Kade and I were pleasantly surprised to have my family drive up from Las Vegas on Saturday to come meet baby Ethan. Shelley and Val and family were in town visiting Grams and Papa in Las Vegas so we were lucky enough to have lots of visitors. Shelley came with Val, Tanner, Whitney, Aubrey and Zack. All the kids had fun taking turns holding the baby as did Shelley and Val. It was fun to have them come visit and really meant a lot to us. After their visit, Shelley and Val took the kids,
including Kellin, to our clubhouse swimming pool and let the kids swim for a while. This was great because it gave Kellin a break from the hospital and gave me and Kade some time together with the baby. After Shelley's family left, we were visited by Chrissy (which I didn't get a picture of) and she had the honor of changing the baby's first diaper! It was fun to sit and visit with Chrissy while Kade took a little nap. Papa, Jeff and Jacob came next to visit and also enjoyed meeting baby Ethan
and holding him. Jeff had just returned from Alabama where he was going through a work training so it was fortunate that he was in town to come up for a visit. And very nice of him to come, since he had been traveling the previous day and was going to be leaving for California the next day. After the kids were done swimming, the Throckmorton family, Jeff and Zack had to head back to Las Vegas while Papa and Jacob met Grams at our house. Kellin had a birthday party to go to so
Kade took him home while Ethan and I rested at the hospital. After going out to dinner, Kade, Papa, Grams and Jacob along with Kade and Kellin came back to visit at the hospital. Grams enjoyed meeting the new baby and holding him. Grams stayed with us for almost a week and was so helpful not only with the new baby but also with meals and Kellin. Grams had lots of special toys and games for Kellin to play and worked really hard to help Kellin adjust to the new baby. She also had our couches cleaned for us, which we so appreciated because after a couple years with a toddler they had gotten quite dirty. We just want to say that we are so grateful for the visits from our family, it means so much to us to have that love and support!
