One week old

Its hard for us to realize some times that Klayton is already a week old. This has been a big difference for all us, considering last time we still had 8 more weeks to go in the NICU. Everyone is doing well and the girls are slowly adjusting. Brynn loves to give kisses to Klayton and they are always curious as to where he is. Its a good thing that babies do well sleeping through loud noises because its not the quietest place always. This past week we have had the grandparents up to help out and also get thier fix in with the kiddos. Below is a few pictures of this past week.

Well, I am sure some of you thought that the next post you saw from us would be regarding our new addition. Well he must know its been a little colder out and he wants to stay warm inside of Mommy. We are patiently waiting and we know that God has the perfect time for him to come into the world. I thought I better get some pictures of Kristin and the girls before the little guy came. Good news for you is that you will get another posting next week as well, when he comes. Sorry it took us so long but we tend to forget to share what is going on.
Some things that have happened since the last post was a campout with my entire family in September and enjoying watching the Hawkeyes on the weekends. The girls had the opportunity to go a pumpkin patch with their friends and Dad got to take them trick or treating for their first time. The girls were not real sure of what to do but we only went to a few houses on our block and the girls still came home with a bag full for Dad and Mom. Don't worry, we do share a few items with them. Hope you enjoy the pics below and keep an eye out for a posting any day with pics of our latest edition.
Waiting patiently. Her due date was today, Nov 5.
Girls love to go on walks. They are so nice to go with Mom and Dad to help Mom get an individual out.
