The King Family

:)!!! She will most likely have her daddy wrapped around her little finger in no time at all! It is so amazing and such a privilege to live close enough to enjoy my grandchildren as they are growing up.

Happy Easter.

Only 4 months and 12 days until we welcome the newest member of our family-seems like it was just yesterday that I received the exciting news!

I am so glad to hear that the transition to preschool is going well and that Ethan is so excited about going.

Even though I see them on a fairly regular basis, it is still so amazing that the boys are growing up so fast. Yeah for Eli. I am looking forward to hearing about Ethan''s experience at open house.

Oh my goodness! I knew he was getting close...how much more fun things are going to be!

Sure had a wonderful Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas.

Ethan has started calling me "Mimi" because that is what Alexis calls me and he wanted to make sure that she knew I was HIS Mimi. Sometimes he still calls me ''Bemaw" and that is fine, too. I really enjoy spending time with the boys...homework is getting to be such a drag...I would much rather spend my extra time with Ethan and Eli! We had a great Thanksgiving and I can only imagine how excited they were when it snowed. I was too!

What a privilege I had spending the weekend with my grandsons and "granddogs"! We had a great time even tho'' Grandma couldn''t get the picture on the big screen to come back on after the storm!!!!!

I sure enjoyed the cook-out last Saturday evening even though the weather turned a little cool. I had great fun playing with Ethan and Eli as well as meeting the newest "family member", Sophie.

I enjoyed having Ethan, Eli, and Lexi. Lexi sure enjoys being around babies! She thinks she is big enough to take care of Eli. Granchildren are so much fun!
I am so glad for the progess Ethan is making with potty training.
Love to you all

Yeah!!!! Eli--turning over is just the begining of all many new adventures...you''ll be on the run soon, keeping up with big brother and maybe out-running him! Lots of Love.

Yea!!!! Congratulations to Ethan. I am so proud of you. I am looking forward to seeing you and brother soon. I love you.

Eli,
You are such a precious little boy. I know that Nanny is so happy that she had the opportunity to be here when you were born and that she has been able to spend some time with you, Ethan and Mommy and Daddy. We love you.

I am looking forward with excitement to Eli''s arrival...the next few weeks will pass quickly for most of us but I know they do not seem to go so quickly when you are the one who is in the final weeks of pregnancy!

Hello precious little one. We are looking forward to your arrival.

Thank you for the new pictures. They are adorable.

Happy Halloween!
Hugs and kisses from me to you.

Wow, just two more days and we will be celebrating Ethan''s 2nd birthday! I have so much fun spending time with him. Last night he was asking "why?" After he finished eating, he stood at the back door and talked to Bobby, the little neighbor boy who has out on the porch next door! They were carrying on quite a conversation.

Good Morning,
I am looking forward to the new pictures. Ethan is growing up so fast. He has sooo much personality!
Love to you all

Congratulations, I am so excited for you and looking forward to another precious grandbaby-its such a special event My prayers along with many others are with you.

I had fun seeing Ethan today. I can''t believe how well he gets around! You have your hands full. Call us sometime!:) Amy

I can''t believe how big Ethan is getting. I hope we get to see you all a little more often (especially while on Christmas break). Let''s go sleddin in the 20 feet of snow we are getting!!!!!

A year has passed since Ethan arrived. Seems just like yesterday that we were all waiting with such anticipation adn now we are celebrating his first birthday. He is such a joy and delight. I hope you had lots of fun at the zoo. Happy birthday! Love you lots.

The pictures are so cute!!! He cracks me up with the hair do picture. We had fun at the lake with him. I can''t wait until we can actually stay longer!!! Oh I love the house. I''m so excited and I think some painting is do on my end so give me a call. Love ya, Amy

Your new house looks really nice. I see you have a patio for drinking pepsi...Looks like a nice sized yard for the boys to camp in too.

What great photos & wonderful memories being created. Congratulations on your next big step-buying your first home. I am looking forward to the grand tour.

Ethan is getting so big!! What a cutie and such a cute personality!! It won''t be long and he will be running around playing with the other cousins. He is growing up fast Sara.

Such precious pictures. Happy First Easter, Ethan. Love,

Oh, he is just so cute. What a great smile!! Love you all-can''t hardly wait for more.

Oh my gosh that picture on your home page Ethan looks so much like Junior!!! Especially the nose and mouth. And he is smiling how cute, he must have filled his diaper.

Can''t believe you are all grown up and have a baby of your own!!! Seems like yesterday I was holding you in my arms. Well mom, you did good. NOw all the fun begins . He''s a doll and we all love him!! We''re here for all three of you if you need anything. YOU guys are going to be great parents. We love you all!!
Love, Grandma Hammer

Hey Guys!!

He is so cute!! Sorry I didn''t get a chance to visit you more than once in hospital but I was thinking of you even if I couldn''t be there. I''m sure you had plenty of visitors. Anyway- I''m so glad he is finally here and I can''t wait to hold him and I hope they get things figured out with you Sara.

Sara and JR

Okay, I know you''re busy, but we need some baby pics on here!!!!
Anyway, congratulations. Scott and I are so happy for all three of you. He is so beautiful. Isn''t it amazing? If you need anything give me a call. I''ve got some ideas for pictures whenever you guys are ready. Lots of love, Holly

Congratulations!!!!!!!!

Ethan is beautiful. This is truly a cherished event beyond description, a blessing indeed. As much as I enjoy seeing & holding my first grandchild, it is also a joy to watch you, JR & Sara, with Ethan. You are & will be great parents.
All my love,

Okay now he has really dropped!! Wow what difference a week makes!!

Sara-

Looks like he has dropped some!!! Not much longer.

WOW,
It seems like just a few days ago that you announced your news that I was a grandma!! And now it isn''t much longer before we are holding & cuddling Ethan. Seeing other friends grandbabies & holding little Seth (5 days old) yesterday just makes me more excited to experience grandmahood for the first time!
With all my love and support.

sara,
i am happy you are having a baby boy. i love all my cousins. can i hold him please?
love,
annabel
i saw your belly.

So it''s a boy!! That''s great we''ll take another one. A few more and we''ll have a football team. Maybe next time it will be girl but if it''s not we''ll take another boy. Now I can start buying blue. Poor Annie will have to be rough and tough with all these boy cousins and a brother. I have a feeling she will do just fine. We will love it no matter what it is. LIttle boys are fun and full of surprises. You said all along it was a boy. Guess you take after your mom in more than one way. Can''t wait until October. Love, Mom

Sara,

Look at that tummy!! Just wait til that baby is moving everywhere and it feels like he or she is doing aerobics. That is really fun to watch and feel. I can''t wait to find out if the baby is a boy or a girl!!! And I can''t wait to hold a tiny one again, I miss that a lot now. Congrats and I know that you and Junior will be great parents. I''m here to talk if you need me. Love Ya! Danielle

Sara,
This is a neat site! I can''t believe we are both going to have babies! I hope it''s a boy for you, but secretly Ashlyn wants you to have a girl for her. :) We love you guys. Let us know if you need anything. Oh and I love the nursery set! Love, Amy

Your sticking it out aren''t you? Just kidding . I can tell it''s for real. I can''t wait to see the babies room when you get it all ready, I know it will be really cute. Wish you guys all the luck and happiness .
