Kyles Blessing Day

Kyle was blessed on July 12. We had a combined family dinner at our home after. It was so much fun to have so many of my family there. He is such a cutie, and Brad gave him a beautiful blessing

To busy holding the baby for pictures

I got to take care of Kyle on Tues while Katie went to the dentist. It was so much fun to have some quiet time to get aquainted with my grandson. He does like to be held, and Grandma likes to hold babies. He has such a serious look on his face. He was awake a lot of the time. When Katie came back from the dentist, she looked miserable, she had a root canal done! ouch! So I had her eat some applesause, and chicken noodle soup, and take a nap before she went home. I am not sure how much rest she got, because "The Girls" were there by lunch time. A good time had by all (except Katie)

Mia's first bath

It takes me awhile to get things posted. But what fun I have doing this. Her "Power Cord" is now off.......so we can have even more fun.

From our 5 day sleep over

Way to many pictures to blog, so here are 2 pages from our "Adventures with Grandma and Grandpa" Book. We had a fun five days, and are still having fun as Holly recuperates. Nora and Sara are so much fun to play with. They have such imaginations, and love to pretend. Nora makes up rules to games that are hard to follow, and tells some pretty goofy jokes.

It is so much fun having them close by, I have been spoiled. As they are looking for a new home, I told Nora that the one 2 doors down was for sell, would she like to live there. She was all for living close enough to Grandma to walk to her house. But Holly and Sam didn't share her excitement!

We are loving the adventure days and glad that Holly is getting stronger each day.

Who does she look like?

In the debate as to who little Mia looks like........yes we have a name now! I would like to respectfully submit the following picture. This little one came through the trauma of birth in the 70's, but I think Mia looks like her mom!
Of course I have no bias...Ha. She is so cute. (Mia and Holly). When Mia is hungry, she arches her back and screams, and kicks grandma in the tummy, what fun for me. When Sara held the baby for the first time, she looked at her and said "I think she likes me" The girls have been so fun. When I get my pictures organized I will post our "five day adventure"

She is here

Here she is, yet to be named Baby Girl Rosener. Born at 7:45 Wednesday morning. Tipping the scales at 7lbs. 2 oz 19 inches long (Grandma wins the contest on the Rosener Blog)

Nora still wanted a brother, before we went to the hospital, and Sara decided she didn't want to be a big girl, but wanted to be a baby again. (There are fun times ahead)

Sara wanted to play with and poke the baby instead of holding her. Holly was feeding the baby when we got there and of course Sara wanted to climb in bed with her mom, and kept telling her to let grandma hold the baby!

Grandma got her turn, she is beautiful. I will be glad when they decide on a name, it seems weird still praying for Baby Girl Rosener. So glad she is here, and Holly seems to be doing fine, of course the morphine hasn't worn off yet.

He's Home

We were surprised on Fathers Day...Kyle joined us. He was released from the hospital on Sat. and Brad and Katie kept it a secret, so they could surprise us on Fathers Day.


I don't have a picture of the fathers. This is my sister Janice with the newest member of our family. You can really see the hair cut, but it is starting to grow back.

Four generations of Andersons. My grandson, my mom, my son and me.

I finally got to hold him with out tubes and wires and extra blankets. What a wonderful surprise. I am afraid, Andy and Sam had to finish cooking their fathers day dinner.

Welcome home little one!
