More pics of Mike's wedding

Mike's wedding

My cousin, Mike, got married on June 19th and we were able to attend the wedding. Yes, 9 days after Abigail was born we went to my cousin's wedding in Virginia. I know we are crazy, but my cousin is as close as a brother to me. He grew up 5 minutes down the road from my family and was always over at our house...we went on vacations together and holidays. We were able to go to the wedding because my inlaws live 20 minutes from my cousin's church. So, Caleb and TJ stayed with Kevin's parents the whole weekend while we attended the wedding. We are so thankful they were able to watch the boys. I had a lovely time and it was very nice to see my family!!

Firefighters to the rescue

Kevin bought the boys some firefighter outfits and the boys tried them on last night. They love them and are greatly enjoying being firefighters. The little outfits come with a fire extinguisher and a bullhorn. For some reason, Kevin felt the need to actually put batteries in the bullhorn. I think he is regretting that today. : ) The box that the outfits came in has become the perfect play fire engine. They are great at saving kittens, dogs, and putting out fires. So fun to see them use their imagination!!!

More pics of Abigail

I took some more pics of Abigail the other day...I gave her a little photo shoot. She was very sleepy and I was trying to feed her so we took some time out to take pics and try to wake her up.

Abigail Joy Beeker

Our precious little girl arrived on Thursday, June 10th at 3:24 pm. She weighed 8lbs. 7 oz. and was 20 inches long. We think she looks like a combo of Caleb and TJ. The boys love their little sister and want to hold her and see her quite often during the day. Kevin's parents were here while we went to the hospital and then my mom came on Saturday to help out. Yay for help!!

I'll try to write more later when I have a few more brain cells. So, here are a few pictures!

Busy Weekend

We had quite the party weekend!! Saturday we went to a Luau party that one of Kevin's coworkers had...it was very fun. They sure know how to put on a party. They had so much food I couldn't believe it...I think I ate for a few hours on Saturday. Everything was so delicious...I was definitely not hungry for dinner later on. And they also had a huge 20 ft blow up water slide. Caleb did the water slide pretty much the whole time we were there. There were some really nice older children who helped him out and were very patient with him as he climbed up the slippery slide. TJ was just happy with Kevin holding him and watching his brother.

Then after church on Sunday, we went to a birthday party for our neighbor. We have been greatly blessed by this neighbor. They were the first people we met here and have been good friends for us. Their boys are 4 and 3 and so perfect ages to play with. They had a pool party for the now 3 year old and we had a great time. The boys got partying favors and one of the things was a pair of goggles for each of them. So, that is what the pictures are of.
