lots of pics from Kim

Here in a little Preemie outfit Auntie Amy gave her...I forgot hot TINY they are when they are born!

a few more pictures of my baby!

My GIRLS!!!

And below...everyone's going the extra mile to help out around the house...




Of course we are so blessed to have so many others to help us out with the birth! Tiff, Amy, and Mom came and cleaned my house the day before I was induced, Jenn brought us some pizza the night before, Amy, Dad and Tiff brought KUDOS (a box of 50 that only lasted 24 hours!) to the hospital, Marshall stayed home and tended ALL the grandkids (almost) at one point, Mom brought PIZZA HUT to the hospital after the birth, Jenn went and picked up the kids from school, both at Carden AND in Sandy!,....it was just a cooperative effort on the part of so many to make things run smoothly. We are so grateful to have such supportive family!!! Thanks to EVERYONE who visited, who still visits, for the meals but especially the LOVE! We are so blessed!

CONGRATULATIONS!! Bethany is absolutely precious. There is something very, very special about a newborn baby. I love the sweet spirit they bring into a home. SO excited for you and Jon, as well as her older siblings. Hope all is well. So glad she arrived safe and healthy. Love, Todd & Celene & Fam
