Ed and Becky Mitchell Family: October 2008

Tuesday, October 7, 2008

I am an Aunt again!

I would like to welcome the newest member to our extended family. My sister Jenny had her second child (yep another boy!) on Wednesday, Oct. 1. He is very very cute (of course), and I can't believe all the hair. His name is Joseph Eldon Nelson. He weighed 7 lbs. 10 oz. and was 19 inches long. Jenny had him by c-section. Everyone is doing well. I love it that Daniel is going to have a playmate in my family just like Sam (Jenny and I have planned this pretty well so far, and Shelley is keeping right up). Well, we are doing pretty good here at home. Just slowly adjusting to life with three kids. Love to you all!

Birthday's

April is here and with it brings many birthday's. On April 5th Ed turned 36 (shhh, don't tell anyone), and on the 10th Tommy turned 6. The boys had a lot of fun on their birthdays.

For Ed's we went to an indoor go-cart place, and let Ed and his best-friend Darryl go racing. Ed's bosses, Jean and Vaughn, also joined them for some fun. Of course with my belly getting bigger I got to babysit the boys. They had fun playing the video games and watching Dad get his butt kicked by his friend (shhh, don't tell anyone that either).

For Tom's birthday we decided to go bowling. It was a lot of fun for the whole family. Obviously we haven't done it for awhile, and Mom had a little handicap with the stomach. Tom and Sam almost beat their Mom! It was a little embarrasing. Everyone had a good time though.
