Hannah Jennelle Lee is Born

I must say it is a joy to welcome this beautiful little girl into the Lee Family. She was born October 2, 2007 to Jacob and Sabrina Lee. I haven't met her yet. I will be going to Utah to meet her the first of November. She was long awaited for. It is fun to know that Alexis and Hannah will be so close in age. When we have familee reunions- they will have someone to play with.




Natalee and Kapri go to Cheer Camp






This was a fun day. Kapri invited Natalee to go to the Kentlake cheer camp and of course Natalee was so excited. We arrived at 10am and dropped the kids off (April and I). For me it was 4 hours with no kids. It was great. I went to visit Alexis and then to Jakoby's football game with April. We then headed over to Rooter's BBQ- best BBQ ever- to see Verl. Right before 2pm we showed up to pick up the girls and they did a performance of what they had learned. So cute!!! Afterwards we went to April's Dad's Friend's pumpkin patch and picked out some great pumpkins. It was such a beautiful, sunny day. A bit cold but so nice to be out in. Then we headed to grandma and Grandpa's where Natalee had fun helping Grandpa in the yard. That evening we went to the Kentlake football game where the girls got to cheer with the "real" cheerleaders. Natalee didn't last very long- she was tired and cold- but we stayed until half time. By that time it was late and time to go home. It was a busy day but we had a great time with our friends and family.

Nicholas' Allergic Reaction



This was interesting! Nicholas, Natalee and I sat down for a bowl of split peas and popcorn for lunch. Nicholas started coughing and wouldn't eat anymore. I thought he may have choked on a popcorn kernel but he was breathing so I got up to get him something to drink. He didn't want it but I made him drink it because he kept coughing. He immediately threw up, which I found kind of strange. So I undressed him and comforted him. I sat him on a chair while I cleaned up the mess and noticed little hives around his lips. I immediately realized he was having am allergic reaction. So I got the benadryl!!! Good thing i had some. I started seeing his lips and face puff- I felt like i was in a movie. Anyway I wrapped him up in a blanket and called the consulting nurse. At this point he was itching and uncomfortable but at least breathing. The consulting nurse was going to have me go to the ER but could see the benadryl was working and he was getting better. Needless to say- he is OK! But is majorly allergic to split peas. (just so you know split peas are a legume-like peanuts- different from the vegetable peas) Anyway we now have an epi pin, in case it happens again because his throat will most likely close up next time and we'll have to call 9-1-1. Here are the photos of our experience.

Natalee's picture day & Alex meets Alexis!



Natalee loves to dress up but hates to have her hair done. I couldn't believe that she actually let me do both in one day and on picture day too! She looked M-ah- velous! Her pictures turned out really well too!


In our other photo on this page Alex is meeting his cousin Alexis for the first time. He wasn't too thrilled about holding her- a bit nervous, I think! But Alexis was OK with him holding her. The moment lasted long enough to take the picture and then it was over. Alex and Alexis- isn't it fun.

Cousin Mikey's Birthday Party

We had a great time at Mikey's Birthday party. We played games, visited and ate cake and ice cream. It is always fun to celebrate birthday's. It's hard to believe it's been 7 years already. How the boy's have gotten so big and so smart is just fun to watch. Happy Birthday Mike!
