Thank you Ho Ho

What a Christmas we were blessed with this year. Having a healthy baby was what Walker and I asked Santa for. Sadie has been such a great gift to our family however, in Parkers eyes, Santa brought the best gifts ever. He got a bow and arrow set and a John Deere Gator that he calls his golf cart. He is quite the little driver and insists on always wearing his seat belt. He is also the proud owner of his own tool set and work bench so he can be just like Daddy. What a Christmas!

Parker's Christmas Program

Today was Parker's Christmas program at school. He was supposed to say..R - is for rejoice! A Savior is born! But instead he said.... R- is for rejoice! Sadie is born!...it was pretty cute. He also had to wear his button with Sadie's foot print on it. As usual, he stole the show at the very end with the closing prayer. I am so proud of him!!

Birthday

Sadie Grace Smith arrived at 11:33am on Tuesday December 11th weighing in at 7 lbs 9 oz and 20 &1/4 inches long. She has a full head of black hair and looks like her big brother. She has her Grandpa Don's coloring ( she has that red indian blood). Right now she has blue eyes but I am sure they will change in time. She is a great baby and loves to sleep. She has put herself on a 4 hour schedule and is a great eater. She does not like diaper changes or baths...she is modest. She already loves to watch her big brother sing to her and make silly faces. She turns her head when she hears her Daddy walk in the room. They both already call her "princess". The boys went shopping for a few things we forgot that we needed and came home with 3 new outfits for her. They are worse than I am. So far we are all doing well.

Ok we are going to try this again. It has taken me close to 6 months to find this darn page and now I don't remember how to useit. I am writing because today is a big day for us. We go to the hospital at 8pm to be induced. I am excited and scared all at the same time. I am so ready to meet our new baby girl and see how big brother handles the change. He already has good days and bad days knowing she on her way. I'll keepyou posted. Pray for a healthy baby and smooth delivery. Kara

Well, we are headed out the door to take Parker fishing today. This out to be a lot of fun. He loves to fish!! I'll have to post some pics if we catch anything. That's all for now.
