Meeting Everyone

After being born, you have to meet all of your family and friends! So here we go...

Grandpa Bill (my step-dad) Grandma Audrey (my grandma)

Biggest brother Anthony! Who is just so in love with Oliver! He likes to say that if anyone hurts the baby, he will punch them in the face.

Big brother Samuel. When he walked into my room that first day he said to me, "Mom you in the hospital?" I said, "Yes, look remember that baby in my belly?" He noticed that my belly wasn't as big anymore..."Mom you gotta go get another baby!"

We knew that Sam would have a difficult time with this baby, and at first he did. Now, however, he loves him!

Grandpa Norman, and Grandma Ev (my grandpa and step-grandma)

Grandpa Norman is Norman Kendall, the first one with the middle name Kendall. When I told him that Oliver had his middle name he said, "After me? That is so nice." He looked at Oliver with so much love, it just melted my heart. They also put eachother to sleep!

Grandpa Danny (my father)

Grandpa Danny is Danny Kendall the second generation with the middle name Kendall!

My dad was so kind to take Anthony and Sam while we rushed to the hospital at 3 am. He made it over to meet Oliver right after he was born. I love how he holds back emotion when he sees my kids for the first time. And afterwards how he just holds them and stares at them with so much love.

Grandma Shauna (my mother)

She got the phone call while we were on our way to the hospital and had to desparately find a substitute to teach her classes for the day. That proved not to be easy but the secrataries at her school helped her and she was able to stay the whole day. She also took the whole rest of the week off to help with Anthony and Sam. This woman is amazing!

Grandma Margarida (my mother-in-law)

She didn't get the direct phone call because we all thought she was asleep, but just before we went into surgery she came walking in. Her second grandson born with in 5 days! Also her fifth grandson, someone else will have to give her that beautiful granddaughter! Love her so much.
