Baby Mackenzie

Hi Everyone,

Meet Mackenzie. She was born January 7. She weighed 5 lbs, 8 oz and was 19 inches long.


She is healthy and was able to come home with us on the 9th.

Building Gingerbread Houses

Paul's family earned points for endurance, since their gingerbread house required rebuilding following a complete collapse at one point. Although it does not show up in the picture here, they even had Ohio spelled out in red M&Ms on the roof. The Wilkes earned points for enthusiasm. Theirs may have been the tastiest...since it was half eaten by the end of the day. It probably did help that they had 5 kids on their team. The Hendrick's gingerbread house got points for teamwork and style. The Hanover house, well, it was big and had a chimney.

This is a picture of when Riley's 2nd cast came off. It looks like it might hurt but it just tickles. Thats why Riley is laughing. He had to get one more put on just so it can finish healing. He will get the last one off at the end of January!

Liam & Arden

Arden is 10 lbs now, I can't believe how fast he is growing! We will be headed home Wednesday the 17th, I can't wait for Arden to meet everyone:)
