Kyla's new room

Kyla got moved to another room, so we had to do a room make-over for her. After room looking, she found one that she really liked and wanted That one:

So Kim and I had a painting day and Kyla was excited to be able to help paint and she did a pretty good job. She splatter painted her curtains with black paint and helped paint the walls Pink, her favorite color!!! While there are still bits to finish up, these 2 walls are ready to show:

Baby News

Valerie was over this weekend and this is her last pregnancy picture:

Hey! if it rains, Kaleb doesn't need an umbrella, he just sits underneath Valerie's stomach.

Valerie went to the hospital to be induced Tuesday morning. She had to be there at 6 am. She was able to get her drugs, so the labor went really good and pretty painless. It took a couple hours of pushing, which made for a long day (guess it was quite comfy in there and wasnt sure if it should come out or not) but at about 8:00 pm, the baby made it's arrival And..............It is a BOY!!!!! Zachary Thomas Lightheart.

9 lb, 4 oz and 20 in. long

Allissa was able to put on the very first diaper on Zachary, with many many more to come. She will be a great Big Sister.

Mom and Dad are both very excited and doing just great:
Kim and Allissa were both able to be her coaches and be in the room to see the birth. They both did a great job coaching Valerie.
So, this is grand child # 8 and we think that Zachary is a pretty handsome guy already. Nothing more exciting than a new baby to spoil and then send home with Mom and Dad, LOL We will have fun on Father's day this year, :-)
