Happy Birthday To Susan











Since we have a few birthdays right in a row my blogging skills are getting better because I have had to blog these so close together. At least it is not quite so hard to figure out what to do when I sit down to work on this. I still am a dumbey when it come to making it cute and functional with pictures stacked and videos and such. You'll just have to be glad I can get pictures on the blog. I even figured out how to get them from old slides. Now that is hard but with a little help from Sam's club I did it. So here is the few I picked out of Sue's first entrance to life. Now she is a mom herself. As you know she is the baby of the family. It is fun to see the siblings watch over her in these pictures and remember that as an actual thing that happened. They though it was so fun to have a new baby. We all enjoyed Susan so much because everyone was older and could appreciate a baby and help with her. A little like Emma and Bea are in their families.

Happy Birthday Rob


We want to wish Rob the best birthday. He is getting pretty old now and so we have to remind him that he was once a child. Here he is the first born of the children of Kay and Cecile. Just a few highlights of his arrival. He was delivered by his grandfather Dr. Drostan Baker in Idaho Falls but we lived in Provo Utah. He decided not to come on time and was 5 days late when Grandpa decided he was a big enough baby and induced labor. He was definitely a big enough baby he was 9lbs. 10oz. almost full grown. Since it was my first delivery I decided that he would be an only child. He was very hard to deliver I was about ready for C section when my dad said give it all you got and then Rob came. He has been a great first born. The best big brother example we could have for the rest of the children. We love you Rob.
