Updates and Plans.

This week Kyla and Luella are participating in Vacation Bible School at Lord of Life Lutheran Church. Kyla is the cookie and juice lady. Luella is in the nursery. So many people are amazed that Kyla is helping out the last week before Katja arrives. Kyla forgot she volunteered last February to be the cookie lady, since that was the last time we talked VBS with the coordinator. Oh well. It's sit at home or do minimal work to help out the hungry and thirsty kids for 3 hours during the day.
Kyla had her last OB appointment and pre-operation consultation today. Everything looks set and ready for our scheduled c-section on Wednesday morning. Last night she had a tour of the labor and delivery ward. Starting today they are implementing a new security system that involves a PIN number from the parents of the newborn to all visitors. So if you want to visit us in the hospital, call our cell phones for the PIN number.
Tim is hanging his hat in Texas, getting rained on from the last tropical storm "E". He's setting everything up for an exercise they are doing later this fall. He'll be back on Friday.
Kyla's family is driving up over the weekend and staying the next two weeks. Along with meeting the new baby, they are site seeing in DC, Philly and Baltimore. Sunday, August 17th we're also baptising Katja since her Godparents will be here.
Pray we're all healthy and surgery goes as planned with no surprises!

KIDS!

Luella picked out her own outfit. She was cold, so long sleeves and pants. Then she was hot, so flip-flops. She loves her hat, so that worked in her mind too. Katja just looking cute, so had to take her picture too! Bath time for the girls and Luella decided that making Katja's hair stick straight up means she's a boy. We really don't know where she gets this from! Sorry if you're offended by the baby nudity/ inadvertent mooning.

Tim plays Army in WV.

Image
This is the Center for National Response. It's right off I-70 in West Virginia. It was part of the interstate, but the tunnel thru the mountain was too difficult for the state to maintain , so they let people train in there. They can make it rain, blow wind up to 40 mph, fires, explosions, all kinds of awesome training. Here's Tim's company at the entrance to the tunnel. Tim was playing Army while we were hosting Ginger before her big move. Tim and April Miller - team leaders discussing their missions from the day. Tim and his company commander, MAJ Alex Lovase discussing football, or something. Take cover! They have paintball gun attachments to their weapons so you can see where you got hit. One of the missions was to rappel down this hill... Then wade thru this tunnel for 1/4 mile in icy cold water to get to the objective site... As you can see, it was a really long day. Tim was the commander for this mission. The Soldiers had to traverse thru a collapsed tunnel....

Early Birthday Celebrations! (8/6/11)

Image
Kyla found Goobers sleeping on Kati's diaper changing table this morning. He was so cute laying there, Kyla had to get the girls in on a the picture too. We decided to spend this Saturday afternoon celebrating Kati's birthday. We went to see Cars 2 in the movie theater. It was cute, but like most sequels, the original was better. Kati had a coupon for a free meal to Famous Dave's. It came with a Roman candle! Look at the shocked expression on her face with the BIG CANDLE! Kati tried to blow out her candle, but it just wouldn't stop! Luella on the other end of the flames wondered if she really needed her eyebrows! This kid loves her ice cream! Happy early 3rd birthday Katja Johanna!
