3/3/10

Hailey and I had gone to All Stars and Kenzie to youth group. While there I got a call saying Bruce and Melissa had to take Jack into the ER for his asthma. Hailey and Max spent the night. I took Hailey to school the next day. Max spent the day with me. He was so good. He was a joy to have.


This picture is when Max was waiting for Kenzie's bus to come. He was watching out the window except when I tricked him and made him laugh so I could snap the picture

Grandbaby #7 arrives...3210...Yeah! Eli's here

Today was so special as baby #7 arrived. Kimmy, Jared, Kenzie and I went to the hospital early in the morning. Kimmy did awesome, so did Jared (the coach) and Kenzie the fanner did a great job too! I haven't seen their video yet so I don't know how I did at my job. I usually take some of the floor so they always remember what it looked like. Don't know yet if I captured it this time. Baby Eli was born with lots of dark hair. He was beautiful...such a miracle from God. Don't know how anyone can look at a baby and not see what a miracle they are. Thank you God! He weighed 7 lbs. 10 oz and was 19 and 1/2 inches long. Once again I couldn't hold the tears back. Watching the birth of all seven of my grandchildren has been an awesome experience. I am blessed. I loved watching as everyone in the family took their turn meeting Eli and expressing their happiness. It was such a joy when I took Jacob and Adam up to see mommy, daddy and their new baby brother. They were so thrilled and wanted to look their baby brother all over. After a few minutes Adam was off playing, but big brother Jacob stayed right by Eli, holding him with such a look of love in his eyes. It was very touching. These are the pictures I captured with my camera.
















Aunt Vikki must have thought we wouldn't take a great picture of her and her new nephew...She decided to snap one herself.

Started some bread dough in my bread maker then headed off with Bill to our Wed. morning breakfast. Had a big group there today. Wes and Gayla bought our breakfast which was really nice of them. Bill and Charlie left in Chalie's truck to go walk and I drove the Prius home. A guy from work and his buddy started working on our roof Monday and did an excellent job. They worked hard and were very fast and very reasonable. They finished up today. I put the pictures on to show the after view.
Vikki came to help make dinner for the Nelson family at church. She brought me a large Tim Horton's cappachino and yummy teraki chicken with rice and yum yum sauce, vegetables and dip, and a boston cream donut for lunch. Very delicious!!! Thank you Vikki.
I am sure blessed with wonderful children. They are all so good to me.
