A Week Old!

One week old!

I can't believe that Tripp is already a week old today.  We already can't imagine life without him.  Sayler loves to hold him, pat his head, and give him kisses.  Sam doesn't seem to be as affected by him as he was when Sayler first arrived.  We only got out of the house once during his first week - we took Sayler and Tripp to the park and Tripp slept the whole time.

Tripp is Finally Here!

Tracy Allen "Tripp" Byerly III

Proud Dad

Since Tripp still hadn't come almost 3 weeks (39 weeks) after his big sister (36 weeks), we decided to induce.  Fortunately Tripp decided to come on his own that day.  I started having contractions early that morning so we headed to the hospital and several hours later we found out we had a son!  Tripp was born at 2:18pm on May 24, 2011.  He weighed 7 pounds, 11 ounces and was 20 inches long.

The first day we didn't think he looked anything like Sayler but over the next couple of days he started to look more like her newborn pictures.  We are so happy to have a girl and a boy now!  Sayler is very gentle with him and we can't wait to take him home and start our lives together.

First Polo Match

On Sunday we went to the Red Oak Cup at the Houston Polo Club.  We had a such a good time and Sayler loved everything about it.  When watching the horses wasn't entertaining enough, she played in the dirt where we were sitting, jumped in the bounce house, and stomped the divots with Tracy .  She was by far the youngest in the bounce house but wasn't scared at all.

Sayler's 1st Train Ride

Today we took Sayler to ride on the train at Hermann Park.  It was really crowded but it worked out that we were first in line for the ride we got on.  I let Tracy pick where we sat so of course we were right in front.  The first choo choo scared Sayler but she soon got used to it and loved waving at everyone we passed.

Galveston

We took Sayler to play at the beach in Galveston today.  We're trying to get out of the house and do as much as possible in these last few days before Baby #2 comes and we'll be more homebound.  Sayler LOVED the water, even though it was cold.
