It all started at 4ish on Friday morning, then i got a call from Brian with an update around 10 in the morning. By 2ish i was on my way to their house. when i pulled up this is what i saw from the master bedroom window…

gotta get that tub set up!!!
Shalimar labored for about an hour, the baby came at 3:50. It was, like i said before, amazing. She did such a great job, and it was a blessing to be able to witness it.

Waving hello to the kids thru the window as they came home…





Here she is, fresh from the oven!! At this point Shal was saying “I did it, I did it, I don’t have to push anymore!!!”





Wyatt was very nervous when the baby was crying, so he thought covering his ears would help buffer the noise….

The kids wanted to make a cake for the baby..



Here she is – sweet and content!! Be sure to check out Shals blog – she is going to put togehter a super cool slide show!
I witnessed a birth yesterday for the first time. It was AMAZING! Shalimar was just, perfect. It was hard to keep the camera still after the sweet little baby entered the world, my hands were shaking like crazy from the rush i had. I’m still editing the photos, then i will decide which ones to put on here, but for now i will leave you with this. Big sis watching mom during one of her contractions…

Filet Mignon, Mashed Potatoes, Spinach, Gorgonzola Cream Sauce…

So Rachel threw Kelly a wine tasting party for her birthday. It was a great idea, and we had plenty of fun…



About 2 seconds after this she threw up. The baby that is, not Brooke…


Buddy’s wine was the big winner…


Then the “dumped” wine was passed around for all to enjoy…




Yeah, Ice Cream Cake!!!


When Jade came out to work with Rob, they made ice cream as well. But unfortunately we didn’t freeze the bucket long enough so it didn’t freeze up properly. Later in the week we churned it. I’ve been eating it ever since.
Mint Chocolate Chip.

Alaskan Butter Fish, Risotto, Carrots, Leaks, Jerusalem Artichokes, Lemon, Parsley, and White Wine.
