Keeley Shea and Kaelin Avery are proud to announce the birth of their Baby Brother AIDAN KANE!  Aidan was welcomed into the world a little early on June 13 at 11:31am, despite that, he weighed 9 lbs and 9 oz. and was 21 inches long.   Baby and Mommy are doing great.  Labor was very easy and Aidan was delivered very quickly.  Keeley and Kaelin LOVE Aidan and can't stop kissing him!

• KEELEY is 29 months old.  She is extremely interested in anything to do with Cinderella and all the other Disney princesses!  Keeley loves to read books--her favorites are "The Little Engine That Could".  Her favorite song to be sung when she goes to bed is "Dust in the Wind."  She can count to 20, say all of of her colors and can repeat the letters of the alphabet!".  She also likes to sing "twinkle, twinkle little star and "somewhere over the rainbow"  It's amazing to hear some of the stories that come out of her mouth.  She's learning to speak Spanish and Cantonese at school. She can count to 10 in Spanish and sing a couple songs in both languages.  She's becoming so inquisitive and demands on doing everything herself (from putting on her clothes to buckling herself in the car seat, brushing her teeth and going potty.  Of course, getting anywhere takes twice as long now)!  Keeley still loves to pretend play in her kitchen and make all kinds of entrees.  Her most favorite thing is being outside and exploring new things, she loves going to the beach.  She still loves playing with all of her musical instruments and taking care of her baby "Stella."  She also loves pretend play--like pretending she's shopping, or grabbing her purse and putting on Mommy's shoes and pretending to go to work.   She's very interested in cooking and joins Mommy in the kitchen to help with almost every meal.  Keeley loves to take care of Kaelin and most of the time refers to her as "sweetie-pie" (she's also started to call some of the other infants she meets that name too!).   Keeley's latest fun hobby is gardening and we are waiting for tomatoes, herbs, flowers, peppers and beans to grow.
• KAELIN is 13 months old.  She's saying a handful of words. She loves to purposely drop things and shout "Oh, oh!"  She is running all over the place.  She loves playing hide and go seek and we often find her chasing Keeley and Keeley goes from room to room to hide on her.  They love this game an laugh hysterically when they find each other.   Kaelin loves climbing and is very strong. We have been catching her climbing up onto the play table many times...She loves playing shopping, playing with dolls and listening to music.  You should see her dance moves!  She loves following Keeley around and trying to do everything she does. Kaelin loves to be outside and especially loves going for walks in the radio flyer wagon and going to the park to ride the swings.  She likes animals and gets excited when she sees any kind of animal especially birds.  She also likes the same toys as Keeley and she's starting to put up a good fight with her older sister!  Kaelin is so lovable and always has a smile for everyone.  She loves putting her head on Mommy's belly at night and "talking" to her baby brother (blowing raspberries and laughing for 1/2 hour at a time!).
