"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." - Pres. Thomas Monson

Our Baby McKenna is here!!

Well, she wasn't overdue like I'd hoped, but she actually came right on her due date. This was the first time that I went into labor on my own and was not induced. McKenna was 8 lbs. 12 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long. We were shocked since Derek has been our biggest baby at 7 lbs 5 oz. She is such a sweet baby and we're so excited that she's healthy and so cute!


The boys are so in love with her! They love touching and holding her.
She and I came home today and here's the latest picture of her. Who do you think she looks like?

I'm super happy that you found a spare second to post some pics! At first I thought she looked a little like Taylor and now I can't decide. I guess I'll just need lots more pictures! We're thinking of you guys! Love Allie

Oh she is so super sweet!!! Congrats!!!! I am so happy for your little family. Wow, 3 kids that is amazing. I can't wait to get to Utah so I can see you and your new little girl. I love her name and you look so happy. I have no idea who she looks like. It is to hard to tell. Give me a month or two and I will be able to tell you.

I am just so happy for you!!!

She doesn't look like Derek or Taylor... she looks like DAVE!

I am so happy for you guys. What a great blessing! I can't wait to meet little McKenna. (And Madeleine can't wait to play Barbies with her!) :)

So did she come all on her own??? She is really sweet.....as for who she looks like?? I see some of your family, but I don't know Dave that well. SO I guess I am a "don't know yet too"

Looking forward to seeing more pics. And I am not that far away so let me know if you need anything! :)

Congratulations. That is awesome and may I say I do think she is red hot. I think she looks just like you other kids, even though they look different they kinda all look the same too. Welcome to the world of girls. Hang on tight!
