Kate Elaine - 6 months

Way to grow, Kate!

Kate is one month old today. We took her to get a weight check and she grew 17 0z in 2 weeks!
She is weighing in at 6 lbs. 5 oz and has gained another inch in length.

Kate is wearing a little hat that her great grandpa,
Merle Ray Cheek wore when he was a baby.
He was born in 1919.

DINOmite!

Josiah Will is 3 years old!

Josiah and Kristopher helped to make this fun dinosaur cake.
Josiah thought it was sooo cool!

Good friends make a great party!

Thanks to everyone for the presents!


It was a perfect day to fly the kites that Asher gave the boys

"It's hard having a baby sister when you love her so much" - Kristopher when told he couldn't hold Kate right now

It's hard work being 3 weeks old...

baby dear...you filled a place in our hearts we never knew was empty.
"mama, i love that baby." - josiah

We're Home

Its been a busy few days, but we're enjoying being home. Kate is growing (1.5 oz) and mom is doing OK besides the whole not sleeping thing. Kristopher and Josiah love to hold their little sister and Kristopher said "It's fun to have three kids." Grandpa is back from India and Grandma Jan will get to stay a while to help us get settled. We've been so thankful for our friends and family who have been so encouraging and helpful, although Kate won't be the only one gaining weight if I keep eating this well.
