Baby Almond

I know I know... it's been forever since I have updated my blog.. this summer has been CRAZY! Here is our most exciting news... On August 19th we finally got our new baby!! We named him Easton Scott Almond. He was born at 4:18 pm weighing 6 pounds 10 ounces and was 20 inches long. My doctor was very kind and let me be induced early so I was started at 12:00 and 4 hours later the baby was here. He is a good baby... he loves to be held and will just snuggle right up to anybody. Ashlan is a great big sister she loves him... as long as he isn't stealing too much of her attention. Here are a few snapshots.. we will post some better pics soon!

Grandma and Grandpa!!!!

Daren's parents have been gone for the past year and a half on a mission to Fiji.. They got home a week ago. We went to the airport to pick them up and Ashlan ran right up and gave them big hugs... she was so excited to see her "gama and gampa"! We are living in their house with them while we are waiting for ours to get finished and Ashlan can't get enough of her grandparents.. poor Grandma has a CONSTANT shadow.. Ashlan always has to know where her grandparents are and what they are doing. She is their best "Helper" :) She is loving it!

Ashlan and Daddy watching for the airplane!!

Fun in the Sun!!

This picture pretty much sums up how much Ashlan LOVED the pool!!

We took Ash to the pool for the first time this summer she had soooo much fun.. She was dancing and laying in the water and couldn't stop smiling the entire time we there.. It was great!

I am sure we will be posting more pool pics later.. hopefully they are better than these :)
