What A Day!!!!

He's Here!!!!!

Our Little Caleb Cook is here (middle name is still being decided)!!!!

Hi everyone from a proud auntie Kami. Our two troopers (Shell and Caleb) had quite the day. I will let Richele give the details at a later time,,,alls I have to say being the sister and the auntie---it was AWESOME (and a little worrisome). But mostly awesome!!

After 2 1/2 hours of hard pushing little Caleb just didn't want to meet us yet, so Richele was whisked off for a C-Section. It wasn't much fun for Shell, but it was best for Caleb.

8lb 9 oz

21 inches long

He is 7 hours old as I type this and has yet to cry (literally)---we aren't sure if that's a good or bad sign for things to come--we all hope he just has his Daddy's laid-back nature.

We love you so much Shell and Caleb!!

Cole holds her new little brother!!
What a doll
What a beautiful family!!

Oh, We had so much fun!!! LOTS of laughing, joking, talking and unfortunately lots of PUSHING.
Waiting to start!!! TEXTING!

A typical day out with Cole and the Boys

When Nicole and I go out to play or shop with Kami and the boys and we want a picture of them all, this is the typical result: Cam and Cole cheezing at the camera and Spencer hiding, wanting nothing to do with it. Above is from last week when we went to the Provo Temple to take pictures. Below is from a few months ago after we bought the kids matching bunnies from Arctic Circle and matching elephant hats from Michael's.

The Difference Between Boys & Girls

Last week Kami and I took the kids to the University Mall (aka Kristi's mall) to play in its treehouse. I had to laugh as I realized Spencer was running around with a gun and Cole was running around holding her flower. There sure can be differences in boys and girls! I had to get a picture!

38 Weeks!

Sorry the picture is dark, but it's the only one Greg took that had a semi-decent angle to it. All the others made me look even more like a whale! :)
