Big Brother, Lil Sister

Today

We had such a great morning. Today is Brent's last day off from "paternity leave", so I wanted him to be able to do whatever he wanted. I suggested he go hit some golf balls since he hasn't done that in a while. Well, while he was getting ready to go, Ezra had his clubs out in the backyard and was showing me how well he can hit the balls. Since he was having so much fun, I suggested to Brent that we make a family outing and all go to the driving range. He agreed! So we loaded everyone up, along with ezra's clubs and headed out. We had such a great time. Ezra and brent hit a whole bucket of balls, Emersyn snoozed, and i sat back watching and reading! It was a great morning. Such a pretty day to be outside.

Mothers Day

So, I know mother's day has already come and gone, but i wanted to brag on Brent. He brought my mom and I lunch and flowers to plant in the afternoon, after he got off work. Then, he grilled us up some Kabobs that were DELICIOUS.

Emersyn Dawn Eilers

Emersyn is here!! She arrived at 7:30 am on 5-7-09. She weighed in at 7.1 pounds and was 19 3/4 inches long. The delivery was great and quick.. Praise God! Something cool about Emersyn's birthday is that she was born on National Day of Prayer and her bday numbers: 5,7,9 are an odd number combo that only happens three times in a century! Pretty special little girl. We are all doing great and loving and praising God for our new addition. Family of 4!!

Great Monday!

We had such a fun monday! Our good friends Allison and Suzanne came over with their little girls, Harper and Liana. They played hard outside in our new and improved backyard. They chased each other, shot basketball hoops, and played in the sandbox. Then we all went to chic-fil-a and had lunch. It was a good little monday!
Here is a picture of them hanging out by our new tree table. Brent built the patio deck and benches around it.

Fun weekend

We had a great weekend. My great friend Katy Gates and her family came to stay with us. Her husband, Chip, had a soccer tournament so they got to come down and stay with us. I hadn't seen them since Katy was prego with lil Hayden. Now Hayden, is still little, but 4 months old! It was so much fun. We got to go to one of chip's soccer game and cheer him on! Ezra loved it and was trying to kick the extra soccer ball on the field with them. He was sad he wasn't able to participate. Chip's team won the tournament! Yay, chip!!
Ezra had fun with Hayden around too! Gives me a lil inspiration with this second one coming. He wanted to do everything she was doing. He even wanted to hold her on his lap and feed her her bottle. They took a bath together too. He thought that was so fun!
