Baby Krew

Kaden prepping to do the circumcision!

Just kidding!

Dougy Houser?

Mommy in training!

I'm going to be out of a job!

Who doesn't love a good practical joke?  Brandaan met the Weeks' outside the door and told them they had to wear the masks before they entered the secure area.  They totally bought it and we all almost peed our pants when they walked in.

They were good sports!

Uncle Brett and Aunt Meggie

Tiffers and Camilla!

What's a party without balloon animals!

Finally, getting ready to go home...

Is this blanket my sister made not amazing?

Finally at home and we get him all to ourselves!

Four Grew to Five! ..and now were an entire Krew! HeHe!

I called my sister and told her I was going to have the baby.   She arranged for her mother-in-law to take care of her two kids and booked a flight within two hours of my call.  Thank you Pam!  You're amazing!  My brother and his fiance' Meggie drove 3 hours round trip to pick Tiffer up at the airport.  They all made it in plenty of time to hold my hand.  I couldn't ask for a better family!  I never needed more support than I did during this labor and delivery!

My doctor after a job well done!  Krew decided to come out face up and the doc couldn't turn him.  Normally, he would do a c-section.  My epidural stopped working right before I started pushing.  The anesthesiologist was in a knee surgery and couldn't come to my rescue.  

Krew was having trouble with his breathing and stayed here for eight hours!

I got to hold his finger after two hours....

and finally hold him after six hours.  I was a basket case and cried off and on the entire time!  No Joke!

Reese finally got a peek at what she's been waiting for!

His first bottle...

Crazy Excited!

Double kisses!

Love you Aunt Tiffer!

...and Aunt Meggie!

Is this not the cutest hat?

Christmas Morning

Ward Christmas Party

Kaden singing with the Primary...

Kaden and his dad sang a little duet at church.  They sang "Santa Clause is Coming to Town."  I was totally in tears.  I was secretly hoping Kaden would choke and Brandaan would have to sing the entire song by himself!  Is that terrible?

Christmas Pageant at School

Kaden and his class performed "The 12 Days of Christmas."  Kaden's part was "Seven Swans a Swimming."  He was really sick and hadn't gone to school that day.  He still wanted to go to the show anyway.  We gave him some Tylenol and he performed like a champ!

Is that stocking not bigger than him?

We went out to Mexican after the show.  We did the same thing last year, so I guess it's tradition now.  First item of priority...What did Santa get Kaden?

This guy makes me laugh so hard!
