After 26 hours of labor, Kyle Christopher Harker was born on February 3rd, 2008 at 2:03 am via C-Section. He weighted 8 lbs 7 oz and was 20 3/4 inches long. He spent his first 3 days in NICU with pneumonia and on antibiotics but he is now a very healthy, growing boy! He is certainly the light of my life and I can't tell you how incredibly lucky I feel to be so blessed with such a wonderful gift.
At a BBQ we went too, Kyle found a friend! At first these two fought constantly over who got to sit in the power wheels car. The other kid usually won because he pushes!
Eventually, our friend Erik showed them that they could BOTH sit in the car WHEW!
We had a big family bbq and fireworks fun on the fourth of July
All of the kids swam and played in the sun
Grandpa took a turn holding Kyle while the other adults lit fireworks. Kyle didn't seem to mind any of the loud BOOMS and he LOVED the fireworks show!
I carefully lit a sparkler and held it for Kyle
By the end of the evening, Kyle was one tired little boy! While I was putting him to bed he could still hear the fireworks outside. He looked up at me, smiled and said "BOOM"!
