Family Time with Keira

Keira's arrival provided a wonderful occasion for our family to all get together at Jason & Julia's for the weekend of May 15th. Julie flew up and Mom & Jess & David drove down, and it was a very fun reunion centered around the new baby girl of the family!

Kaden and Serena playing together...or at least in close vicinity of one another! ;)

Me with little Keira

We stopped at KFC to pick up food for lunch and then went to the park to enjoy it outside. The kids had fun swinging. Kaden got lots of 'underdogs' from Aunt Julie and then showed us how he could climb on the playset and go down the slides!

Serena & I

Serena was very attached to me all weekend, wanting to be held constantly and sleeping fitfully. I was so glad I had my sling along, otherwise I'm sure my arms would have fallen off! I was a little puzzled by her behavior, but chalked it up to all the naps we were skipping left and right not to mention the late nights and busy days. However, the day after we got home, Jordan discovered that she had a brand new tooth (her third) that had poked through! It's on the top and over to the side, so I just hadn't noticed it AT ALL! I was so surprised that she had done the whole teething thing unbeknownst to us, but I was a little relieved to have an explanation for her clinginess over the weekend!

We had a lovely little bonfire on Jason & Julia's new patio. It was pretty chilly out, though!
