This past Friday brought yet another trip to the Children’s Mercy ER for a bout with croup. This one was relatively brief compared to the last couple. Just one breathing treatment and a steroid injection and we were ready to come home. We were in the ER shortly after midnight and home [...]

On July 24th at 12:37pm, Corey and Monique became the proud parents of Charisse Comfort Madrid-Rittmaster. Her arrival was a bit of a surprise, however we’re excited to welcome her into the family with open arms.

Mikaela had a rough time getting to sleep last night - she finally went to sleep at almost 11 p.m. But she did sleep until 8 a.m., so she still got a decent night’s sleep. We [...]

July Pictures Added
Posted by Aaron Published in Aaron & Miriam, Corey & Monique, Matt & Sarah, Mikaela, SamanthaOkay - I’m trying to do a better job of keeping up. There’s now a July 2004 Photo Album available in the right-hand column. It includes pictures from Samantha Davie Rittmaster’s baby naming that was a Lloyd & Judy Hellman’s house on July 11.
Wow. I didn’t realize how overdue I’d gotten in getting new pictures posted. The June 2004 album is now available in the righthand column. I should have some July pictures up soon as well. Also coming soon (but probably still a couple of weeks away), Baby Sam will get her own [...]
