Life at the Mueske house!: Some of Larkyn's FIRSTs in life...

Larkyn's First Visitors

My mom and sister Megan, and Shea's mom and sister Megan were able to make the trip to Minnesota to see Larkyn in her first hours after birth. They were all very excited to see her! They left the hospital for a short time and returned with large Kohl's bags full of clothes for Larkyn. I'm pretty sure she will be set for quite a long time with the way they all shop!

Mike and Katie (Mike and Katie are friends ours that we met through church. They are expecting a little boy in May. Mike and Katie were taking the weekend birthing/parenting class the weekend we were in the hospital. We joked for weeks about them being on their Labor/Delivery tour as we are in the hospital. Sure enough it happend! Their instructor was the same instructor we had for our birthing/parenting class so we were able to see her as well!)

Chris and Jessi (Chris and Jessi are friends from Winona State. They currently live in the cities area and were in a church small group with us this past fall. Jessi is a Spanish teacher at Eagan High School. They are expecting a baby girl on March 22nd.)

Grandpa Jim

Grandpa Jim made the trip up Sunday morning to spend some time with Larkyn.

Shannon (Shannon and I teach Kindergarten together at Diamond Path. Shannon has also been a great resource for me during pregnancy. She has two little girls and has provided us with great advice, clothes, toys, etc.)

Kelly

The ladies of the neighborhood decided to leave their husbands and children at home to come and visit baby Larkyn. All of them, with the exception of Kate, thought we were having a boy. I wasn't sure if Jess would really believe us or not when we told her we had a girl!
