tallulah for a little while. Molly had to take Emmy into see the Pediatrician. When they got back Reagan got to hold Emmy and Paige sat next to her in awh... Emmy had gained 4oz just overnight, Molly said the hospital had her on a schedule of 2/5/8 & 11 o'clock feedings so Molly has been pumping on that same schedule therefore making the transition at home very easy to say the least!! Molly is such a sweet and very loving mother. She said Emmy didn't cry all night, just makes little noises when she starts to wake or is ready for a feeding.. I am so glad she is home... She is such a peaceful baby. Tallulah was gentle (with help) when introduced to her baby sister and I think she is going to adjust just fine.
Grandpa showed up for lunch and received some warm hugs and loves from his grand-daughters. He also held Emmy for the 1st time since coming home from the hospital.

Emmy Karma (07/07/10)
I met Molly at the hospital today, Emmy has been in the "Not so critical" area of the NICU since the night Molly was discharged. Emmy is doing so much better, she has been off the oxygen for a couple of days and they gave her for the 1st time a bottle of breast milk this morning...Molly and Sean spent the morning at the hospital and I took care of Tallulah, then I handed off Tula to Sean and went to the hospital to see and hold Emmy and help Molly in anyway that I could..Molly got to breast feed Emmy for the 1st time at approximately 3pm this afternoon.. Emmy took to her breast immediately, it was so natural at instinctive.. God willing they will remove all the wires and set Emmy free to just be the perfect, capable baby girl that she is. Her bellirubin count for (jaundice) is in a low range of the scale and that is a non-issue now. Emmy has lost a little weight, but is a strong eater and I have full faith she will be coming home in a couple of days..

Emmy Karma Ireland 07/02/10
WOW!! July started off with a bang!! Molly started having contractions on July 1st in the afternoon, she said she slept through the night no problem. The next day she had a play date with girlfriend's down in Newport beach, the contractions never stopped, then she started bleeding.. called her doctor and was told to go into the hospital and get checked out, perhaps an injection to stop the contractions since the scheduled c-section was for July 30ish, so off to Memorial hospital she and Sean go..after the 1st try to stop the contractions didn't work, in fact Molly said they proceeded and got stronger, so they tried again and again nothing..so it was decided this little girl was coming today!! I was giving Tallulah and Paige a bath when Steve came into the bathroom and gave me the news.. Molly wanted me..I'm on my way. Molly was in good spirits considering she's delivering a month early but we were all excited and anticipating the best. Just after 7:30pm they escorted Sean to the delivery operating room and told us to go to the nursery, the baby would be out in about 20minutes, so myself with Chris and Lea (friends of Sean & Molly)waited by the nursery for the baby to come out with Sean.
And out they came, Sean a big smile on his face, Emmy Karma Ireland was here.. Molly went to recovery and we found out Emmy weighed in at 5 lbs 15 oz and is 19" long..great weight for a month early.
After about 1/2 hour they decide to move her the NI CU because she isn't taking in enough oxygen.
So now we wait.. as of yesterday she was already doing much better, she's working at getting fluid out of her lungs and they've moved the amount of oxygen from 100% to 60%.
Molly was de-wired last night and got a shower, she looks amazing!! not sure when she'll come home, I know she doesn't want to come home empty handed.. well wait and see.
Steve and I are so excited to be grandparents for the 4th time now and couldn't be more proud!
