Beating the Heat

This summer has been really intense with the heat index, especially since we brought Luke home.  The other two boys have been like caged animals.  Luckily we've been trying the beat the heat in the afternoon with our pool in the shade on our deck.

Even Luke didn't mind the outside time in the shade.

TBall

This summer Brady played in the YMCA tball program.  It was for 4 and 5 year olds.  One word to describe it was hilarious.  Not a whole lot of focus from 4/5 year olds!  

Brady was #6.  The same as his hero Ryan Howard!

Kelly's daughter Shaelynn played on another team and she and Brady played each other one game.

The whole O'Donnell family was there so we took a "cousins" picture after the game.

Fun to get out of the house and meet some new friends!

A Kleinsmith Wedding!

This past Saturday on June 30 we celebrated the only Kleinsmith Wedding on our side of the family!

My cousin Ryne married his long standing girlfriend of 9 yrs Lacy.  

At all of the weddings we've had so far, we try to grab a Kleinsmith cousin picture.  Above is the newest version!

We've considered Lacy family for years but it's fun to make it official!

Everyone was able to make it down for the big event!

Luke meets Susannah and Aunt Sarah

Sarah and Susannah made the trip to Iowa to visit and meet Luke. Chris is busy with school and wasn't able to come this time.

All the "Kleinsmith" cousins together!

The babies did really well with this picture!

Although Susannah was small at birth - she is a big girl now compared to Luke!  So fun to have all these cousins!

Hospital photos

If you are interested, the company that takes infant photos in the hospital finally posted Luke on their site.  Go to

They did end up taking some really cute photos!

Anniversary Surprise

Today Brian and I celebrate 6 years of marriage.  Brian surprised me with a romantic lunch in the hospital.  He brought in Red Lobster and had roses.  It was such a fun surprise!  I am so lucky to have found such a wonderful man to share my life with!

Meeting Family

These past couple of days Luke has had a lot of visitors.  It's been so much fun to have family close to love on our new little man.

Luke even met some of his cousins.  Susannah is coming to visit in a couple of days to complete the cousin list!
