Hey all I know you have been waiting for this. James Allen Emmett was born Tuesday the 28th at 4:33 p.m. He weighted 8lb 5 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. Here are some pictures of him in the first couple days. We are both as well as can be expected. The kids are completely in love with him and were so excited when we brought him home today.

Joe got his motor bike up and running the other day, So Crystal got her first ride. Joe's Dad use to give the kids rides on their birthdays and so I gave in and let Joe give Crystal a ride in the alley. She LOVED it. Clayton just loved wearing the helmets. Joe had is Birthday this week so we had a party with lots of food and friends. We had a really good time. We even wrangled the Elders into coming in for some Cake and Ice cream.( we saw them walking past the house just at the right time).

A couple weeks ago Clayton was looking scraggly so Joe cut his hair and he just wasn't that happy about it.
We are all doing well. Just waiting for the baby to come now. Hope everyone is enjoying the spring.

Hey all, I keep getting asked so I thought I would put out the word. I am 38 weeks today. No baby yet.
Spring is starting to come. Last night we went on a flower hunt around the yard to find all the tulips that have started to come up. Crystal is so fun, she had to come in and get paper and pen so she could make a chart of how many tulips we found. She checked out 4 science books from the library so we were also looking for the moon to see what shape and color is was but there was no moon to be found when we looked at 8 o'clock.
We had a great weekend with Joe's cousins in Lovell. The kids had a great time playing with some cousins (both kids and adult). Clayton found a quick friend in Jordon and Ryan (both over 20). We had fun finding candy, shooting, 4-wheeling, playing kick ball, going to the park and assorted games.
I am busy trying to get things organized for when the baby comes. One thing I need to get done just in case is writing a talk to Clayton for Primary (his first). He has to give it on the 26th which is two days before my due date. I also am hoping the baby doesn't come between the 22nd-25th because my doctor has to go out of town for a conference. I guess babies come when they come and I can wait until it is ready. This is one thing you don't want to rush. Joe is getting very impatient. He wants the baby here now so he can hold it. Crystal is getting very excited and Clayton is still just not quite understanding the whole thing. He thinks we all have babies in our tummies and after the baby is out of moms tummy he is going to trade me my baby for his.
We love you all and will keep you all posted on all updates that happen.
