Our First Grand Baby! Kadence is here!

Introducing Kadence Knowlton!
6/27/10

On Sunday morning about 12:45 a.m. the phone rings and it's Dallas on the other end telling us that Valerie is in the hospital and is going to have a baby shortly. Prior to this, Valerie had to go on bed rest two weeks ago because she was going in to pre-labor and it wasn't time for the baby to be born yet. Her doctor was also gone on vacation so she had to take it easy and stay down. It wasn't that easy for her, she got bored, but her sister Tiffany took some movies, puzzles, coloring books and what ever else she could think of so Valerie had plenty to do. On June 27, at 5:08 a.m. in the morning on Sunday, Kadence Knowlton came into the world with lots of red hair, like her dad, weighed 5 lbs, 15.2 oz and 18 inches long. Tiffany, Dale and I drove out to Clearfield to see our first Grand daughter and hold her. Tiffany was driving and we made pretty good time. Valerie looked tired and so did Dallas. Kadence was so tiny!! I couldn't believe that Dale and I were finally Grandparents! Tiffany had to hold her first. And did she have fun holding the little bundle. I forgot how tiny they are. Then I took a turn. Dale took one to, but he wasn't sure if he wanted to hold something that tiny. When I held her, I just looked at that tiny face and couldn't believe she was finally here. She came a month early, but she was looking really good and breathing on her own. Our family is starting to get bigger now! I think it will be so fun to be a grandmother! Tyler was excited to get and e-mail from me Monday morning starting with: Dear Uncle Tyler, and then we sent him some pictures. Here are some pictures. Enjoy.

Grandpa Dale and Grandma Becky with Kadence.
Not sure what Kadence will call us when she grows up.
We will just have to wait and see.


I just love this picture of Dale with his daughter
and little grand daughter Kadence.
