Seminary

This is Austin's first year to go to seminary. Seminary is an early morning church class for grades 9-12. His class starts at 5:45am. He gets up at 5am. For some reason his alarm clock never seems to work, so Jeremy or I would have to go upstairs and have him get out of bed ... this was getting very annoying! Finally one day Austin's alarm clock was going off at 5am ... too bad it was SATURDAY!! Now, the funniest part of this story has yet to come. Yesterday Austin was up and ready to wait for his ride ... only it was not 5:30am it was 4:30am!! His clock had the wrong time on it and he got up at 4am and did not notice the "real" time until he was already ready at 4:30am!! Today, his alarm went off at the right time and he got up and ready on his own :-) Hopefully this is how it will go for the rest of his seminary days.

IT IS A GIRL!!

September 2, 2010. Today was the day that we would all find out if we were having a boy or a girl. My sister Amie came and got Kaden and Landon. The other 5 boys were at school. When Amie took Kaden, he told her, “ I cannot stay at your house for a long time, my mom is having a baby and I need to go home.” Four hours after they had left our baby arrived. Kaden was right all along!! We had our little Sarah!! She finally came!! She was here and healthy!! The moment was undescriable. I love all my babies, but this time it was different. I called my sister, Amie and asked to talk to Kaden. When he got on the phone and I said, “Kaden, I had the baby.” His reponse, “Okay I am coming!!” and he gave Amie the phone. She asked him, “Did your mom have a boy or girl?” He pointed his finger at her and said, “IT IS A GIRL!” Amie got back on the phone and asked, “Did you really have a girl?” I replied, “Yes, but I never told Kaden that.” She said, “Okay, we are coming over now. Kaden is getting his shoes on.” When Kaden got home and saw his little Sarah he said, “See I knew it was girl.” He is so proud and protective of her already.
