Bringing Home Baby

We were so happy for Emmalee to come home. Now we get to enjoy her and all that comes with having a newborn at home- sleepless nights which are more tiresome when the boys wake up at 6am. We're all a little tired but she is so wonderful no one cares.

Here's our first family photo and one of Emmalee before she went home.

Ryan and Dylan meet their new Sister

They've been anxiously awaiting sissy's arrival. When the time came to meet her they were in awe. Both boys got to hold her and they were so gentle with her. Ryan loved how small her hands were. He was so cute, he was a little teary-eyed when he held her. Emmalee completes our family now, we are all so happy that she is here.

Everyone loves Emmalee

Emmalee got lots of love from her grandparents!

Emmalee

She's just too cute! Daniel and I were on cloud 9 right after she was born- we finally have a daughter!

Emmalee Ann Krause

She's finally here! Her Birthday was May 19 at 6:07 AM. She weighed 8lbs 6oz and was 20.5 inches long. Emmalee was my biggest baby! She is such a sweetheart and we are all in love with her. Emmalee was born on my Papa Gil's birthday, three minutes before he was born. We spelled her name Emmalee in honor of my nanny Emma and my Papa Gil (who's middle name is Lee). Really I haven't put her down for very long. I don't want to set her down for anything.

Field Trip

Ryan's school went to the Stueve's Organic Dairy Farm for a field trip. They got a big Storer bus and Ryan was so excited that he rode on a bus that had tvs and a bathroom. They saw a brand new calf, went on a hayride, saw chickens and got to get eggs, and had a picnic lunch. Ryan had a great time and I enjoyed watching Ryan enjoy himself.

Funny Faces

The boys love making funny faces at mealtime. They say, "Look over there" and then this is what they do.

Babymoon

In April we decided to go out of town one more time before our little baby girl came. We stayed at the Ritz Carlton at Half Moon Bay. It was absolutely gorgeous! The most beautiful place we have ever stayed at. We had so much fun. The day we got there Daniel played a round of golf while I drove around in the golf cart. I was wearing the blanket like that because it was freezing- like 50 degrees with a fierce wind. I was wearing capris and a t-shirt. Daniel is nuts on the cart, he drove me through some trees and then my blanket got caught in the tires and almost sent Burrito Crystal rolling onto the rough. That was the first time I had been golfing and it was great, I really enjoyed watching Daniel. If you look in the first picture that is Daniel standing on the green with the ocean and our hotel in the background. It looks like a castle in the background. It was so cool they had a bagpiper play at Sunset. We also went out to a yummy dinner and I got a massage the next day. This was a great trip and I'm glad we did it.

What Dylan Does During Games

I know I've put up pictures of Ryan at the Tee ball game but Dylan was at every game too. He wanted so bad to be out there with his brother, daddy, and papa. He loved cheering on his brother and loved sitting with him on the bench waiting for Ryan to go up to bat.
