Remember Us?




ZACHARY IS HERE! 




 He was born last Friday, September 5th.  Eight pounds and eight ounces at 20.5 inches long.  Happy healthy chunky monkey!  So it is official, we now have our coed basketball team in the making.  
Amie and the kids are all staying with Amie's mother so our home would be easier to show (hopefully sell)  and for the support she needs.  (since her dead beat husband is across the country) 

I flew in on Thursday night and stayed until Wednesday.  Amie's sister Tammy is flying in to stay a week to help as well.  (Thank you Tammy!)  Then some of Amie's great friends are helping out as well until Amie recovers.  

Our home in Houston has still not sold,  which is the only real hick-up in our grand plan.  But it is a big hick-up that has caused some rough times.   Mainly, Amie and the kids staying in Houston longer than we wanted while I start work in Denver.  

 
Benjamin rides the bus to preschool each morning and really enjoys it.  He showed everyone including the bus driver his new baby brother "Wackery"  aka  Zachary.   The girls are definatly growing up to their own individualls.  And Julia has supprised me the most.   When I came up to Colorado she had taken only one step.  Now she is walking all over the house, throwing dipers away for Amie, throwing clothes and shoes in the trash for Amie... well she is trying to help.   

 
Thank you all for your prayers and help.  We are blessed to have such great family and friends!
