Mini Vacation, New Toys and A Baby

Jena and Ryan had a sleep over at Teri's house last night and Matt slept over too.
It could not have come at a better time! This Mama needed a break!
It turned out to be quite an adventure!



First they got to watch a Sheriff's Helicopter practice landings across the street from Teri's house. Sara was there at the time and put on a little show with her 'ooo's and aaa's and blowing kisses and waving to the helicopter.

After a movie and popcorn it was off to bed and then up again a bit too early for Teri but when Ry is hungry time is not a concern!

Teri and Matt then took them for a hike up Mill Creek Canyon. And then they went to East High to check out where High School Musical was filmed. Best Aunt and Uncle award for this one!

While putting Ry to bed tonight he informed Barry and I that he wanted to go to East High for High School because he wanted to be a Red Wildcat like Troy and Gabriella. This day will not soon be forgotten!

Thanks Matt and Teri for a great day with the kids!

So what did Sara and I do all morning you ask?
Well, I looked like this until 2pm!
Aren't we so cute?
I've seriously never looked so good!
Call me for beauty tips anytime!
Seriously.

But I did do laundry and get clean sheets on all the beds and some dishes but mainly I started Melissa's quilt that I promised her I was going to make as soon as I knew what she was having! So Melissa, the quilt is on it's way even though Zac is almost 2 weeks old now!
By the way, you should go read her last blog post, her husband apparently lost his mind.

Then I headed out to pick up Barry's iPhone from the AT&T store. I picked mine up yesterday and I'm so happy with it. So happy in fact that I filled the memory completely and I ordered a 16gig white one today.

Anybody want to buy my 8gig G3 iPhone?
You can turn it into a light saber!
Now how cool is that!
I'm just sayin'.

And then the exciting part of the day arrived!
After texting Nate every hour on the status of Ashley and the soon arrival of Katie Lyn, she was finally born at 6:30!
So here are a few pictures of the newest family member!
She is a mini Ashley, not sure what Nate had to do with this baby.
Oh, she does have lots of Brown hair and that is from Nate.
6lb 10oz and 19in.
Jena was so excited to see her.
She is just enough older now than when Sara was born that she is much better at holding a baby without smothering them.What are the chances that when I go to find the picture of baby Kate on my computer that this picture pops up with the same file number from 16 months ago?
Sort of ironic so I just had to share.
Sara about 20 minutes old.
