As of May 9th, Mother's Day, we had a beautiful, very smart baby girl. We are very blessed to have her in our lives. She makes every day that much more worth it. The Lord was definately with our family through recovery time. It was a much overwhelming and needed experience that I will never forget.
She is now four months old, and quite a little character. She is such a princess, and when she wants something, usually she wants it right NOW! We love her so much, and even though parenthood is quite challenging sometimes, I will just see her cute little smile, and everything seems much better. I think for us that the first three weeks was the hardest, because of being new to being parents, not knowing what we were doing, and trying to adapt to the little one's schedule, but of course we got through it with a lot of prayers (which we highly appreciate all of you for doing for us.) It really meant a lot.
Recently we got to visit Arches National Park. It was awesome. Thanks to Grandma Seguine, Riley and I actually got to hike the delicate arch the first day we went there. We got back and swam, and relaxed. Well, I should say somewhat. Our little girl had a little bit of a hard time adjusting at first. Oh well- her schedule was just really thrown off, and we were out of a routine. The next day we drove through arches again, and were able to go on a short hike to Landscape arch. Well, right before we left on our hike.... Kairi had the blowout of all blowouts! Poor girl. Mommy had to change her, and used about fifteen wipes. Grandma had to empty out her garbage bag in her car, so we had something to put poopy clothes in. Kairi was a pill in the car, but the second we got out, she was great, so the Great Grandparents thought she was being an angel for us. Righy before we left Landscape arch, I was changing the little one again, but as I went to wipe her... sure enough PEE ALL OVER MY HAND and on her clothes. Oh dear. We ended up at Moab for lunch after visiting the visitors center. I collect spoons, and I had to have one with Arches of course. Well, Can you believe that Arches Visitors center DID NOT have any collector spoons. :( Well, at least I found one in Moab, oh and Riley was teasing me like he was going to feed Kairi Ice Cream, than got a big blob on her onesie. By that point it was the third outfit of the day, and I really didn't care any more. I had only brought four that day just in case. Finally she fell asleep, and we were able to enjoy a nice ride along the Colorado River. We only had to stop for one more poopy diaper, which Riley had to honk at his Dad to stop for. I love adventures, and Kairi just makes them a little more exciting for me. All in all, it was a wonderful trip and we had a good time. Well, that is all I am writing for now. Enjoy!
