Love My Kids

By -
When Emma was born, and for the first 2 1/2 years of her life, Savanna would tell me that Emma was the cutest, prettiest person in our family. She would tell me how much she loved Emma all the time. Well, the other day Savanna was thinking out loud, and said "I wonder if Porter will still be cute when he is 3, or if he will just be annoying." I laughed and asked her if she thought Emma was still cute, or if she was just annoying. She told me that she is pretty annoying, but still a little cute. (In Savanna's defense, Emma really likes to tease her sisters, so I can understand that she is probably really annoying.)

Last Sunday we were in Sacrament Meeting, and during the opening prayer Emma could be heard saying "Porter, close your eyes. Porter, close your eyes. Porter, close your eyes, etc..."
When the prayer was over she turned to me and said, "Mom, Porter didn't close his eyes!"

Madalyn is a really great helper. She really has a talent with helping with her siblings. It is so great to have her around to help me when my hands are full.

You are so smart to write all the funny things they say down! I love that Savannah says exactly what is on her mind!

Nick and I put an offer on a house here in our neighborhood, and they accepted our offer. We are going to close on the 28th of May. We can't wait! We are praying that everything goes well between now and then so it can become ours. We are really happy about the house. It is a 5 bedroom house with a nice yard that has a garden spot and raspberries. I am so excited about the garden area. My girls will still be able to go to their same school, so they are really excited to get this house. We feel really good about this house after all our looking!

We have BIG news!

We are going to have another little boy. I am 20 weeks along, and found out today that our baby is a boy. We are pretty excited. Savanna and Madalyn really wanted the baby to be a boy. We let them come to the ultrasound to see the baby, and afterwards Savanna told me she was really lucky. I asked her why and she told me that she always gets what kind of baby she wants. She really wanted Emma to be a girl, and now we're having what she wants again. I told Emma that we are going to have a little baby boy, and she told me "I don't want that kind." I asked her what she wanted and she said " A baby girl!" Oh well, you can't make everyone happy. Nick and I are excited and we are all going out to eat tonight to celebrate.

Porter Harrison Kelly was born Saturday, April 24 th by c-section. He was 6lbs 14 0z. and 19 inches long. We named him after his brother, who we feel has been here with him, helping him fight for life. He seemed to have some trouble with his lungs so they brought him to the NICU . To make a long story short, he kept going down hill, and found himself first on a ventilator and then an oscillating ventilator. He hemorrhaged in his lungs, had to be on blood pressure meds , and had to have numerous tests done on his brain, heart, and lungs. They think that he got an infection, but will never know for sure because many of the tests were inconclusive. Thankfully he is doing much better, and should be home in a couple of days. He was one sick kid, but so cute. I didn't get to hold him for a few days, almost a week after his birth. It was heaven being able to finally hold him. Here are some pics of our little guy. Nick had to wear some pretty cool things over his clothes for the
