Liam and Nana and Papa

Nana and Papa came to see Liam for the first time today. They brought Zach with them as well so he could hang out with his cousins.

 

 

 

 

Pool time!

I just wanted to add a few more pics of Kayley, Lyss, Emily and Eva playing in our pool! The weather here is great for swimming...year round. I have yet to find the time myself...

Liam Michael Ray

Liam was born on Sunday, June 14th at 5:39 pm. Only around 5% of babies are born on their "due date" and both Kayley and Liam were! Alyssa checked into the hospital on sunday at about 8:30 in the morning. She was not induced. I know several people were wondering about that. He is 8 lbs and 5 oz and 19 inches long. The same length as Kayley was, just a little heavier. Alyssa and Liam are now home from the hospital. It has been a stressful time with me in school and working at the hospital. Alyssa has had to have some extra help from her mother and sister Emily. We are very thankful they were able to come to Las Cruces to help out. We have enjoyed their company. Liam is a beautiful little boy! He is absolutely perfect just like his sister! We are happy he has joined the family and are thankful for his presence. He is such a little cutie and loves to be held. Kayley is not too upset either. She likes to point at him and say "baby" and "babies toes" while touching his little feet. She only gets a little jealous if he is sitting in her old pink infant chair. We bought her a new one that can hold more weight so now she can have her own...again. Eva, Kayley and Liam's cousin (Emily's daugter) is also here so her and Kayley "play" together which also aids as a distraction. Alyssa is recovering well and is happy to be back at the house. I know you are all anxious to see some pictures so here are some! Later I will add some of Kayley so you can see how big she is getting too. Of course, there will also be more pictures of Liam soon!

At the hospital

Right now we are at Memorial Medical Center in Las Cruces NM. It is 12:23 PM. Alyssa is very close to having the baby boy. Alyssa's mother Katheryne is also here helping. We will have some pictures posted soon!

We will be back!

Hello all! Wow it has been a while since we left anything on our blog! We have been super busy with moving and school etc. We will have some new pictures and stuff soon! We are now in Las Cruces and it is HOT! Wow, not used to it all. Anyway, keep checking back because one day will have some pics up!

Sarah in Utah!

A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of my sister Sarah's company. She flew out from TN to visit for the week. We enjoyed several activities but best of all we were able to just spend time with Sarah! We were all SAD when she had to leave! We love you Sis!
