Our Little one has arrived!!!

Well what can I say? This was TOTALLY worth everything!!! Ella Jean Krauth came into our lives officially on August 17th 2009 when we found out that we were pregnant but on May 27, 2010 at 12:10 am Kim and I got to see God's creation first hand. Our little girl is 100% perfect and we love everything about her. This is definitely going to change our lives for the better. We want to thank everyone for their prayer and support, the labor and delivery went well and baby and mom are doing fantastic. Can't wait to share all the new memories with everyone who is willing to listen.

Enjoy the video!

Well Since everyone else posted a blog this weekend

Just trying to kill some time before the big Lost finale and I noticed that all the Jansen/Syers decided to post their weekend life on their blog. And since I pretty much do everything the Jansen/Syers Families do I will post what we did this weekend.

Here's what we did this weekend.

1. Went to America's on friday and got the Denver Hot wings.
2. Then went to Iron Man 2 with Kim and Her sister. (Nothing like sitting in an uncomfortable position for 2 hours to kick start labor)
3. Got up and because Kim won't do her Mary Katherine Lunges I convinced her to do some landscaping with me. (Making kim plant is just as good as squats I guess)
4. Went to Church Prayed that baby would come. Didn't work
5. Mowed the lawn, weeded, put some seed down.
6. Kim went shopping with her mom to get out of the house. Saw lots of cool sales.
7. Anticipating LOST series finale.

Here is What we Didn't do this weekend.

1.HAVE A BABY!!! COME ON!! I'm about to resort to slipping some Castor Oil into Kim's prenatals. ha ha ha

Any way Enjoy the picture of our newly lanscaped bed. One bed down 2 to go.

We have the Fever!!!

So any day now. Any moment. Any Minute. Any Second Kim and I are expecting the birth of our first child. What an amazing feeling. There are feelings of nerves, excitement, fear, joy, and love. We have been so blessed through this entire process and now we are both ready for this new chapter in our lives.

We have been so fortunate to have a new niece in that time frame as well as my sister gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Lia Emily Reitsema. Here is our first vist to their house to see and hold the precious little angel.

Love these women!
