The Leisy & Kent Baby Pool!!!

For those of you who have been waiting to hear... LEISY AND KENT HAD THEIR BABY TODAY!!! It's another BOY! Hurray for them! Another quick labor and delivery for Leisy. She started having contractions this morning around 5 and taught seminary (yeah, she's crazy)then headed to the hospital. She was already at a 5 when she arrived and went from that to a 9 and 1/2 in no time. They barely had time to get her an epidural. A couple pushes and the new baby Miller was out! 7 lb 5oz and 20" long! Just like Sophie(Sophie was a little taller actually, but look at her Daddy!). We're so excited for them and to announce our winners, we had a 4-WAY-TIE. Here are the names: KATHY STARKEY (aka: yaya and mommo and Craig's mom). She suggested something biblical like Eli or Moses or Samuel so that they would fit in with the natives (the Amish). Uncle Dave with a name suggestion of Baby Bob. Bridger Howell with a name suggestion of Joseph. Also Uncle Johnny with a name suggestion of Bevan. Here are the other entries:

Thanks to all the participants and to Leisy and Kent for having another surprise baby to add to the family fun and suspense! I'll have to decide if the winners should pick a number between 1-100 or if they should all receive lesser prizes. Let me know what you think?

Maybe you could have a cookoff and have the four winners send you a yummy treat. Just a suggestion...

Amy, is that your sister? Oh, how did you do today during church? I chatted with Craig and he said that last time you had to go it alone it went well. I'm sure you had tons of people to help you b/c you are VEEERRRY popular! hehe
