First day of school 2011

It was the first day of school for the kids on Tuesday. They were all set. New clothes, cute backpacks... I asked Tyson what his favorite thing was and he started in on recess, lunch, seeing all his friends. Finally got to "I like my teacher," but nothing actually about school. He is in 4th grade.

The first thing that Cameron said was, "my teacher's really cool."Josh said, "I like my teacher but I can tell if you make her mad you will be in real trouble."Kaylee's favorite thing about the first day of 4 year-old preschool was the "a, b, c's song." Jaidyn doesn't start her preschool until after labor day, but she is excited to go and everyday wants to know if she can go to school too.

Lucy's blessing

Mike and Melissa blessed Lucy at church on Sunday, June 5, 2011. It was wonderful. Mike gave a beautiful blessing and I am told that during the blessing Lucy looked up at him and gurgled and cooed. She is a beautiful, sweet, and such a good baby. It was a blustery day at the park after the blessing. We just about got blown away...Lucy looked so pretty in her fancy dress. I made it for her and it turned out well and fit just fine.After the blessing we went to a park near Mike and Melissa's house for lunch. Mike, Reid, and Trent cooked up hotdogs and bratz and Mike's family brought lots of great salads, chips and buns. We brought desserts, condiments and fruit. We had a lot of family there from both sides...And a bunch of Melissa and Mike's friends.It was nice seeing and visiting with everyone again. Lucy, of course, got passed around a lot and was so good. She has such a sweet disposition. Jennifer took a few pictures. of those that were there having a good time....Lucy was the star of the show and was so cute in her green dress too.

First day home



New Pics

Lucy came to visit for the first time on Tuesday and Jen got out the camera. The many moods of Lucy...

"Lucy Kay"

Well, they finally named her. She came home from the hospital on Friday and they chose a name and told the nurse. The nurse told them that 12 babies had been named "Addison" that week and three in one day. They changed to Lucy instead. And we all love it. Lucy fits her. Lucy had been in the running since the beginning and Kaylee has always called Lissa's baby "Lucy." She is very sweet and beautiful...
The other kids finally got to see her on her first day home. They were excited. Especially Tyson, he had been so disappointed all week that they wouldn't let him in the hospital to see her.
Tyson came back home with Jen and was playing on the floor with Leggo's. I said to him, "So, how did you like Lucy!" He looked up at me and said, "I love her." He is such a sweetie.
