Family Time

Since Alyson's graduation was at 8am, we had an entire day to spend together as a family. Nate's Uncle Larry (AKA Uncle Buck) and Aunt Carol Holstein live in Spokane and invited us over for the day and an amazing lunch/dinner. This was the first time we had seen there home and it was beautiful. It was the perfect way for Great Grandma & Grandpa to see Baron in action! He played and read books and had a great time.

At one point in the afternoon Baron decided he needed a high five from everyone in the room. Here is a picture of him giving one to Uncle Buck.

While we were enjoying the day, we were also patiently (okay - not so patiently) waiting for an update from Kevin. It turns out that Susie's water broke that morning and they were headed to the hospital. In fact at one point Nate and I were discussin how long it had been since we had an update and failed to notice our son take off running down a hill. He eventually lost control, rolled a few times and then landed in a pile of dirt. Thank goodness he stopped. It was not our finest parenting moment, but it was sure funny after the fact! We learned on our way home the Caleb Alan Prchal was born on May 8th. He weighed 6 lbs and 4oz and was 19 inches long.

The next day we were packing and Grandma and Great Grandma offered to keep Baron busy. They were looking at a photo album from our trip to Maui. Everytime Baron saw a picture of us on the beach he would sign "please" to his Grandma. I guess he is ready for his second vacation!
