May 8th Double the Fun

Saturday morning we get a phone call from Cole that Kelly had gone to the hospital in the middle of the night and Khloe was here!

Kelly woke in the night and was feeling sick (chills and fever) and that started her contractions.

They left for the hospital at about 2:30.

When the babies heart rate started dropping they rushed her to do a c-section.

Khloe 4:04 AM 6 lb9 oz.

It was early in the morning so I sent a text to her sisters (and sister-in laws) and brothers that Kelly's baby was here. Amy was one that called back immediately.

She said she wasn't sleeping anyway.

Kelly was doing the food for a Stake Cub Scout Day Camp Saturday and all the food was at her house.

She as supposed to make subs with her Dad that morning. Kim said she would help with the Subs and Amy said "I might as well, what else am I doing".

They finished the subs and I took the other food to the church and woke up the Beecher Kids to the news of the new sister.

I was coming home from hospital about 9:00 when Amy calls and says she is on the way to the hospital and I was surprized she was going to visit Kelly so soon and she said

"My water just broke, I'm on my way!!!!"

The rest of the day was a blur for all of us but about 7:30 we get the word that

Jade Rooklyn was here!

@6:59 7 lb13 oz 20.5 inches long.

It was a long day with the whole family helping out where needed. Even Cute big sister Emily turned into a little mom and took over with things that needed to be done for her mom and the kids.

I love my family and it was so fitting the next day was Mother's Day

We had a real "Mother Fest" all day and I loved it.

Mother's Day Program with James

Kim told the Jr.High she would chaperon on the buss for Grant and McKay's choir when she found out about James's Mother's Day Program at school. Kim asked me to be her stand in Mom for James.

They showered the Mom's and a few Grandma's with a very clever program, muffins and strawberries and flowers.

What a great teacher!

It was so fun to spend some time with James.

Thanks Kim

Sister's Trip

We had a little different Sister's trip this year. We two of the girls are having babies in May and they were pushing to go in April. We found that April was full of things happening so we missed some of our group. Laura was going to hear Sarah's All-State Concert in Flag and Joni had a Stake Camp Meeting She was in charge of.

We didn't go very far. We stayed at the Hyatt Place behind Cinemark

The Hotel drove us to Chilli's we had dinner and walked to the movie and walked back to the hotel.

We started at Old Navy and Last Chance and had

Lunch at Miracle Mile

My one token Quilt Store and didn't find anything I needed this trip. So Sad!

The day we left Nate came down with Appendicitis and had his Appendix out Friday night late.

Saturday morning we went to see him in the hospital. He was already feeling better.

Laura Stayed with Nate and Steve went with Brent and Becca and Jake drove to Flagstaff to hear Sarah sing in the All-State Choir Concert. Steve said it was awesome!
