Leslie delivers!

Emri Blaize Peterson was born on Friday August 22, 2008 (Bryces 66 birthday).  She weighed 6.7 pounds and was 17 inches long.  Leslie was in the hospital (she was induced) only 4 1/2 hours.  Mom and baby are doing great.  Ayvri loves being a big sister.  She memorized a book called "Welcome Home Baby." and reads it to her all the time.  She loves holding her and singing to her.

Leslie invited me in for the delivery.  It was the most amazing thing I have ever been to.  I had a much better view of this miracle than I did the times I delivered.  All I can say is WOW, and thank my Heavenly Father for another sweet spirit joining our family.

Girls Day Out!

We figured if I exchange a daughter for a granddaughter every few years, I'll look younger!  Or maybe I'll feel younger.   Someone asked me how old my kids were the other day.  I about choked when I thought about it.  It's ok if I get old, but when my "kid" will be 40 next year  - that's a shock even to my system!

Take a look at my 8 1/2 month pregnant daughter.  She looks pretty dang good!

From Left to Right (just in case you can't figure it out) is:  Nicole (standing in for Lisa), Kim, Leslie, me, Kaleigh.  I love my daughters and granddaughters.
