Baby Keira is Here!

Baby Keira was born early early this morning! Mom and Baby are doing great. Jess had such a great delivery and everything went so well - Praise the Lord! She is absolutely adorable! She has a lot of dark hair and she's 7 lbs 6 oz and 20 inches long. Just a tiny little thing! Taylor was never that little so I don't know what that feels like! ;) Taylor stayed with Daddy while Mommy was at the hospital. I don't have any pictures because I forgot my camera and had to take pictures with my phone. I don't know how to upload those so I'll have to put a picture on here later. Had to let everyone know right away that she's here!

Trip to Tim and Kim's

We just got back from Tim and Kim's - our last time out there since they are moving in August to Tennessee! I can't believe that they won't be out in SD anymore! We are going to miss them so much! They are such a neat family and so special to us in every way! We got out there on the 4th just in time to eat a wonderful dinner (Kim is such a great cook) and then head over to Brookings for fireworks. Taylor and I had to stay in the car because they were so close and loud and I got the fireworks of his spitup - it went everywhere! All over the door, all over me, all over him, really all over everything! I had to open the door and ask Mike to come over and help me. Saturday, Mike went golfing with Tim and the boys and then they went to the pool while Kim, Ash and I went shopping. We went to Hobby Lobby - my first time ever - and I fell in love. Since our car was already packed going out there, I had to limit myself to what I could buy and that was really hard because everything was so amazing! Kim really helped me pick out some good stuff - she's so good at that, you should see her house! Sunday was church with an afternoon picnic and softball game. Tim asked Mike to preach and he did such a good job - I was so proud! :) We just relaxed the rest of the night and then relaxed on Monday and drove back leisurely! It was such an awesome weekend!

Taste of MN

Mike and I were able to go on a date to Taste of MN tonight. Mom and Dad Henderson offered to watch Taylor so that we could spend some time together. Mike and I didn't want to take Taylor to Taste because it's so loud and there are so many people there plus he's still so young. So it was the perfect opportunity to go on a date! We stopped at Arby's first for dinner so we could save our money for treats! :)

We always park at the Science Museum so we can watch the fireworks from the parking ramp and beat the traffic. This year though, there was a family sitting right behind our car so we had to move down a little bit from our car but we still beat the traffic. It was such a fun night! So relaxing and a wonderful time alone!
