Kaylee Ann Whitworth

 Sweet baby girl Kaylee Ann Whitworth was born on July 8th 2013. She weighed 8 pounds 7 ounces and measured in at 21 inches long.  She has lots of dark brown hair and slate blue eyes.  She also has very long fingers and toes... definitely a Whitworth.  She did great!  I got to hear her scream while they cleaned her up and took care of her next door.

 Tyler got to bring her back in while they finished stitching me up.  The c-section went really well.  Dr. Pead said there is no scar tissue build up in the uterus so we are go for another baby! (ha ha not for a while!)

 Clark and Addison are very proud siblings.  Kaylee looks just like Addison described with lots of dark hair like hers.  That little girl has a lot of faith.  I kept trying to prep her saying that we didn't know what color her hair was going to be.  :)  Kaylee and Addison even have matching mismatched ears. Their left ears are a little scrunched on top compared to their right ears.  It is so cute! Clark wasn't quite as sure about her but did give her a kiss before he left. 

 Proud Grandma Tonks holding sweet Kaylee.  The kids are having a blast with Grandma while we are away.  We get to see Grandma Whitworth aka Kathy/Mom soon for visits along with more family later this week.  We can hardly wait!

 Proud Papa!  Tyler is so good with our babies.  He has changed all but one diaper so far and Kaylee is a great pooper! :)

 Sweet Girly!

 She has been such a good little baby so far... She is even content being awake and not eating which is awesome! We love you Kaylee and are so grateful you made it to our family safely!

We are still surviving!

So it's been super duper hot.  Here is just one of the many water fights we have had lately...

So Addison and Clark absolutely love blankets.  They each have a couple of "special" ones .  I decided a while ago that for their younger sibling gift I wanted them to have something to snuggle.  :)  So I made these larger soft blankets for them out of cuddle fabric and flannel.  They will be a little warm this summer but should be fun for winter.  They are already a big hit!!! Addison is so excited for the new baby she can hardly stand it.  We had to make a count down chain to baby's birthday (c-section day) unless she decides to come sooner she will be here July 8th around 7:30 am... One week from tomorrow... I haven't been sleeping very well the last few nights thinking about it all.  It's like a lead up to Christmas!  I didn't get this with either of the others because both came earlier than expected due to pre-clampsia, but so far blood pressure and everything is cooperating.

Tyler and Kids

 It was so fun.  I looked out the window and saw this at the end of May.  Clark and Tyler were tackling and tickling each other.  Tyler also did airplane.  I started snapping pictures through the window.  A few minutes later Addison and our dog Lulu joined in.  :)  I love Tyler's disgusted look as Lulu licks his ear and face... Tyler sure adores Addison and Clark so much and they love him too.  He is such a good Dad.  He is so good about letting them "help" with things even though really it isn't helpful.  Clark loves to help dad dig in the dirt trying to finish our rock patio and also mow the lawn along with other chores.  The kids also helped me out getting ready for everybody coming to the dance recital.  Addison and Clark washed the windows inside and scrubbed the tub and swept and mopped.  They were very helpful.  ;)  I just hope they still enjoy it in a few years.

Addison's Dance Recital 2013

These first eight pictures are the "professional" pictures that were taken for Addison's dances.  Two of Addison's dance team weren't able to make it to the pictures.  The one girl that is with her is Elena.  The girls had a lot of fun doing them...

 Here are some pictures of the bbq we had in between the rehearsal and recital.  So many loved ones came it was so fun!  Grandma and Grandpa Whitworth, Aunt Amy, Aunt Hilary and family, Grandma and Grandpa Tonks plus us of course.  Most came down from Idaho... A long ways to see Addison in two dances out of thirty-seven...

 Here is Addison on the first dance which was her jazz number called Tip Toes.  Addison is picking a wedgie :) Got to love it!  The girls were a little lost but did get some of the actual dance in.

 These pictures below are of Addison's ballet dance.  They danced the Sugarplum Fairy dance from the nutcracker.

 Nickale was Addison's dance teacher.  She was great!  We didn't however appreciate most of the dancing and music  of the older classes, so if Addison wants to do dance next year we will find a different studio. Too much bootie dancing for us ;)
