Happy Mother's Day!

Callie decorated this cake for me at school on friday.  Redken made me a cutting board in his enginering class.  Ira made me an egg and gave me a card.  Norielle asked if she could stay home from church and take care of the kids (nice try).  Ryan went to Salt Lake City for his brother's wedding for the weekend, so he owes me breakfast in bed and my sunday mothers day nap!  Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers in our lives.  Mother's are Amazing!!!

Two weeks old...

Collette is two weeks old tonight. She is now a little past her birth weight, 7. 13.  She is starting to smile and sleeping a little better at night. She had her first bath which she did not enjoy. Mick loves  to talk to her. Time flies and we are trying to enjoy every moment.

Redken's 1st date in Georgia

Redken is on a date tonight. Meet Anna King, a senior one of the smartest  in her graduating class I might add, the bishop's daughter and a really nice girl. They are going to a regional mormom prom. Before the dance they were off to take group pictures at the park then off to dinner.

It's a Girl!


We arrived at the hospital on Saturday, April 27, 2013 at 6:30 p.m.  I thought they would send me home because the contractions were so far apart, but when they checked me I was 8 c.m., guess I was wrong. We wanted this Baby to come in April. We got our wish.
After 10 minutes of hard pushing, Collette Maggie arrived at
7:53 p.m. She weighed 7 lbs. and 11 oz. and 19 inches long. We had a great midwife and all the nurses were so helpful.
The kids came the next day and we had a moment of emotion as we realized our family is all complete.  This is it. The last of our children arrived and we feel very blessed.  At the" Top of Our Game " Ryan and I   went home with our little one...
