The newest little Ericson

Kiah Ashlyn Ericson joined our family at 11:52pm on April 19, 2008. We're just starting to get a handle on getting everyone dressed and fed and ready for the day at reasonable hour. Nick's decided to take another week off from work, which is great. He'll still gets a whole month off, and will probably take that later in the summer.

Moira is starting to warm up to the idea that Kiah's here to stay, but she has acted out a little. The most noticeable side effect is a lot more whining out of Moira. So far we're able to still both get some one on one time with her every day, and work hard at making the most out of the time when Kiah is snoozing.
Today we all headed out to Moira's school carnival. They had lots of games and little prizes for the kids. We followed up the carnival trip with a stop off at a little park near the house.

Several folks made it up this weekend to see little Kiah. It was great to see everyone and put our deck to use on such a nice afternoon.

What a great little Ericson family! Congratulations to all of you. Moira will figure it out--a little sister is a lot of fun and a huge annoyance at the same time...I think you guys had them at a perfect distance apart. They'll be the best of buds and the worst of enemies!

Welcome, Kiah!
