Sweet Baby Kate

We will be blessing Baby Kate on February 1st here in Pocatello. Friends and family are welcome if you are interested in coming.

December is almost over!!!

We've had the most busy month that a family could possibly have. We have had a baby, moved to another state, started a new job, celebrated Christmas, totaled our 4 runner, bought two new cars and are settling into a new house. CRAZINESS!!! I don't think that life could be more eventful than it has been. And the month is not quite over. Ahhh!

We are loving our new little baby Kate. She is 3 weeks old and is just a little angel. She rarely cries and is almost always content. Read and Gage just love to hold her and kiss her and, of course, they bug her too. We feel so blessed to have her in our family.

Our house is coming along. Thanks to help from family, most of our boxes are unpacked and it is starting to look like a home. We even have pictures on the wall (Thanks Dad!) My parents, Andy's Mom and my sister Jamie and her husband have been out to help. Thanks so much guys! We've even had some company in the two short weeks that we've been here. Andy's sister Amy, her husband and two kids stayed with us for a night. My brother David and his wife, Celena came up for a day to visit and see our sweet baby. My good friend Darci, whom I know from Colorado brought her two kids to come visit too.

Andy is enjoying his job although it's lots of work. He is with the same company, Spring Communications, working as a regional manager for the Idaho/Wyoming region. Needless to say, he travels a lot! He's got stores in Twin Falls, Burley, Pocatello, Idaho Falls, Blackfoot, Jackson Hole Wyoming and several others that I don't remember. He comes home tired and is on the phone A LOT!! We're thankful that he's been blessed with a good job and that he's working so hard to provide for our family.

On his way to work a week ago, Andy hit a patch of ice and slid right into the guard rail keeping him from going into the Snake River. He was pretty shaken up but was not injured amazingly enough. We are so grateful! Our Toyota 4Runner was totaled in the accident. Our family doesn't fit in our Honda so we had to buy two new cars. I am sad to say that I am now a "minivan Mom."

Our newest addition...Baby Kate

Baby Kate Warner was born December 5th, 2008 at 11:37 am. She weighs 5 Lbs. 15 oz and is 19 inches long. She has some beautiful brown hair and just the cutest little body you've ever seen. What an angel she has been! Read and Gage were excited to "carry" her. It was cute to see the connection that the boys had with her. They love her. She is such a joy and we are excited to be taking her home Sunday morning. Then Wednesday we will drive her to our new house in Idaho. CRAZY times!!!

BABY TIME!!!

I just got home from a doctor appointment where I had an ultrasound to check the growth of the baby. Now I'm headed to the hospital to be induced. Baby's growth has stopped so the best thing for her is delivery. Wish me luck!!

A while after Andy layed Read down for bed tonight, he went up to check on him. He had built this cool thing out of legos. He said, "Look Dad! I built Idaho." These kids are so excited to move closer to cousins. That's all Gage talks about when we bring up Idaho. I'm glad they are looking forward to the move. If I wasn't 37 weeks pregnant, I might be more excited about it. Will the baby be born in Colorado, Wyoming or Idaho? Hopefully not on the way through Wyoming. Ahhhh!

We're MOVING! Ahhhhhh!

So the latest news from the Warner clan is that we're moving. "What great timing" you may say! Yes, I am 37 weeks pregnant and moving to another state in one week. What crazy lives we have right now. Andy is accepting a promotion within his company to be a regional manager with Spring Communications over the Idaho/Wyoming region. He is both excited and nervous for the new challenge. We found a great house in Pocatello and are excited to have a little more space for our kids to play outside. We will be closer to my family and closer to Andy's family. The boys are so excited to live closer to Grandparents, aunts, uncles and especially cousins. I am still teaching aerobics until two days before we move. Hopefully I don't go into labor. Today our Relief Society sisters came to help me pack up....what a blessing! They are such angels! It's been quite challenging (being so pregnant) to box this house up but keep it in showing condition at the same time. We are so blessed to have an amazing support group within our ward. They are like family to me and we will miss them so much! I'm almost positive that there's not a better ward out there.

Anyway, we'll keep you all posted on our adventures in Idaho. The move date is December 10th (14 days before my due date) Ahhhhh!! For those of you who live near Pocatello, we would love some visitors!
